My cat is 7 years old. She is suddenly running and twitching her tail since 2 days. Now it has increased. Her body temperature is 103.6. She is getting scared running and hiding. Moving her lips like she is catching flies. Twitching her tail. She peed on me. I am very scared. Please tell me what is happening. I will take her to the vet in the morning.
Now she is sleeping on my bed. I covered her with a blanket . She is getting very scared. Now peed on the bed too.

Is there any way you can get her in now? She may be poisoned. She needs to be seen ASAP. She may also have a urinary tract infection. some kind of infection could cause those symptoms too. With her peeing it doesn't sound liek something you can take care of at home.....please tell us how it goes!

My cat is totally indoor. She is eating and drinking normally. No vomiting or diarrhea. It could be only an infection, right?
Can poisoned cats eat and drink?

No vet will be available at this time. I have to take her in the morning. It's 3:20 am now.

It is very unlikely a poisoned cat would eat and drink and not be vomiting. Since she is indoor, look around for anything, including plants she could have chewed on. If nor, it most likely will be an infection. Could be a UTI since she is peeling. It looks more and more like that, especially since she has a fever. The fact she is eating and drinking and no vomiting is really good, Really sick cats hide and don’t eat. I will keep her in my prayers, try to sleep but get her to a vet.

The vet checked her and said she might be in stress. I suspect it is hyperthesia. She is acting normal now. My other cat is having a problem. Please help.

On the face of it, your description does sound like hyperesthesia and a rather extreme case. However, these episodes do end, so if it continues indefinitely or repeats very often it might be something else. There is not usually any other physical symptoms with hyperesthesia such as vomiting, diarrhea, or even peeing so if you are seeing any other signs of physical distress it might not be just hyperesthesia.

It is in this thread - Cat is vomiting. Please help | TheCatSite. Haven't heard back from Dheeksha, but she was supposed to take him to the vet.

Dheeksha Dheeksha - I didn't even see this thread before. Did the vet treat her for a UTI and the fever?
I hope everything is OK - with both of your cats.
When I took her to the vet she didn't have any fever but is extremely scared. Day before yesterday she calmed down a little bit.
Yesterday when I took my other cat to the vet. She started getting scared again. I mean she is getting scared of everything except when she is eating. I had to feed her every now and then to divert her a little bit. It's been 3 days she is acting weird like this.

It's been three days she is acting like this. She acts like this sometimes since she was a kitten but it used to be only for few hours. I don't know what to do. She is hiding under a blanket all day. Her body temperature is getting increased.
There is no vomiting or diarrhea. But my cat has ibd. I feed her hypoallergenic wet food. She is been on this diet for 3 years now.
Also now a days her fur is falling out. And is not growing back. Normally when she is scared her fur falls out. But it used to grow back again. Now it is not.

I don't know what the connection is, but it sure seems the issues going on with your cats are somehow tied together. Are you taking them both to the same vet?

No. Different vets. Yesterday was sunday. The vet I regularly take my cats is closed. So i took him to another vet.
May be they both are having the same issue. They both got sick at the same time. Their symptoms are different. But yesterday early morning they both vomited red liquid.
Today only Snowy vomited red liquid.

I do use multiple vets at the same time and right now have two for my avatar. However, I do tell them both what I am doing so that we don't cross signals and so that they know what else might be going on with other cats I own.
