Dear friend,

It is likely that your cat is eating or has been bitten by somthing toxic. If you have any plants he can be chewing or any other subbtances that could effect him - you need to get rid of them. Inspect his body and mouth for any strin, sores, etc thatcould have affected him. Look in the bag of cat food and see if there is any mold present. Do not let him go outdoors, give him any people food or human OTC's.

Watch him very carefully and if you see any signs of a relapse - you willneed immediate veterinary attention.

Please let me know how he is today and if you have any further questions. I will be happy to help.

Very sincerely,

Terri
