Why is my cat walking oddly and lying down? Is she in pain?

Poor Felix. I'm concerned that he is in pain. Unfortunately there are no OTC pain relievers you can give him. Many human ones are toxic to cats and are fatal if given. I'd have him seen by a vet now.

Lying down a lot and reacting to touch indicates that Oi is likely in pain. Please make an appointment to have Oi seen by a vet as soon as possible. These symptoms could be due to a muscular or nerve injury, a fractured bone, trauma, a mass, or a foreign body in the paw or leg. Some infectious diseases and joint diseases such as arthritis or joint infection can cause limping and gait changes as well. Your vet can assess Oi by doing a physical exam, and will make recommendations for further diagnostics/ treatments as needed. Pain medications meant for humans can be very dangerous and even deadly for cats due to toxicity, so I do not recommend giving any to Oi without consulting with your vet.

Hi Courtney! It sounds like Millie is in pain, and that’s why she can’t jump on things she used to, is walking stiffly, and is sleeping a lot. Please do not give her any human pain medications as many are toxic to cats and are fatal if given. You need to take her into a vet today or tomorrow to get checked out. I hope this helps!

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Suzi. I recommend that he sees a veterinarian right away. She will likely need x-rays of her sore limb to ensure that she does not have a fracture. From there, pain medication will be prescribed to help her feel better. In the meantime, do not give any over-the-counter pain medications as these can be toxic to cats. I hope this information helps!

"Loafing" and hunching like that can be a sign of pain, so I think you're right to worry, especially if Ova is also not eating as much as she used to. I think it would be a good idea to schedule a vet visit, and also bring in a sample of her stool to check for things like parasites, blood in the stool, etc that could be causing some stomach pain. Your vet can also work with you to see if maybe she is allergic to her food and needs a diet change to help with appetite and pain, and can also help rule out more serious issues such as inflammation, tumors, obstructions, etc in the gut.

It sounds as though Rosemary is in pain. It is difficult to say for sure where since I cannot examine her. If the problem persists and does not go away on its own, I would recommend having her examined by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

Poor Lolo, she might have a severe ear infection or an inner ear polyp, which can be easily found in young cats. There is not much you can do at home for her, she needs a vet examination to confirm wether it is an ear condition or something that affects other parts of the nervous system. It is important to assess the timpanic membrane prior to using any ear medications. Hope she gets better soon !
