My cat Cleo for the past 2 days, hasn't all been herself. Yesterday she stayed in her kitty condo, only coming out to use the bathroom, eat, and drink and then to return back to where she was. When she walks she is scrunched up in the back, and she growls when I touch her stomach. Her stomach does look a little swolen like she bloat. Can anyone tell me what is wrong with her and what I can do to make her feel better?

It sounds like your cat needs to see the vet right away. Good Luck!

Well I did suggest that to my mom, but we don't have the money to take her right now.

My mom's friend suggested that she might have a bladder infection

If your cat does have a urinary infection, that's a bad thing and she needs to go to the vet immediately. Is she showing other signs of being in pain or in distress? Does to go to the bathroom over and over again? Is she passing normal stool and urine?
I would definitely give her the prod test. Examine her back end, press on her belly, see where she is feeling pain or discomfort then call your vet and let them know what you're experiencing.
If kitty isn't pooping, or starts vomiting, she may have ingested something that is caught up in her intestines.
Good luck!

Thanks for the ideas, she seems to be doing a lot better today, She is acting as she normally does.
