ok my cat is not eating or drinking much. we think she is deprest becouse she was in the basement while some of my cuisins came down it is wed. today and will it be to late to take her on fri.?becouse just know i gave her some treats and she could not stop sticking her tounge out.......it was like she had peanut butter on the top of her mouth.PLEASE help fast!!!!!!!
This is not depression. She might have eaten something nasty in the basement. Cats chase crawling things, so maybe she ate a spider that bit her or some nasty bug.
Can you take her to a vet? Many vets work with animals shelters, so if money is a problem, check with the vets in the area to find out if they will let you pay on a sliding scale or because of a medical coupon you can get at the shelter.
Hmmm... I would try to feed him something and get her to drink as well.
Ideas:
1) check her mouth and airway to see if its blocked.
2) check her ears for signs of ear infections because damp basements can cause breeding grounds for airborn bacteria
3) look for any teeth decay or injury
4) take her to the vet if she continues this behavior
well shes at the vet they suck an iv to go not in the vain but under the skin the think it is her liver but they don't know for sure please come back and check up on this story!
well she is alive and well we think that she was putting on a big pout and ened up triing to commit "Kitty suicide" she was super dehyderated and know shes taking pills to help her eat more thanx for every thing you guys help save my cats life thanx!
This could have ended in tragedy. Cats can't go long without eating or drinking before going into liver failure. I'm glad you got her to the vet in time.
