Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I'm sorry Bella hasn't been feeling well. If Bella hasn't been eating for 1 week she should be seen by a vet. Not eating is a very non-specific symptom for many things. Some things are not serious while others are. Possible reasons: fever, pain, infectious diseases, infected uterus, toxin, foreign body. There may be more common causes in your part of the world. A week has been a long time, I would take her to a Vet. Good luck.
