Evie started eating slower than usual Thursday morning and Thursday night. When I got home Friday and gave them their dental treats, she gagged a few times and pawed at her mouth like the had something stuck on a tooth. I looked in her mouth, even swept my finger around and towards her throat to see if a piece of something got stuck and found nothing. She wasn't hiding throughout the eveing, but she was staying in one general place on the sofa. She didn't play with her knockoff Da Bird, her favorite toy, even though I could tell she wanted to (her pupils dilated, she crouched down, tail started to flick).
This morning, she ate her breakfast slowly again and didn't finish it (although neither did Dexter and Emerson...I think they are all iffy on the brand I chose to give that morning). Before I fed her, she gagged twice again and pawed. Poor sweetness.
She is still eating and peeing and pooping (good consistency, no diarrhea/soft poops), I just don't think she feels very good. Is this just something to keep an eye on? My vet has Saturday hours and I can get DH to take her Monday if need be. Later this morning, she was sitting next to me and purring/rolling over so I could give her chin and belly scritches, so maybe she is feeling better. I haven't seen her gag again since breakfast (~6 am).
Are there any outward symptoms to tell if a cat is feverish?
