Could my cat have died from carbondioxide inhalation because he was closed up in a room without air conditioni
Maybe that sounds silly but just hear me out. So I am an exchange student
living in Spain. A couple of nights ago l went to sleep and my cat was
breathing a little rapidly. l do not know why l did not think anything of
it, but l went to sleep. When l left in the morning he was all right, but
when l got home l found him dead. My host father says that it is because
of the carbon dioxide, and that l could have died in my sleep. They said
it builds up and because l never opened the windows and always had the window coverings closed that it built up and that l could have died along with my cat. Am l stupid to be skeptical of this or stupid to be hesitant to be skeptical? Note that the room is completely closed off. Maybe I am dumb but l had no idea something like that could happen. l researched ont he internet about breathing problems within cats and l found a lot, like lung infections (which are apparently prevalent in young animals), lung diseases, and a lot of other stuff. Also, because my room was closed off, a lot of humidity built up, like my windows would all be fogged up and everything, and as a result, some kind of fungus built up on the walls and around the window. It is all over our house but only a little bit, there was A LOT on my wall. l had no idea what it was, l tried to clean it but l couldn't, my host father cleaned it today with something with bleach or something. But could this have given him a lung infection? Or is it my fault for locking him in my room with not enough air? the walls and open the windows in spain. in america we never do that... l really wish l had known better, my little cat wouldnt have died...
Yes, it is very likely that ur cat died because of lack of
healthy air in the room. Where I live you must also open the windows at
least a bit in the winter or you will get mold growing all over ur walls,
causing asthma & other lung problems [in people, never studied about cats
in school].
It is a good thing that ur host father cleaned the wall with bleach to kill the mold & fungi living in ur room -- yuck! -- & now you know to keep ur window cracked all the time to get outside air in.
