Under what condition should CPR be administered?

Explanation:
CPR is used when the animal can no longer circulate blood or breathe on its own. The correct condition is unconsciousness with no effective breathing, which signals cardiac or respiratory arrest and requires immediate CPR to maintain blood flow and oxygen delivery while help is sought. The other scenarios don’t indicate this emergency: coughing means the animal is still breathing and not in arrest; being asleep is normal rest; being hungry is unrelated to a need for CPR.
