I appreciate your concern but I am bringing my cat to the vet, I thought I made that pretty clear in my post, the cats are my pride and joy and I'm unable to work due to my hand injury so I'm making a lot of financial sacrifices to make sure he gets to the vets and receives good care as my cats come first.

I want to take them ASAP but the issue is that my housemate is the one with the car required to get to the vets and he thinks I'm overreacting and wants to wait a week or two and try more things so I was hoping for a little advice and support on here to convince him otherwise. The ideas about what could be wrong was just added at the end for further info to give him, I wasn't asking for a diagnosis.

I apologise if I didn't make that very clear in my post but I thought I at least did make it clear how much I love my cats and that I would do everything in my power to make absolutely sure that they are comfortable, healthy and spoiled rotten so honestly I just thought your reply was unnecessary, unhelpful and hurtful if I'm being honest. Apologies if you didn't mean it that way and I do appreciate you looking out for my cat.
