It started last week. She’d sound like she was gagging on something, but nothing ever came up. It wasn’t like a “I’m gonna puke!” cat gag, it was like it was hard for her to swallow type of gag. She ate kibble yesterday afternoon, but I watched this morning and she had one piece in her mouth, tried to swallow and spit it back up.
I was able to get some Hill’s A/D down her (she wouldn’t eat it on her own, she prefers the kibble) and she kept it down. I also tried a little NutriCal, which she liked. She licked that off of her leg and did a little grooming after that. She also was able to eat a little piece of cornbread.
I’m thinking she either has a sore throat, or there is something wrong in her mouth. Teeth, gums, I dunno. I do know I’ll be taking her to the vet this coming week.
I don’t like it when a cat can’t eat.
