My 18 year old cat is unresponsive, cold, yowling and we think about to pass away.
The problems started when he stopped eating for a week and started to see small drops of diarrhoea inside on the floor. The vet said it could be either constipation or because it had 4 suspect teeth that should be removed.
The vet said he wanted to put the cat under to remove the teeth and perform an enema. When we took the cat home the next day he wasn't right; not moving out of his carry case and made a yowling noise once in a while. Now he is just on the verge of passing away.
From doing research I think he might of only needed a laxative and the vet should not have recommended surgery for teeth on a very old cat. Im also concerned because he gave us two tablets to give the cat which I think were only antibiotics and not pain medication. Maybe the pain our cat from teeth extraction made is body shut down?
Thanks for all your help
