🌈 Let the sun shine on your face,
And dont let your life go to waste,
Now is the time,
Got to make up your mind,
Let it shine on you! 🌈



@vessel: is she a strictly indoor kitty? how is her behavior otherwise? any chance of having come into contact with any poison or poisonous plants?

@Xanthan: she's indoor only, i don't think she's been exposed to anything - the only thing i could think of is that she could have gotten into something or swallowed something. she's been able to drink water today at least. she's been a little extra anxious and skittish too

@vessel: keep an eye on her. make sure she is drinking water. if she becomes a bit aloof.....for instance my cat would just sit and stare at the wall, get to the vet immediately

especially since she isn't eating or drinking. that can be a sign of kidney failure. not to scare you or anything but i wish i had known in advanced and maybe i would still have my Sasha kitty with me :'(

@vessel: my kitty, i swear she was poisoned tbh. She had to have been. but she stopped eating then stopped drinking. then would stare at the wall. finally she would just go down the stairs to the front door and stare at the wall there. not even the door. i couldn't help administer food or water. she was just in so much pain but you'd never have known because she was still loving, just not as responsive.

aw hopefully your kitty is ok :(

sometimes they just get a little sick and are ok the next day

usually it's an infection that can be treated with antibiotics.

@vessel: that is so awesome! Cherish friends like that. So many people these days have a hard time seeing past their own noses. Seems like you have some winners and keepers. Keep me updated please.

Oh dear. I'm so sorry to hear about your kitty.

I know this thread is over a month old, but how did she make out? If you don't mind me asking
