That's alot of symptoms there, and would be very difficult to narrow them down without a vet looking at Brat, probably doing some lab work and maybe an xray.
When is the vet appt?
Keep us posted.

Brat is a mostly outdoor tomcat. He started marking his territory when he was younger. We rent a place so we couldn't keep him indoors with his spraying. I am thinking he got into something, got it on his coat and cleaned it off. He is still eating, that's a good sign. I am unsure if I should get him canned food since it has water in it. May help him stay hydrated. He seems to respond a lot more when his daddy pets him and talks with him. He actually purred for him. I was relieved. Star seems to supportive. Wants to be next to him, when usually she wants away from him, ( he's a typical male teen cat) he wants to pick on her. I could tell he wanted to pick on her but just didn't have the energy.
There is no such thing as failure, just learning experiences.

Maybe there is a reason you haven't had him neutered, but now might be the time to get it done.
He'll be less inclined to wander, and get into any cat fights (they may happen far away from your place, as tomcats do fight over territory, females, and other things).
Spaying and neutering in general keeps cats healthier. Please get it done when you take him in. If money is a problem, Humane societies or shelters have discount vouchers (ask them if they do), or a few of us here could chip in.
I know you'll do the best for your boy.

I kiss cats on the lips:)
The lump might be an abcess(sometimes you cant see a bite/scratch), and got infected, leading to internal infection making him sick and lethargic.
I dont know, it is hard to tell over the computer.
If possible, get him vetted and get him fixed. That will help with fighting.
I will pray for your boy
Thank you so much Michelle!
Please be responsible, spay and neuter your pets!
I've been BOO'd!!! Thanks Lori!
