My almost 11-year old cat does not look any good. Over the last three-four weeks she lost lots of weight (at first we thought her reduced appetite was due to the heat and didn't worry too much since she had been overweight).
Last few days she barely ate at all. I started to feed her from a syringe with water diluted canned food. She seems to enjoy it but vomits out almost everything I feed her. As I was feedig her, I noticed that her mouth is all black and there is a lump in the gum at one of her big teeth.
She also has eye and nose discharge. No diarrhea.
We are taking her to the vet tomorrow morning. What can this be? If it was a virus, how soon would another cat in the family show any symptoms?
Thank you.
