I'd have Princess checked out by a vet for this problem. It could be she is suffering from intestinal worms causing her to be so skinny, and the vet can check her feces under the microscope for signs of worms. There could be a medical cause behind her being so skinny, which the vet can check for as well. I'd make an appointment for her for tomorrow. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
