Chicken poppy
Fashionably late 🎤🦆
Hi all, i have been getting very concerned with my cats health and need advice.
She is my baby and comforter through my highs and lows and i don’t know what i would do without her. I would hate to bring her to the vet for no reason because she just went to get her annual rabies shot and a wellness check up, she was fine then and this check up was a little over a month ago. (April 17th)
More information and why i’m concerned.
She is a spayed female Orange tabby who is around the age of 5. She is a warrior and words can’t describe how much i love her, but I’m feeling so guilty right now. I admit i have not been giving her the attention she deserves. I have been very busy lately with chickens and some life problems that makes me think she might be depressed. Of course, i am trying to spend as much time as possible with her now, i feel absolutely horrible. I would rather it be depression or blues then a disease or problem, though.
Her symptoms: Sleeping a LOT. Same spot, too. Under the table on a turtle blanket of hers. Kiwi has always been rambunctious, bouncing off walls and hyper. She would sleep on family members and sometimes on occasion, me, and there have been a few times she has seemed sad but this time really just concerns me. She doesn’t come upstairs that much anymore like she used to.
She seems to be eating less and today we saw a poop of hers on the basement stairs, and a week or so ago some hairball or something on the floor maybe poop, this concerns me because she has literally been liter box trained since she was a few weeks old (when we got her.)
She seems to drink less though i’m unsure, and just seems off, more then usual.
Her grooming is good i think, all seems well from the outside i think aswell, she comes outside but doesn’t get hyper like before and this has been lasting a few weeks.
Any advice? What should i do? I will obviously take her to the vet if i need to but i’m looking for some advice or if maybe this is just some depression. She doesn’t really play now and it breaks my heart, but she is loooving the combing with a brush i bought her, she purrs a lot for it too. I need some reassurance here, nothing to bad could have happened within this amount of time, right?
