i didn't know which catagory this would fit in.. but i have this major problem about worrying about my cat. here is the story:

i had another cat some years back and she was injured by a speeding car one night while i was out. She was turned in the emergency room in critical condition with life-threatening conditions such as blindness, and jaw deformation.

my family and i decided to put her to sleep, and later on (two years later) i got a new cat. i made her an indoor cat so nothing would really happen to her. however, i always get bad visions of my cat dying in her sleep, like Sudden kitten death syndrome (Like SIDS) and there have been times I woke up seeing my cat not move at all, and I got terrified, and tried waking her up and she did. I always freak out when she is laying next to me or somewhere else. I always get worried she'll die and I get so scared so much that I feel like it's sending me into major paranoia.

I love my cat so much and it would break my heart if something ever happened to her, which is probably why I get like that. But I am still a little confused why I keep feeling that way, and I would like to know. I would also like advice on how to treat this problem so I would feel a bit more ease.

thanks in advance (link)
well after long internet research there has been no cases of (SIDS)in cats, but if your cat is under 10 chances are that it wont be dying soon i understand that you love your cat i have a cat and i constantly freak out when her ribs stop going up and down (while breathing) for a second but if she doesnt go out and 90% of cat death are caused whilst outside so youve already given her a a massive advantage
but on the whole you can't really do anything animals die but when they do its the right time but for the moment just relax and enjoy the time with her


hope i helped
need any more email sammygamy@hotmail.com

what are you talking about?? age has nothing to do with it, and it's not SIDS, it's SKDS. Look it up. But thanks for the effort.
