Hermione was sick with a cold and although this sounds like hiccups it is really upper respiratory distress. Steam your kitty by taking them into the bathroom(if feral, get the cat in a carrier then bring them in the bathroom) and turn the shower on hot and let the bathroom fill up with steam.DO NOT get the cat wet and call or take the cat to the vet for antibiotics ASAP. UPDATE: June 03, 2014 - Hermione is now available for adoption through Urban Cat Relief in Toronto, Ontario Canada. Please read her bio here www.ucrcats.com/adopt/?cat_id=...
Update: Life is good now that I am no longer frozen but would be so much better if I had a furever home, with friendly kitties like my new foster family. To think I was sick in the bathroom for months and didn't know all the fun I was missing I have alot of catching up to do...Yours Truly Hermione, The Ex-Frozen Cat

Donations to help with the vetting can be made to Upper Bathurst Animal Clinic by phoning their office at 647-350-6666(tell them it is for the mother and daughter left outside to freeze or my name Lilly). The vets office will tell you or I will update when the bill is paid.
Update Feb 10, 2014- Went to the vet to get more antibiotics and have her frostbite looked at. No hair follicles on her head and neck sadly but maybe she will surprise us all and grow all her fluffy fur back. If not, then we will get her a nice hoodie to wear!
Jan 09 2014 UPDATE and welcome to Gizmo's Hotel HERMIONE(named after the movie Harry Potter), the mom left outside to freeze near Bathurst and Sheppard in Toronto in minus 40 degree weather with wind chill. You are safe in my bathroom, wheezing away as I try and get antibiotics into you. With the help of Joanna , my vet and lots of others, you now have a chance at living:) Her leg issues show arthritis and nothing broken. With great sadness, I must report that her daughter who we named Winnie actually was the one who was deathly ill and she passed away because of her illness(so many things were wrong including a swollen deformed tongue preventing her from eating) She is no longer in pain even though it was such a shock:( Donations to help with the vetting can be made to Upper Bathurst Animal Clinic by phoning their office at 647-350-6666(tell them it is for the mother and daughter left outside to freeze or my name Lilly. The vets office will tell you or I will update when the bill is payed. Thanks you Joanna and Alexandra for your donations already and Marie Lynn for the back scratcher/cat petting thingie
Update: Jan 08 2014 They are at my vet and we are waiting for updates.
Email wesearch@rogers.com if you are in the Toronto Area and can help. I will update the video description with updates.

My cat just made those sounds too, he's about 11 months and I was worried but then it stopped. I'm not sure if it's just hiccups or a hair ball, but I think I'm going to take him to the vet.

Willowtacoiscrafting If it is just once then it probably is a hairball. If your kitty can't breathe because of it then a vet check is a good option.

This is currently happening to my cat right now. He's only 3 years old. It stared yesterday evening, it just seemed like he had an episode of really long lasting hiccups. Then this morning when I woke up, I heard him doing it again but louder and more frequent. I then realized it was a cough. I took him to the vet today, and he has a fever of 104. They gave him a shot and I have to Inject a liquid medicine into his mouth once a day for five days. Did your cat get better? And how long did it last? Because this is scaring and hiring me so much to see him have to deal with it. I'm scared that he's going to stop breathing :/ I grew up with cats since I was a baby, and I have never experienced this before. If you know of anything I can do to help him please let me know! My cat is my bestfriend, I want to be able to help him as much as I can!

My vet did an x-ray to check for asthma as well as a nose swab and checked for Bortedella. Yes, cats can get it. Antibiotics should help if it is just a one time virus(Baytril 14 days). If it continues then yes, do more tests at vet. Have a humidifier in the room your cat sleeps in. If really bad where you think cat is choking or coughing to death (I know the fear and helplessness you feel) then take kitty into bathroom, close door and steam the room. Make sure kitty doesn't get wet. If you can coax kitty on counter to be higher as steam rises. This will help until antibiotics works. Good luck

My cat is having hiccups rn but without the noises lol she hiccups just like me she doesn’t open her mouth they are more internal lol like her body jumps not literally just when she has a hiccup I can feel it since she’s laying on me but I didn’t know they could get hiccups which is odd of me to think that 😂 but I mean I never had a cat so the more you know but I did try to scare her lowkey so I think they went away cause they have stopped

My senior cat (19.5 yo) sounds like a duck and does this but it’s more rapid and so scary! I fear she can’t breath and she stiffens up and struggles to gain control. She’s on antibiotics now but she was on them for something similar back in Feb and it’s Aug now. I fear it’s something more sinister :( she’s been in my family since 2004… I know she will die but I don’t want her to suffer. I hope your kitty is well 🥺

I hope the antibiotics work and you can keep your baby comfortable and pain free for as long as she needs you❤ Hermione passed recently at almost 22 and was purring up until the last few hours when she suddenly went downhill 🧡 I rescued her when she had frostbite and the vet estimated her age at 10 years so she lived a long time inside with her bff and had warm blankets and heating pads. Never enough time because their unconditional love is so pure💜

Sorry but that doesn't really sound like hiccups to me.... I mean, if *your* hiccups sound like that, consider a visit to the doctor 🤣 Jokes aside, glad to know little Hermione is fine :3 The other day my cat was making a sound rather similar to that in the video and I was unsure whether it was something serious or menial. Thankfully it ended up being just a humongous-olympic-tier-spawn-of-Hell-sized hairball (I'm not even exaggerating about the size). No more weird sounds after that. Anyway, thanks to your video now I can see the difference between my cat about to throw up a hairball and actually having a respiratory problem. Even though the sound is similar, the body language is very, very different.
