It seems my cat swallows alot, I have never noticed this before, is this normal? This is the same cat that is running from me, not all the time but most of the time. I know everyone said take to a vet, but its hard to do that when ya cant get close to her. She has been a wonderful cat for over 10 years. When I do get near to pet her, she is ok, but as soon as I stop, she moves away. So, what does everyone say about the swallowing...maybe its just me noticing it heck I just dont know what to do.
