How Can My Cat Get Oxygen Treatment? 

How Can My Cat Get Oxygen Treatment?

We have had this question happen.  There are times when we would like to transport a cat from our facility to an emergency/ICU clinic.

In the past, we would do the best we could do to stabilize your cat, and send you out as quickly as possible.  We would have liked to have been able to send oxygen with our patients, but it was not available. Fortunately now with new technology, we can send you with an oxygen concentrator to get you cat to the ER with oxygen.  We feel with this new technology, we will be able to increase the chances for survival of your cat.  Hopefully this will give them more birthdays.

The new concentrator has a battery as well as a method to plug into your cigarette lighter (or now known as  the phone charger outlet). So your cat can be comfortable and on oxygen while you are driving to the ER.

Ellen has been using the technology to help provide Oxygen therapy for the kittens in need. With this technology, she has been able to save many kittens that would have been hopeless in the past.   To learn more about the Chris Griffey Memorial Feline Foundation (CGMFF) click here.

re about oxygen concentrators, click here. The concentrators are an interesting technology.  They are much smaller and easier to carry.  They also do not run out of oxygen.

The clinic will rent the concentrator and oxygen cage.  In addition to the rental, there is a deposit if the cage and concentrator are not returned or damaged. They are very light and easy to transport.  We do hope they will be able to provide our patients with better care and more birthdays.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
