Yes, I've experienced this and want to advise you not to worry too much.
You'll
probably never find out what caused it. Fevers of unknown origin (FUO) are
not
uncommon in kittens. Like yours, our kitten of 5 months age was her usual
self
one morning, and by afternoon was sitting hunched up with her chin on the
floor
as though she didn't even have the strength to pick her head up. I
recognized
the signs of fever and we rushed her to the emergency vet (this stuff
always
happens on a Sunday). She had a temp of 105. However, after an injection
of
antibiotics and some fluids, she perked up and within a few hours was
playing
again. The vet could find no apparent cause of her fever. She said it
could
have been a bite wound from playing with our other cat, but we never found
any
wound, and it was unlikely anyway because they never played that hard.
oh thank you its good to hear someone else's pet has experienced something
similar (not that I wish it on any pet) he has been fine ever since
