im not sure if emergency is needed but defintely get him to a vet as soon as possible. With the christmas times, if nothing is open, i would call emergency services.

Have they been altered ? Your male cat must be off his foodstuff by using fact he's thinking mating .. Urine spots around the domicile must be him or her spraying . whether he's neutered he must be dissatisfied via cat calling exterior and the presence of alternative cats interior the section arising to the door.. Cats do have a prepared experience of scent and listening to is tremendous while a woman is on call interior the section.. must be he's responding . At this degree i could in basic terms shop an actual eye on the two one in each of them over the weekend . I they do show the different indications of ailment i could take them to the vets.

Please call your vet - they may be able to give you some advice over the phone
My cat was throwing up a lot and the vet advised us to take him in immediately - he had a blocked bladder which could have been very serious
He was given some tablets and some liquid to line his stomach - it helped
Keep an eye on him/her, blocked urinary tracts can lead to kidney disease which is fatal in cats - make sure you are aware when he/she last passed urine/stools. I would not feed him/her, move his/her food away and just make sure he/she has plenty of fresh water - he/she could also be dehydrated. If he/she is an outdoor cat, keep them indoors and monitor their toilet habits
Please check things with a vet, they are too precious to ignore

YES!!! That's what they're there for. There could be something seriously wrong here. If you call the after hours number for your cat's regular vet it won't cost you anything and it would be better safe than sorry. Especially on Christmas Eve. Good Luck and Merry Christmas.

Phone your emergency vet. You can always ask for advice & then see about visit if you are worried about cost. It cost me about £70 for emergency call out but they charged me very little for the meds my cat needed. Good luck & hope all goes well

Yes I think you should take your cat to the vet. Get a thorough check and find out what's wrong with the cat

if it was a child, you wouldnt hesitate to call the emergency doctor or take it to the hospital. Take your poor cat to a vet NOW and stop wasting time

If you're concerned it's best to get your cat checked tonight rather than risking it overnight. You'll need to pay an out-of-hours emergency fee but if your cat is needing fluids or urgent treatment it's best to pay rather than risk losing your cat through delay.

if you think he is ill enough yes,
my dog cut her mouth open yesterday and had to have an op on it last night, got her back this afternoon .
when i collected her the vet had gone home and the nurse said they will send the bill in the post !! the bill is likely to be good !!! but shes worth it.
