Oh, no! That's horrible! Well, at least she is at home so you can take care of her and take her to the vet.

How long was she away ... not sure when she came back. Is she still alowed to go outside? She may have gotten into something. Do you use antifreeze in the cars where you live? She may have gotten into that or maybe some bad food or rat poison. Is she current on her vaccinations? What are her symptoms and what did the vet say?

she was away for about 2 weeks
but she was fine when she came back
i think it is beacuse our neighbours are a rat poison company, and they always leave the poison's outside
maybe there was a a leak and she drank some of it
she is up to date in her vaccinations, and the vet wasnt sure what it was, as they only did some tests on her

How is she now? Ingesting rat poison or any poison is very serious. You need to keep her inside so she doesn't get the chance to eat poison or run away again.

she still deosnt want to eat anything, and she still cant walk very well, but she seems happier inside than out, because she isnt an inside cat
we are giving her medicine, but i dont know if that is working yet or not

the medicine seems to be working, but not much has happened
Maggie can just walk now but when she does, she always walks to a corner and lays in there, facing the wall

She is not feeling well ... and you MUST keep her inside whether she wants to stay inside or not; NO exceptions! What medicine are you giving her and did you recently put any flea product on her and, if so, what brand?
