ASAP CAT DROOLING


Question Posted Saturday January 14 2012, 1:22 am

We just called most of our local vets, and hey said don't bother till tomorrow. But my cat is walking unstable, and he is drooling everywhere, and he acts as though he has to regurgitate. But nothing comes out just bubbles, i am worried crying. Stroke maybe? His pupils are also not the same in size.

To put it bluntly, your local vets sound like idiots. All the symptoms you listed are potential signs of poisoning. And if your cat did eat something toxic/poisonous, getting treatment as soon as possible can be the difference between life and death. If your cat is still sick and you are unsure what to do, call a 24 hour emergency vet and take your cat in RIGHT AWAY. If you are in or around a big city, you may be able to search for 24 hour vets online. Otherwise, you might have to go through the phone book. But don't wait. Do it ASAP. It may already be too late, but it still needs to be done right away.

Also, here are a few pages with info on symptoms of poisoning in cats:

I do hope your cat gets better. I just can't stand the fact that your local vets told you to wait. My local vet was willing to come in after hours when our dog vomited red. It turned out to just be red kibble rather than blood, but there are some symptoms that should always be treated as an emergency until the vet personally examines them and says otherwise.

How old is your cat? You left out the most important information.


My cat passed a year ago. If he/she is walking unstable, Mouth opened, Drooling, Breathing heavy...I hate to tell you these are symptoms of a stroke.

However, I could very well be wrong as I am not a vet. It could be possible she/he has heart failure, heart attack etc. The best thing you can do for your cat is to stay by him and call the vet first thing in the morning....


Best wishes :(
