My supervisor took home a cat that came in the other day and she died last night. When she came in she was so weak she could barely eat and was so boney at first we thought she was deformed (long haired, so we could see just how skinny she was untill picking her up) Her ears were also very frostbitten, so they were hard and may have lost them if she did live. So my question is do you think she just died from starvation, or do you think she had some thing wrong to cause her to be that skinny? She has other cats and is concerned about feline aids, or some thing like that. That cat was having seziures before it died and a few dieses cause seziures and her eyes were like pin drops then she had a seziure again and her eyes were all diatated and she died.
I think the sezuires were more like convoutions (from what she told me, I wasn't there) and it was her body dying or sezuires from dying, but we aren't sure.
The shelter won't pay for a necropsy, im sure, but she did have feces that we think should still be tested, but other then that we arn't sure if she has to worry about her cats. (our manager is gone for two weeks)
Any advice or thoughts?
