Cat Forum / General Topics / October 2003Advice on a sick cat
My cat has not been eating for 2 days and has been drinking a lot of water once today. The cat seems to be weak and his eyes are half open. Should I wait to see if the cat will improve or take the cat to the vet? Regards Brian <X-no-archive: yes> >My cat has not been eating for 2 days and has been drinking a lot of >water once today.

It could be pretty bad, you just don't know at this point. Maybe some cat-hating idiot has put out baked sponge, which would explain why he drinks but does not eat. This will kill your cat if not treated soon. Please go today. JM Take the cat to the vet immediately! Cats get very sick very fast if they dont' eat.  SignatureVictor M.

Robyn Brian; I don't know how old you cat is but if he/she is over 10 years old it could be the onset set of renal failure. Do as we all have sugguested and take kitty to the vet immediately if not sooner. Please post kitty's condition when you return. ~Marie~ > >My cat has not been eating for 2 days and has been drinking a lot of > >water once today.

Assume nothing at this point except that the cat needs to visit the vet today. Beyond the cat can't be diagnosed through cyberspace. -------------------------------------------- "It took us 15 years to McGyver this thing." -------------------------Carter on Stargate To send me e-mail exorcise NO Spam from my e-mail address. I took the cat to the vet who game me some pills to give to him, but the cat has not improved. Today a blood test proved that the cat is deteriorating due to the lack of red cells. They are going to do a count on red cells to see if the cat can be treated. My problem is in getting water and food into the cat who is refusing it. The cat is 8 years old.

Don't wait, take it to the vet today. -------------------------------------------- "It took us 15 years to McGyver this thing." -------------------------Carter on Stargate To send me e-mail exorcise NO Spam from my e-mail address. Don't even think twice, bring your cat down ASAP. There is something wrong and it needs to be addressed right away before things get worse.
