[quote=Anonymous]I posted in another thread that our 13 year old cat seemed to have gotten old over night. In addition to geriatric behavior like falling off the edge of the couch and looking generally listless and uninterested in life, he was also doing this weird twitching, and he flexed his legs and paw pads with each breath. It was really weird. Last night I couldn't sleep and suddenly realized his odd decline had started right about the time we got new food bowls. I got up and changed them back to our old bowls (human cereal bowls). It's been 24 hours -- so whatever he had during the night plus breakfast this morning -- and he is way, way better already. He's not twitching, he gave himself a bath and his fur looks healthy and shiny, and he's responding to being pet with a half-purr and a stretch.

Is this wishful thinking? Could there really be some kind of toxic coating on the food bowls that was leaching into his food and water? I've had water bottles and travel coffee mugs that have made me feel sick so I think it's possible.
