Why Is My Cat Lethargic and Sleeping All Day?
Cats naturally sleep 12–18 hours a day, so lots of sleep isn't always illness. But if a cat can't be woken, seems dull when awake, or shows reduced urine, soft stools, fast breathing, appetite loss, or eye/nose discharge, it may be sick and should see a vet.

My turtle has blood at the nostrils, breathes with difficulty, and is listless, just sleeping.
Nose bleeding and breathing difficulty may come from a hard fall damaging liver and lungs, or from respiratory infection or pneumonia. See a vet promptly; if unavailable, try antibiotic nose drops, but seek care if no improvement.
