definitely take her to a vet as there are no pictures here and of course we can’t see her here so we can’t know for sure
however… it almost sounds to me like a URI…. that’s an upper respiratory infection…. for this all you need is clavamox… or your vet might give you a different medicine… it is just an antibiotics which you can give your cat for 10-14 days.
cats that have a URI tend not to drink and the clicking/popping noise that you are hearing is congestion. if she is not eating or drinking, than of course she wont be using the bathroom either. because she is not throwing up, it is even more so why i think it is a URI. the reason why she is drooling/foaming from the mouth is probably because she cannot breathe through her nose and is breathing from her mouth. check her eyes and explain what they look like. a wagging tail actually means contentment so that is nothing to be concerned with.
URIs are not terribly serious… however if left unattended and you dont do anything about it, it can indeed become serious. i would call your vet… i guess monday because it is probably closed tomorrow (although if you feel it is an emergency you could probably get in tomorrow….when you call a vet’s office, usually there is another number for emergency) but try to get an appointment as soon as possible and have your vet properly evaluate her.
i hope i have helped and best of luck!
oh and as far as eating…. try wet (canned) food and if she refuses to eat, rub it onto her mouth/nose area so that she is forced to lick it which might stimulate her appetite.
She might be coughing up a hairball or vomitting. If this is prolonged, you need to get her to a vet.
I recommend that you stop for a second and think about what you would do if you or one of your family members were exhibiting the same symptoms. Would you:
A. Log on to the internet and ask random strangers for a diagnosis/treatment.
B. Watch and wait for things to get worse.
C. Go to the emergency room.
HINT: The answer is always C.
Your cat needs medical attention. Only a veterinarian can provide this. If you don’t have an emergency vet clinic in your area, call every vet within a 100 mile radius until one of their recordings gives you an after hours number to call (most do). Get in touch with one of them and get to the vet… stat.
You need to call your vet right now. They usually have a 24 hour answering service for emergencies and they will redirect you to the vets home so you can talk to him/her about this. It sounds serious. You need to call ASAP!
Any way this goes you need to get her into an emergency vet.It could be a.. an abscessed tooth that needs pulled, it could be b.. a bad cold (yes cats get them) and it needs antibiotics, or c… a chicken bone. the fact that the cat is not peeing is also a giant concern. that could indicate urinary tract infection which can kill a cat in a matter of a weekend.there too it needs antibiotics. Any way it goes you need to do the nearest animal hospital and take her immediately.
Take her to the vet! She might have been hit on the head. Rap her up in warm blankets and drive to the vet!
Rabies might be my first thought however whatever it is it sounds serious but to be safe you should take it to the vet and always take precautions as a serious or lethal threat.
I’m sorry to tell you your cat is probably dying of congestive heart failure. Especially if her lips are bloody. When my guy died, that was what finally got him. Bring her to the vet to confirm it.
