breathing difficulties

Question
My seven month year old kitten has been breathing heavier than normal and sounds kind of raspy I noticed it more after she was spaded and declawed is this normal or should I get her checked out?  Please let me know what you think and if this could be serious or not   Thank you for your time and effort

Answer
Hi Sabrina!
If she has just had surgery in the past few days ,then it is probably from the tube they put down her throat when she had surgery. They do this to make sure she gets oxygen while she is asleep.  If it has been longer than a week, then you really should call your Vet just to be safe.

God Bless,
