Question
My cat was healthy.  I found him dead outside, with
a very swollen body and bulging black eyes.  His eye color
was a beautiful light green.  What could have cause his
death? I only saw one spot of blood on his side near his
stomack.

Answer
Terry -

I am sorry for your loss.  Unfortunately, I have no idea what caused the death of your pet.  I am not familiar with the health status of your kitty or her surroundings and there is no way I can make an educated guess about what happened to your cat.  Perhaps if you  share pertinent information with your veterinarian, he/she can better help you in determining how your pet passed away.

Best Regards,
