Heimliching a cat....

As you all know I have a cat with asthma. So, there is some coughing going on now and again. nothing to really stress over. Though, a few nights ago, the coughing started. I looked to check, only to discover Fog standing in the door way with his tongue out coughing. I got scared. Fog coughed and coughed. His poor tongue out, I have never seen anything like it. I immediately opened his mouth his tongue went back in. Then I placed my hands on his sides when he exhaled I heimliched him. That seemed to be the trick. He had one little cough then all was good.
