My 1.5 yr old cat has a dry nose, isn’t eating or drinking as much, and sleeps more lately. Any ideas?
January 3rd, 2010
Note: I know a great deal about cats and am about to get my B.S. in animal science. I am aware that he may have a cold, but at the moment, I don’t have a job (just moved) and don’t have $100 to fork over to the vet to be told it’s just a cold. I’m looking for advice from people who have had a similar problem, vets, etc.
I moved on 7/17; my mom took my cats on 7/10. She feeds them too much food at a time, so by the time I got them, they were used to eating about half what was in the bowl instead of all of it. I’ve been trying since then to get them back on a regular schedule, but I just moved out to my place on 9/1, so I’ve only been able to monitor them 24/7 for 9 days. Since we’ve been at the new place, I noticed I’d never seen Evo drinking from the water bowl, just from the leaking faucet, & he only eats half of his food no matter the amt. I noticed his nose was dry yesterday & he’s sleeping more.
All cats are indoor only, up-to-date on shots, altered, & lived together 4 a yr
if its nose aint wet its because its not drinking and mybe its getting tired of da food and water and it dont get enough energy well thats wat i think take it to vet just in case!!
see if a friend, neighbor or family member will let you borrow some moeny. talk to your vet and maybe they will let you set up a payment plan.
when you get a job make a savings account for your cat, put $5 or so a month into it to be used for emergencies or if you run into a hard time finacially you will know your cat will always get the medical treatment that it needs.
