It would make you feel at ease once you get the answer from a professional.

lots of kisses from Pickles and Goodluck to you!
Ya she is still making the noise a little but but not too much after I gave her some bread. She just started doing this an hour ago after waking up from a nap. It is a weird noise though. At first I couldnt decide if it was a hiccup, cough, or hacking. BUt she doesnt sound weezy at all. My vet is 35 minutes away and they are always busy. Local vets charge and arm and a leg(so I'd prefer to only have to use them if its an emergency). I just dont want to go if they are goign to tell me she has a hair ball or somethign and she will have to hack it up herself. I have spent too much money going to the vet for things that ended up being nothing. While I definetly think its better to be safe than sorry, I have also learned to try to be a bit more practical. I think I worry too much. And if this is something I can solve I would prefer too. BUt is she still does this tommorrow I will definetly take her. I just hate it because I just cant ever decide. I think it may have gone away though
