Oh my. Poor cat. These signs are very concerning in a cat. They could mean a number of things could be going on including an infection, kidney disease, or liver disease just to name a few. I would highly recommend taking Rosita in to your local vet right away for diagnostic testing so that we can identify the underlying problem quickly and get her some treatment to help stabilize her. I do hope that your furry friend Rosita is going to be able to make a full and speedy recovery soon! Best of luck and take care.

    Rosita sounds extremely sick, and without seeing her in person, I can't say what is going on. I can say that eight days is a long time for her to have these symptoms, and this is a medical emergency. You cannot treat this at home, you have to take her into a vet now or this can kill her.
