I’ve got a 20 something year old cat, did mostly the same thing, fell off the bed, wouldn’t stand, started crying, thought she’d had a stroke. Rushed her to the vet...
Turns out she had a bad ear infection that hadn’t shown up in any way before this.
She’s the PuffnStuff, and she’s still going strong.
(Smiles) It does my heart good to hear about furry family members reaching the big 2-0. I seem to recall an age chart at my vet’s office giving cats ages. At 2 years, they are the human equivalent of a 24 year-old. For every additional year of life, add another 4 years.
Grief! She is quite the geriatric girl. Good care will accomplish that.
