Hi,
My cat is acting weird. She keeps crying all the time and appears to be in discomfort. She has trouble finding a shape that's comfortable to sleep in. And is just sitting their half the time with her head held straight up. her cries are weird almost like mating cries (she is spayed and hasn't been in heat for the two years I've know her). Also She hasn't eaten anything since yesterday whe she began acting this way. I tried her with some milk but she was holding her head funny trying to drink. I think some local yobs may have kicked her, possible hurting her Jaw.
She is asleep now which is good but she's hidden in the darkest corner possible. Earlier she tried to stretch and yelped and her jaw has a lot of gungey siliva coming out that I've wiped away.
I'm pretty sure she is not too damaged i.e. a fractured jaw or broken bones. I can't afford to take her the vet and I'm not sure what to do.
Shall I just let her be for a day or two and only worry if i can't get her to eat. I wonder if she has been poisoned...but she has not threw up at all.
