I'm very concerned about my cat and I don't know if I have the money to take him to the vet. My cat has been in my family for a long time and he is aging. It hard for my cat to walk. My cat has gotten very skinny. Even though when I put food in front of him he eats. Sometimes my cat will crouch up and arch its back into the air with its tail up in the air and legs out to the side. Making me think that it has to go to the bathroom. Sometimes my cat will shake when it sleeps. I don't know if that has do to do with dreaming or seizures. I'm a very worried owner that needs some help. It will be greatly appreciated!

I feel sorry for your cat. I may not have a lot of experience with animals but I recommend either going to a vet or if you can't afford it find someone who knows a lot about cats that might be able to figure out the problem.

I felt his back legs and front legs. His back legs seem to be hotter than his front.
He is an indoor/outdoor cat. And earlier in the week he was outdoors for a couple of days. I brought him in a yesterday and found that he was walking weird. I checked to see if I could see and injuires.
Me and my mom are going to split up the cats in different rooms and monitor moe in a different litter box.
I also found that moes rectum is pushed outwards.

Please call around town until you find a vet who will accept a payment plan. Many of them will. Poor Moe needs to see a doctor... he may have an easily treatable infection from an injury, but he needs to get some medical attention. Don't make him suffer. Please keep us posted...
