My cat is 14-yrs. old. At times she'll howl for no reason. Her bowel movements are fine, she eats, and can still climb stairs. This evening she was howling again and I found her under a bed drooling and what looks like heavy panting. Her gums and tounge are still pink. She has lost a fair amount of weight and her backbone is more defined. She has been an indoor cat for all her life. She has been spayed. What do I do?

Hi!
I'm sorry to hear about your cat but to put it simply, take her to the vet right away. Please keep us posted on how she's doing!

Unfortunately, she didnt make it through the night. We buried her in a nice spot on the family farm. I'm glad shes in no more pain. Thanks
