What can i do to fatten my cat back up while getting rid of fleas? Also she stopped eating her dry food now she eats wet mostly or sometimes only just her wet food, is that a problem ?

Have her examined by your veterinarian to rule out any medical causes for her lack of weight gain. You can feed a good quality canned food. To get weight on her, feed 1.5 to 2 cans of food daily. If she will eat more, you can feed her more. Once she reaches her target weight, cut back on the amount fed.
