My mother cat is sick, panting, and missing. Is she in danger?

Question

Not sure if my first question went through. Mommy cat is sick. Panting, ears back, eyes squinted, nose up. She staggered out the door an hour ago and she hasn't been back. Not normal for her. Kittens are well but they all have had sore eyes. One has been seen by our vet who dewormed him and gave antibiotic eye ointment. They all have fleas. Mom was treated 2 weeks ago. She's a ferrell cat but so sweet. Help. Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | unspayed | 8 lbs

Panting is always concerning and is usually a sign of respiratory distress in cats. She could be having respiratory problems, a heart issue, or have anemia from fleas. I'd recommend trying to find her outdoors if possible and taking her to a vet as soon as you can.
