It depends on what the cause is. The cat may have gotten into something toxic, infectious, etc. Because the cause is unknown, it is hard to say what the prognosis is. If you are able to, I would try and catch the cat and take it in to be seen by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
