My cat is wobbling, vomiting, not eating, hiding, and has red gums.

Question

Ever since Sunday night I saw my cat wobbling out of her bed cube, she walks funny and won’t eat or drink. Later on I find her hiding as if she’s preparing to die. I found liquid vomit and just a bit ago she came inside the house, constantly stuck in the same position. Her gums above her canines are so red. She won’t open her mouth. I’m about to syringe feed her. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 10 lbs

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Bella! How old is Bella? I am worried about her and highly recommend having her seen as soon as your Vet opens. Cats shouldn't go more than 2-3 days with out eating and the wobbliness and lethargy could be from weakness. Possible causes are: fever, Kidney or liver failure, diabetes, cancer, FIP, feline leukemia or FIV, toxin ingestion, ate something that is stuck causing a blockage. I wouldn't allow her outside until we find out what is going on and she is better. I would call your vet today for an appointment. I wish Bella the best!
