For those of you who have cats, have you ever come across anything like this before. She is 10 yrs old and strictly indoors cat. We haven't used any poisons lately. She is having "fits". Excessive drooling, breathing out of her mouth and spastic movements. Then she takes off running like she doesn't know what to do or where to go. She vomited a couple a days ago, which has been the only time since this has started. Last night for the first time she lost bowel movements and peed on me & the floor. The vet took blood and her white blood cells were low everything else looked normal including T4. The vet is thinking it is possible blockage maybe a hairball or string/dental floss.
This started Tuesday night. She had the next attack Thursday. Then Saturday... now the fits are happening more closely 3x a day.
This is day 3 on Laxatone. We wanted to make sure that it isn't a hairball that can't move through her system.
She is eating and drinking water... seems more hungry than usual. Litter box activities are normal. She hasn't lost any weight and her hair is still full and shinny just a little dandruff. She's very talkative more than usual and clingy. Wanting me to pet her all the time. Usually she stays upstairs alone. I don't mine her being so friendly and loving. I'm loving it. However, she keep waking us up at night. Constantly. I haven't sleep all week because she comes in at all hours of the night headbutting me and pacing across our heads.
Our next step is x-rays. We going to see how the laxatone does first and just watch her today.
Of course she spent today at the Vet's office so they could observe her and she didn't have any "fits". She had one this morning and I think one while we were at dinner. I went upstairs to check on her and the fur on her butt and thighs were wet. I found where she had an accident near her litter box.
