How to Use the AeroKat® Chamber
Cat asthma is treated like asthma in humans – with corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and often bronchodilators to open the airways up during an asthma attack. Since cats can't use a puffer or metered dose inhaler the same way humans do, they need a chamber, also called a spacer, with a mask. There are many ways to help your cat get used to using their inhaler and AeroKat® Chamber, including playing, hugs and treats.
The AeroKat® Chamber also allows you to "puff" the inhaler medication into the chamber away from your cat to avoid making a sound your cat may not understand or like. Once you've followed our tips and tricks to get your cat used to the inhaler, don't be surprised if your cat comes running when its time to give them their medication. With a little practice and love, this becomes an easy part of helping your cat lead a healthy and happy life.
