My cat is acting strange

My cat Meg has been acting strange. She slinks low to the ground, growls when I pick her up (especially when I touch her stomach) and she is frequently meowing (not normal for her). She seems to be eating/using the litter regularly. Her nose was cold and wet, but she is acting like something is bothering her stomach. She didn't sleep at all last night.

Hello there,

I totally agree that your fur baby needs to go the vet and ASAP.
I suspect that she is probably in pain. As far as the constant meowing,
I read recently that cats meow sometimes like this to console themselves when they are sick and in pain. Please get your kitty to a vet and get her looked at.  I wish you both well.  Eve ( mother of Sammy the cat )

First thing that comes to mind for me is to ask if she has ever been in heat.  Even if you think she's been spayed, some of the clinics are such assembly lines that sometimes an ovary gets missed (had it happen to a cat I gave someone).  Otherwise be sure to get her to the vet.

Hi Meg,

I agree with Jade 100%! I am assuming your little girl has been spayed?
That is the only other thing I can think for her yowling!

Let us know how she is, K?
