It sounds like you're understandably concerned about your cat's recent symptoms, such as increased sleep, heavier breathing, and warmer ears. These signs can sometimes indicate issues like a fever, respiratory infections, or even stress. Cats are known for hiding their discomfort, so it's important to take these symptoms seriously.

In the meantime, make sure she has a comfortable and quiet place to rest. Keep a close eye on her breathing, and watch for any signs of distress, such as open-mouth breathing or panting. Additionally, observe her eating and drinking habits, as any changes could provide further insight into her health.

Given the combination of symptoms and the level of concern, I strongly recommend that you take her to a veterinarian as soon as possible. A thorough examination by a professional will help determine the cause and ensure she receives the appropriate treatment. Addressing these symptoms promptly is crucial for her well-being.

If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you.
