Hello all, this is somewhat of a sad situation, so please stop reading if it will bother you. Just a warning it is really killing me right now.
I have a really old cat, (14 or 15 yrs old), and I just got back from college. I was gone since thanks giving. Durring thanks giving the cat was looking really good and was actully following me around and purring and loving life. Now today Im walking around trying to find my cat and he is just sleeping on the floor eyes open. He wasnt dead or anything, but super skinny, and un emotional. Normally I Would say his name and he would pop up and meow and run to me. I put him in front of his food and water, but he just stood there as if he was blind. I put my hand in front of his face and moved it twards his face and no reaction. I think he is blind. He is very skinny, throwing up green water and mushy food. He does go to the bathroom by himself, but he lays down where ever he ends up. He looks like it hurst his back hip when he walks, and it makes me very sad. I do really love this cat, and he has had a wonderfull very long life. I do not want him to suffer his last few while I am gone at college. (my family watches over him while I am gone. so he does have food and such.) He also looks like he is choking and has to swallow a lot. But doesnt throw up.
Does this sound fixable or its just time? Thanks.
