Last update for you all.. The problems have returned ten-fold, she is now stuck in attack mode for the past two days solid, shes frothing at the mouth, her eyes are glossed over, and shes wheezing hard. Shes in a padded cage, but every time she gets enough energy up, she goes rampant again. She...

They said it was an exploratory surgery.  the incision was so small, i cant even find it.

^^ im not sure if it even is a disorder. Its just a chemical imbalance caused by rogue chemicals that somehow came out of dormancy. Im not sure what the medical lingo is for that, but they didnt have a name for the disorder, or at least they didnt tell me one.. I can ask though.

^^ so far that seems to be the case, which is a relief to me.

For those of you who care to know. We (the vet and I) have found out that the three other kittens from the lot were put down for the exact same behavior. We found a specialist who took her in for about a week and ran extensive tests. Turns out there was indeed a major malfunction somewhere. I...

She is at the vets office now, they are monitoring their behavior and have contacted a specialist. Euthanasia is not my first choice, and i would like more than anything to have my cute cuddly kitten back. But  i have to face facts of what i can and cant do. Taking care of a cat with the issues...

Again, this is not my frirst cat. Ive had two myself (both adopted at a fairly young age), and grew up with plenty more in the family. My first cat was asthmatic, and the second was hit by a car around the age of five, requiring her left rear leg be amputated. I gladly paid the bills because i...

^^ i do care about the cat, ive lived with her for a year, ive spent at least an hour each evening playing with her, not to mention the time she spends on my lap while im working on the computer, or in front of the television. Im not so inhuman as to say that i dont give a hoot, its tearing me...

I called my doctor and he sent me a prescription of some antibiotics, i also cleaned the cuts and put neosporin on them, so far none of them have even so much as swollen up. I am not sure what triggered the problem, but its apparent that there is something seriously wrong with her, however as...

She did it again last night when i let her out of the cage, but i was quick enough to catch her and put her right back in her cage. This time, she attacked a pillow on whats left of my sofa. I will be discussing euthanization with the doctor on monday. I have no intention of owning an unstable...

Vet gave her a hefty dose of tranqulizer, and told me to let her sleep, and call them if she acts up again. whats another $65.

Quick update: I let her out a few minutes ago as she has had about  4 hours to calm downn, and after about 30 seconds of sniffing around, she jumped right back into it. Started hissing at the wall (seriously), then leapt at it, and started attacking it..  I scruffed her, and put her back in the...

Its possible she was messed up in the bag, but shes played around with them before, even getting caught up in them, but never reacted like this.  As for windows, i dont have many in the place, two of the three had blinds, and the other was in a different room from where she started her tirade...

This morning at about 3am, i was awoken to a cat screaming in full attack mode, attacking a cloth grocery bag in my living room. When i went to take the bag, she jumped on it, and wouldnt let me near it.  I finally got it away from her, and she started attacking me too! After  20 minutes of her...

thanks for the above info guys, the local vet gave her a anti-inflamitory shot, as well as some sort of specialized antibiotic, and she is doing better now, she still has the occasional spell, but its not as bad as it was.

So my cat is about ~10 months old now, shes prettymuch fully grown, but in the last few weeks she has developed some issues. It came on rather suddenly when it happened, it wasn't like a build up, but now she will occasionally go into a spell of breathing that is both loud, and congested...
