Not sure, Bunglycat. He was originally found a few days ago by someone and taken to a lady in my street who's got 5 cats, so assumed she'd know what to do. She knew he needed the vets but couldn't afford it, so hoped with some TLC, he'd recover. (She's glad i came along!)
This morning, i went into his room and he's hardly touched his food, had a tiny wee in the litter tray and scraped the litter about a foot away from it, awww! He walked into the hallway, then the kitchen (glad my 2 weren't in!) and he's so strange. He's totally focused on moving forwards-like a robot, i described him on CC and that's just how he is. He never lifts his head for fuss and just stands there with his head down.
I AM worried about the RSPCA, so much so i had a chat with Heather last night. Having said that, a couple of years ago i was trying to trap a cat with his scalp missing!! (Awful sight) The Inspector said it was probably an untreated abcess. The same day, another little tabby had appeared-the Inspector put him in a carrier without it even struggling. He said 'you realise this will be pts don't you?' " Two weeks later, he came back for the trap (never caught the cat but he appeared the next day with a tiny wound!) He said 'btw, we treated that cat and it's been put up for rehoming' so i haven't given up yet. Having said that, this poor boy is just 'not right'-he's so thin, there's nothing to him when you pick him up. I'll make sure i know where he's being taken and get an update!
He'll be in local paper tonight and i've advertised him on missing pet register. Might knock some doors today.
