Help! Cat has Partial Paralysis

[snarlingcoyote]

I have just discovered that my 'meezer has partial paralysis of her hing legs. She can move her legs but they won't support her weight. She's not in any pain, and the legs are both warm (toes aren't turning blue or anything). She's happy to let me pet her and hold her.

My DH is out of town on a fishing trip, so it's just me in the house.

I googled it and found out that it's likely caused by heart disease and that I should get her to the vet ASAP.

It's 10:00PM now here. Should I call the vet NOW or wait until the morning? I've set her up in the computer room away from one of my other cats, who likes to tease her. (They get along, but he does like to tease.)

Take her to the 24/7 Emergency vet now. If you don't know of one, your vet should have the number for one on their answering service message.

Why would you even ask for advice on the internet? If this were my cat I would've had them at the vet RIGHT AWAY, I wouldn't be asking the question online!

Go to the vet RIGHT NOW!

I had this happen o my DD's rat except it was one side and not both legs. It was a stroke and heartbreaking to watch. I took Stitch to my BIL (a vet) and he put her to sleep.
I hope your cat might be OK.
