I've already lost three cats this year, and I'm scared I might be loosing a fourth.
I noticed that for the past two days, someone had been dribbling around the litterbox. All three cats were acting normal, so I thought I'd wait it out and see if someone started acting wierd. (With three cats and no money, it's not like I could haul them all in to get checked.) And I figured if it were anything, it was the Little One chasing Merlin out of the box in a hurry to play.
Well, I woke up this morning to find Hans squatting on my bathroom rug in a complete daze. He wouldn't move even his head when I went to pet him, and then I noticed a few bright yellow drop on the rug. Went to the phone, called the vet. He moved into the living room and did the same thing, so I helped him (it seems like he's having trouble walking) into the bathroom, added a clean litterbox, and shut the door.
His muscles on his rear end are spasming, and the urine has no odor. He's like a walking zombie. He won't even come out from the litterbox, he just stays in there, crouching down like he's trying to go. But he's not crying or wimpering like he's in pain.
I don't get it, he was perfectly fine last night, I even watched him use the litterbox normally.
Merlin and the Little Ones are taking turns, one sitting at the bathroom door and the other staying with me. I leave for the vet's office at 3:45 EST. I'm hoping it's nothing serious. I'm tapped out and my family is refusing to lend me any more money for my cats.
