Everyone please, our cat was slower for few days, we thought she is just moody. Then she got lost for two days and came back this morning very weak. Still had food in the morning, but not extremly week, look in the eyes as she is not here and breathing fast.
We live remore are, thus Vet is not an option, though trying to get one here tomorrow.
I gave her Nutri Cal about small spoon and have B and C on site in ampules. Any recomndations for next 24H

Thank you

Good going on the nutri-cal, that will help at least. Just making sure I understand - are you saying she is eating a little, or just not eating at all? Not sure about the breathing fast part, so hopefully you are able to get the vet in tomorrow. 

What have you been trying to feed her? And does she have any existing medical issues? The fact you had nutri-cal on hand is what makes me wonder.

Keep her in a safe, calm, quiet place. Keep her warm with lots of fluffy blankets or perhaps a heated pad if you have one. Offer her food and water every half hour or so. If she won't eat cat food, try offering baby food (sans onion or garlic), tuna from a can, chicken broth, whatever you can get into her. If she can't get to the litter box, pick her up and bring her there. You'll have to do some old-school supportive care as best you can.
