I would be concerned that Emily's kidneys are getting worse. I would recommend taking her back to your veterinarian to check her values and determine if more treatment is warranted. They can get nauseous with kidney disease, which would make her not want to eat and get very weak. I hope Emily feels better soon and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
