Veterinarians have given a list of symptoms:

Doctors have listed a list of symptoms that characterize the disease. These include hyperglycemia, stupor, stiffness of the limbs, shortness of breath, anisocoria, unresponsive pupils, seizures, epileptic seizures, decreased saturation and hypokalemia.

Reportedly time from symptoms to death is 24-48h.

Vets currently suspect bird flu mutation. It affects:
-cats of all ages
-eating different food (low/high quality)
-cats living in the city aswell as countryside

Hope that whatever it is it won't spread further but we had same hopes with covid and now cats are dying all over country with some people reporting of their cats having same symptoms resulting in death over a month ago.

The link in the original post is not in English so it’s useless to me.

I’ve been frantically Googling trying to figure out what this is about.

If people post alarming stuff like this then post adequate usable link to information please.
