I would have Zarry checked out by a vet as soon as possible. There are two conditions that come to mind that can cause a cat to lose weight despite having a good appetite: hyperthyroidism and diabetes. A vet will examine Zarry and discuss his medical history, and will probably recommend bloodwork to look for a diagnosis.
