Poor Chico! Lethargy and anorexia can occur with a very wide array of conditions, including FIV, feline leukemia, FIP, pancreatitis, gastrointestinal viruses, etc. When cats stop eating, there is a chance that they can develop hepatic lipidosis (fatty liver disease) as well as becoming dehydrated. Chico sounds quite sick and should be examined by his vet immediately so that any necessary diagnostics and treatments can be started.
