    Can Stress Make A Cat Become Sick? Latest Update: Ziggy Is Home 6-19-09

    The reason I'm asking this question is because I took both Ziggy and Sky to my vet for their annual exams on Sunday. Ziggy always becomes very stressed out. Her temp was 103 something and they told me it was most likely caused by her being so stressed out. She checked out fine and is a big girl at a little over 14lbs.

    She's always been a good eater and her nickname is "Ziggy the Piggy" because she's always hungry and would eat all of her siblings food if I let her. I noticed last night that she wasn't finishing all of her food and later she threw up several times. She's thrown up her food before but it was because she's eaten too fast.

    She wouldn't touch her food this morning but I was able to get her to lick some canned and some baby food off of my finger. If I put it in a bowl she'd ignore it. She also seems to be a bit lethargic. Before I took her to the vet she was fine. Has this ever happened to any one's cats? I also decided to give everyone some hairball medicine in case this is the cause.

    I'll see how she's doing when I get home tonight and if she's still not doing well then I'll have to bring her to the vet again. I'm sure that my vet is booked and she's going to be taking some time off so she won't be in next week. Please send some positive vibes Ziggy's way. Thanks.
