    Lysine is not going to help a fever - it is used to lessen the severity of the herpes virus in cats.

    Other than keeping her warm and making sure she has good quality food and fresh water to drink there is little you can or should do at home -DONT give any human usage pills. The fever is a symptom of something being wrong so you really shouldn't be trying to reduce the fever. You definitely do need to bring her in to the vet as soon as possible.
