You should definately get some blood work done. My cat has those same

it's hard to tell for sure because those symptoms can apply to other
things
too and you need to know so you can treat your cat properly.

Good luck, I hope it's something that can be cured.

Well, it's not good news. According to the vet, she's a very sick
cat. She has some sort of auto-immune problem and she's severly
anemic. Basically now we have no choice but to give her steroids
twice a day that will either make her better, or, if she has a kidney
or liver problem, make her worse, and kill her.

Well, they can't even test the blood. They tried a couple of times
(she loved being dragged back out to have blood drawn again, as you
can imagine) and they can't do anything with it because she's so
anemic, so they can't determine if she has any kidney or liver
problems. So she says the only thing we can do is to give her the
pills and see if she gets better or worse, and if she gets worse,
there's nothing that can be done for her. They first suspected
diabetes and ruled that out through a urine test.
