.. I looked at her and her face was swollen
and she had brownish frothy mucous and very pale gums.


...and hypothermia

....are *classic* symptoms of acetaminophen (Tylenol) toxicity in cats.

Speak to your vet *NOW* about acetylcysteine- (140mg/kg/hr for 7 hours) it
reduces the toxicity of acetaminophen.

Have your vet check for methemoglobinemia.
