Why is my cat coughing?

by yupo
(turkey)

A few minutes ago my cat and I played a little chasing game. Then suddenly she started coughing so hard. Even though I got worried I did my best to calm her down. It stopped but then her voice became weirdly different like it was quite low. Now she is resting. What should I do? Did this happen just because of the chase? I'm really worried. Could you respond as soon as possible, please?

Hairball?
by: Jim W.

It could be just a hairball. Cats will cough and try to hack it up. Sometimes their meow sounds change a little when they have a hairball. On the other hand, if you believe your cat is having some other problem, you probably want to contact a veterinarian. Good luck!
