There are many things that could cause the symptoms you describe. Kidney disease, diabetes, liver disease, and cancer among other causes. I would highly encourage you to have her evaluated by your veterinarian as soon as possible. Cats who don’t eat for several days can cause significant liver problems regardless of the reason they are not eating. Your veterinarian will likely recommend blood work and maybe an x-ray to help make a diagnosis. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.
