I'm sorry to hear about your cat's condition. The symptoms you're describing, such as difficulty breathing, loss of appetite, weight loss, white gums, and bad breath, are concerning and could indicate a serious health issue. These symptoms might be related to anemia, heart problems, kidney disease, or other critical conditions.

Given the severity and combination of symptoms, I strongly recommend taking your cat to a veterinarian as soon as possible. Immediate professional evaluation is crucial to determine the underlying cause and begin appropriate treatment.

If you have any further questions please ask us. Thank you.
