Our 11 year old snowshoe cat has been strange the last few days. Increasingly sluggish and just sleeping - I havent seen him eat or drink anything. His normally soft coat is greasy. His breathing is labored and flinches away from most touch. He has a history of ear wax build up(or so we were told, my grandmother always thought it was mites) He sleeps in a straight line, all limbs tucked under and his tail tucked completely under his body.
He has been healthy, weighs about 15lbs. Any answers as to what may be wrong would be greatly appreciated.
Get him to the vet asap. This sounds life threatening to me.
