My cat ate about two pieces of chocolate candy, the Russian purple-wrapped imported kind.
Chocolate toxicity in cats comes from theobromine and caffeine; if unsure, take the cat and the candy's ingredient list to a vet, and hydrogen peroxide can induce vomiting at home. Keep the cat calm during recovery.

How does a cat show it wants to be picked up?

My 4-month-old cat hasn’t eaten or drunk since its rabies vaccine a week ago
Refusing food and water can result from pickiness, indigestion, stress, or illness. After vaccination, reduced appetite and sleepiness are common reactions; keep the cat warm and in a quiet space and offer high-protein, nutritious food. If it also seems unwell, rule out panleukopenia, digestive disease, or FIP.
How long after birth before a mother cat’s nest should be changed?
Generally change the nest about 1 month after birth, but it is not necessary. Once kittens walk they follow the mother and pick their own spots, so no special nest needed. Do not move kittens in the first month or the mother may abandon them due to smell. Change only after weaning when they eat independently.
