My Wife and I just returned home from a trip and noticed that our 2yr old cat was walking very funny as if his front legs or shoulder was bothering him, he has been spending all his time under the couch (very abnormal for him) and is sleeping all the time unless we bring him out. He doesn't go look for food, but will eat if we put it front of him along with water.
while we were away he got under my car in the garage and got oil on his coat from my old oil leaking SUV. I do not know how long the oil was on his back coat, but I am worried that this is causing problems. I washed off the oil on his coat.
He normally is an outside cat and only spends time inside to eat and sleep during the day, now he doesn't want to be outside at all. He will eat and then go to his normal sleeping areas, but after about 10 mins, moves back to under the couch.
I am at a loss and need some advice before we rush to the vet.
