1 year old cat sick

I'm currently waiting for my vets to open this morning for advice, my 1 year old cat is very lethargic and sleepy and just not her usual self, she is usually a lunatic, she's not bothered about food or water, she's had some to eat and drink but not her usual amount, anyone else had experience with this?

Yes, luckily it was usually an infection from another fight wound.

The abscess with green pus was a Sunday infection iirc.

Has she been on Applaus, Ava or Sainsbury's hypoallergenic dry food? If yes, mention it to the vet because there are lots of cases of pancytopea (sp?) connected with those foods right now.

It could well be just the heat. Mine are both flaked out. But best to get checked.

Some cat foods are being recalled. I know Felix as good as it looks is one. Making lots of cats ill

YouveCatToBeKittenMe · 18/07/2021 11:48

Felix is not being recalled

@YouveCatToBeKittenMe I think only this one Felix product , it was mentioned on another thread. Don't think it's being recalled but it is making cats ill

FFS will people stop talking absolute shit about Felix causing illness in cats.

The OP needs to be aware of facts - not the pointless ramblings of people who believe any bollocks they read on the internet.

OP - please read this link carefully and if you cat has been eating any of the foods listed in the recall notice make sure your vet is aware urgently.

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats I said I saw it on a thread not that it was gospel. You're right, Felix is not on the list. I should have checked the facts before I repeated it

She's not on any of that food thank god, I took her in they think it's viral, she had a temp and they gave her an injection for this and one to bring her appetite back, got to keep an eye on her for the next 24/48 hours, they hope her body will fight it off but if not I'm to go back! thanks everyone!
