First of all, my cat is a female, less than 1 year old, and she hasn't been spayed yet. She is totally an indoor cat, in fact only confined to my room (since we have a dog that she doesn't like, heh) and she eats solid food.
About 4-5 days ago she threw up 3 times. They were small and it just seemed like it was her food. Thought it may have been partially caused by a hairball. Since then she was more mellow and I didn't see her eat much. It was the first time I ever saw her throw-up too, so I just thought maybe it freaked her out.
Gradually she started acting more normal, but I don't see her eat and drink as much as she normally does. Then just yesterday I noticed that her poop had blood in it. And there was a thick dark blood coming from her butt (not continually just after pooping). She's done that twice and only pooped twice in the last day or so. She seems to be eating a little more regularly since the poops, but she still has me worried.
I called some vets in the area, about 3 so far, but they weren't very helpful. Most practically forced me to go to an appointment and pay upfront, but I really don't have alot of money right now, and I still need to continue calling around to find someone who can work around my budget.
Maybe someone has experienced something similar that can help me out. Thanks!
