My poor kitty is sick!

Friday while I was at work, I got a call from my girlfriend telling me that my kitty was acting really weird. She was drooling constantly, breathing weird, and could barely walk.  I told her to take her in to the vet and get her checked out, so she did.

They took a bunch of tests on Friday and we are STILL waiting for the results. Over the weekend she seemed fine again, so I stopped worrying so much. But now today it started up again and I am really worried again! I don't want my kitty to die or anything! She isn't even a year old!

its sounds like something she is eating that is making her sick but not poisonous enough to to kill her, hope you get it all straightened out

I have been trying to think of something she could be getting into and I thought maybe the bamboo she has been nibbling on but it turns out its fine for cats...

Hope the vet gets to the bottom of things. Keep us posted.

OH NO!!
She is only a inside cat too right??
Do you put any kind of mice or rat killer around??Do you live in a place where others do and she caught a poisoned mouse?? Do you keep your anti freeze or any other chemicals in cats reach??
I sure hope the vet can figure it out!! I hope they run a series of poison tests.....
MrsRoadRunner . Jan 26, 2010, 12:26pm UTC
Did she eat a house plant?? Or chewed on the leaf?
Justin Reid Jan 26, 2010, 8:05pm UTC
I am very careful of all of those things, but it turns out it is actually feline leukemia...
MrsRoadRunner . Jan 27, 2010, 7:52am UTC
