My cat went out this afternoon, came back, then suddenly had rapid breathing, dilated pupils, and drooled with blood-streaked saliva; she is 50 days pregnant. Is this food poisoning, should I induce vomiting? Symptoms gone but she is lethargic.
Sudden rapid breathing, drooling, and dilated pupils in a cat strongly suggest poisoning. Poisoning signs include lethargy, poor appetite, breathing difficulty, dilated pupils, temperature change, and blue-purple mucous membranes, later diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration; severe cases damage the liver and can be fatal. At home induce vomiting with soapy water or diluted hydrogen peroxide and go to the vet; early treatment saves lives.
Why Do Cats Stare at the Wall?
It is normal for a cat to stare at a blank wall - it may have seen or heard something that caught its attention. An occasional episode is usually nothing to worry about, but if your cat stares at the wall often and shows other unusual behaviors, take it seriously and have a vet check it to rule out illness.
How to Show Kindness to a Stray Cat
Start at a distance and read the cat's mood—soft eyes and a relaxed body mean it's open; a lowered body, hiss, or airplane ears mean back off. Crouch to seem smaller, avoid direct staring, and blink slowly. Food, a gentle voice, and head/chin strokes build trust.
Why Does My Cat’s Ear Smell Bad?
A bad smell from a cat's ears usually means wax buildup, ear mites, otitis, or—rarely—an ear tumor. If the ear flap looks normal, clean with a pet ear solution and watch for a few days; quickly returning dark wax suggests ear mites needing medication. Redness, discharge, or pus points to otitis, which ranges from ear drops and antibiotics for mild cases to a veterinary visit when severe.
What makes a red Teddy look good?
Red is the classic Teddy color and suits a toy-bear look, so pick a smaller one under 8 catties (about 4 kg) for cuteness. Buy from a proper kennel with parent pedigrees. Coat should be curly like lamb's wool and full; almond eyes, bright and clear, not teary.
What happens after a cat gets an injection?

A sick squirrel sneezes, has runny eyes and nose, poor appetite, red eyes, and lethargy. Because squirrels are fragile, untreated colds can become pneumonia with labored breathing and even death. See a vet, keep it warm, and boost nutrition.
How to judge if a Samoyed is purebred?
A pure Samoyed is pure white with thick coat; grab the fur and it should spring back. Eyes are almond-shaped, black and bright. The frame is large and sturdy, not thin. The muzzle is short, wide, and upturned like a smile; a long thin nose suggests mixed breeding.
