I had this happen and couldn't understand why. Finally took my cat to the vet. My mother used to sew alot. When the vet looked into the cats throat she had a needle stuck in her throat. I would suggest taking her to the vet and make sure nothing has gotten stuck in her throat. Maybe a bit of food or? It sounds like its a good possibility. If the breathe is that bad it sounds like infection. Possibly even a sinus infection. They get those as well. Better safe then sorry with our pets. Good luck.

Peridontal disease in cats

Diana,
Even though you think her teeth are fine, some of the teeth in the back could still be in bad shape. Bad breath is a sign of periodontal disease, which could result in other problems like kidney and heart disease if left unchecked. The best thing to do is to bring your cat into your veterinarian for an oral exam. The fact that the smell is so horrible does make you think there may be a hard to visualize infection somewhere back there.
