Hi there,
I am new to the forum so I wanted just to ask a few things about my cat. My cat is 5-6 years old and Persian She has an amazing character , very playful and full of life. However in the last few days I am out of my mind with worry as she has stopped behaving like herself. It all started when we took her to the vet two days ago for a check up as she had some skin problem. The vet gave us antibiotics for 12 days and we left as normal with the prospect of coming back in 12 days after the therapy finished. However, the same night she started being a very different cat. First she wobbled a lot not being able to keep her balance straight. Then she was behaving like she could not hear or see and she was trembling. It was late so I could phone the vet so we waited until the morning and we took her back. Vet said he could not find anything wrong with her clinically so we had to observe her fr 24 hours and see how it went. For 2 whole days now, she has not eaten anything, drink anything used the toilet and she is sleeping or sitting in a position for hours with open eyes like a zombie! That cat is not my cat! Its like she does not recognized me or my husband and I go close to her ear ad shout her name without seeing me and she does not respond! Like she is deaf or soething or alf dead!! I don't know what to do really... its very upsetting to see your cat that way. Does anyone have the same experience or has any clue on what is going on? Thanks
