Hi everyone!

My munchkin Luna (female) is acting so different suddenly. She doesn't come when we call her name, and she shys away from us . She has been hiding under the bed which is nothing like her! and eating partially nothing. ( Shes a monster when she eats, and eats anything on her path.)

I am planning to take her to the Vet tomorrow, but i was wondering what exactly should i get?

Blood work? X-rays? Only comprehension? I am so worried about her

thank you

Any change in behavior like that is cause to see the vet.  I'd ask for an exam and some blood work.  If the blood work doesn't show anything, I'd ask for an x-ray to check for masses or blockages.

You are doing the right thing to take her to the vet tomorrow.... I wen through the same thing recently, and sure enough, there was something wrong - nothing terribly wrong, but gave me the tools to solve the situation (she had a stress induced bladder inflammation, blood in her urine, which showed only on the urinalysis).

I would do a superchem - this is the most comprehensive blood test you can get, and a urinalysis.

Thank you so so much for the good vibes! I think all the good vibes worked. Luna got a cat bite on her butt, near her tail ( still curious how that happened). My great vet, cleaned out the wound, shaved it and put some ointment. They injected her with some medicine, and now shes moody but healthy!

thank you again!!!

Cats bit on the butt are cats running away from the cat they had a fight with.  I used to have a cat Errol who was always bitten on his head or front legs...  And sadly I think he picked up FIV through fighting, and gave a false negative.  He was pts at 7.

Omg, i am sorry to hear that. So, do you think that the injections of FIV wont help to fight that? Now i am worried. She is an outdoor cat, not for my liking, but she is. This is the first time this has happened, and i am worried that she can die!

I know that is my fear that one of my babies will catch it (fiv)
Busters a feral cat I adopted and he isn't much of a fighter
But he constantly gets picked on by this big mean black cat I call
Panther cause he stalks him and chases him outta my yard I always
got to shoo him outta the yard when busters leaving to go the bathroom
