ive had 2 cats for the last 10+yrs, both came to me as strays, a female @ 1yr & a male about 4 months. Both were/are super sweet kitties & bonded strongly with each other. The female was momma kitty, the male was beloved son (both neutered soon after adoption) & i was relegated to maybe favored aunt status.
somehow the female got outside and and ate most of a poisoned rat.... the result was painfil & prolonged & nothing i or the vet did helped.
Now i have a 10+ yr old male who is anxious and confused and obviously missing his "mom"
what can i do? i miss her too & it's heartbreaking to see him run from front door to back & not know what to do.
Momma kitty died at home one night, & i know that he was aware of it.
Is 10 yrs old enough to for a kitty to have mental problems?
