Okay, Here's the skinny:
I recently took my cat to an emergency Vet because he has been acting strangely. First we found out he has fleas, and he's been over grooming himself to try and get rid of them. We Used advantage, and he seemed fine. But then we found out he's been lying in his litterbox all day, and sleeping in it last night. The vet told me there was no Blockage, but he may have a urinary tract infection.
They gave him some medicine: Amoxil and Metacam (Aliquot). when I got him home, he actually stayed in his pet carrier (a first...) and really hasn't moved from it since (about 4 hours). He hasn't gotten up to get any water or food, and hasn't tried to use the bathroom. He's just sitting there and I'm really worried about him. Does anyone know if this is an effect of the medicine or is it something else? Is he a bit dazed form the antibiotics or is he scared? Should I urge him to leave the box? Should I force him to walk around? Please help, I'm really freaked about this.
