Cat, Bleeding nose

My cat is dripping blood from her nose, the droplets are very small and not all the time. I was wondering what could cause this. She is still eating and drinking just fine.

I think we need some more information. How long has this been going on? Any changes in her behavior? Are there things she does that appear to make the bleeding worse? How old is she? Do you allow her to roam outside unattended? How is her balance and coordination?

Shae has never had very good balance or coordination so that is unchanged. She is allowed outside unattended. She is 10 years old and spayed. The bleeding isn't any worse or very bad just very fine droplets every where she sits or lays for very long. Slight flea problem that is being taken care of. She seems to sleep more than she use to, I just assumed it was caused from old age. This has been going on for about a week I think.

I forgot to say that her normally sleek fur is looking kind of scruffy, and she keeps sqinting her eyes like the light might be hurting her. Like when we have a head ache? She is also talking alot, she follows me around the house meowing at me. She keeps rubbing her ears.

This could be serious. A trip to the vet is very definitely in order.

What great news!

So what was wrong? Do you mind filling us in, in case we get a similar question in future?

The Vet thought that she may have played with a mouse that had walked through poison. She never eats mice so that is what saved her, from a sever poisoning. So now she seems to be better. Her coat is starting to shine again and she is starting to get back to her normal goofy self.

Good news my cat is fine now and back to her talking, and falling self. She is the only cat I have had that doesn't land on her feet. She will be sleeping on the TV or whatever and just roll off and land on her side. Crazy cat she just fell again off the dresser. Looked at me like it was my fault.
