There are zero reasons this question could be considered "stupid". But it's also a very specific medical one for this community, and any answers would be mostly speculation without expertise and an examination.
If your veterinarian isn't solving the issue, you need to get at least a second opinion. Maybe call different vet offices/clinics and ask about specialization? Good luck...
Problem is money right now. I mean it, were that not an issue I would have long gone that route
Definitely in the speculation department, but for humans, an allergic reaction to dust mite poop can trigger the asthma. So, you might be able to help your cat by just wiping/vacuuming the floors more often.
Maybe brush the cat more, so it doesn't feel the need to clean itself as often. Or at least swallow less fur and whatever is in that fur.
Im not so sure they are correlated. She doesnt groom less when i brush her, its quite possible it creates more grooming because the brush releases more hair and stimulates her wanting to do it more
andaybe the cat, especially if it only happens when it's cleaning itself.
