Poorly cat..please help
I have a lovely 7 yr old cat named yogi who looks exactly like felix, but over the past few days everytime i come home and let him in he just lies on the floor and his back legs go, this happens for about 15mins then he is okay. But he seems to just want to lie around and sleep a lot more. Its awful as he does not know whats happening. I have felt his back legs, and it seems a bit sore at the top near his bottom. Due to work i have not been able to get the vet yet...can anyone help?

Regardless of your work schedule, get the cat to a vet. There is no way any
of us can diagnose the cat from here nor help it which is what it needs. Get out of work how you can ... lie, cheat, steal, call in sick. Whatever you have to do. If you were in the same situation as the cat, would you ignore going to the doctor? -- ..oO rach Oo. "karenpar" wrote in message ...

Work schedules are no excuse. Any vet will let you bring your cat in and leave it during the day. Mine is open at 7am just for this reason. Paul |

Sometimes I've told the people at work that I had to leave an hour early to get to a doctor's appointment -- I just didn't tell them what type of doctor (DVM) the appointment was with. |

They go to a 24 hour emergency vet. Paul |

One place I worked at, a well known computer company, insisted that any medical appointments be deducted from vacation time. |
