Oh god, I hate hearing and reading stuff like this. My prev moggy was 22 - and all of a sudden, she did the same thing. within days, she looked very very ill. her back end began swaying as though she had no control over it, and soon she was very lethargic, couldn't move.
her time had come and her system just gave in. She's possibly not passing any stools. Please, please , get her to the vet as early as possible tomorrow. It may be time to say goodbye, which is more painful than anything - but you have to think of what is best for her.
I dont want to hurt, upset, or alarm you, but I really am begging you: stay awake with her all night, and let her know mum is there for her, stoke and cry with her.
But please, get her to the vet first thing. Please please PM me, I will give you my tel number. I went through this only 2 years ago, I know exactly how you feel.
Thoughts and love. x
