(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms

The owner says this cat is out all day and then comes in the house at night. The pet is very proficient at catching mice, she usually leaves 1-3 per day on the steps to the house for the owner. The owner found a mouse the pet had left for them Monday morning (08/05), the difference with this mouse is the owner says it was fat and bloated. The pet started to behave abnormally Monday night, she was hiding, not wanting to interact with the owner, not eating and very lethargic. The pet's condition has not improved, she started with diarrhea the next day that has progressed to being more severe. The owner has been taking the pet into the DVM on/off all week, they have done many diagnostics and are not finding anything significant. The owner is concerned with a relay toxicity. The caller was advised that relay toxicity is unlikely unless these dead mice are main source of nutrition for the cat.
