My cat's voice is gone after meowing constantly. What should I do?

Question

I have a 6 year old Tabby that my sitter said meowed almost constantly, and wandered from one room to the other looking for me while I was out of town for a week. When I got back, his voice was totally gone. After two days, he still sounds hoarse. Is there something I can give him that will help, or do I need to try and find a vet to take him to? He does not travel well in a vehicle. Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Mediumhair | Male | neutered | 5 years and 7 months old | 15 lbs

Hello, sorry to hear about Thomas. As long as he is otherwise acting like his normal self now that you are back, (eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, and having normal activity) then I would monitor at home to see if his voice returns. However, if you think Thomas is showing additional signs of illness, especially if he is not eating or if he is having a hard time chewing/ingesting his food the I would have him evaluated immediately. Ensure he has adequate food, water and that he is using the bathroom regurlarly. Best of luck and hope this helps.
