Hi i have a cat who isnt eating and vomited bial this morning, but she is drinking water. Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Female | spayed | 12 years and 11 months old | 10 lbs

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I’m sorry to hear Cuppy isn’t feeling well. If she isn’t eating, I recommend taking her to a vet to find out why. Cats cannot go more than a few days without eating. They will start by doing a physical exam and will likely recommend lab work to see how her organs are functioning and the status of her red and white blood cells. They may also run a thyroid test to determine if it’s over-active. The vet may need to take radiographs of her abdomen to rule out a foreign object or other abnormalities. Once a diagnosis is made, they should be able to give her some medications to help her feel better. Good luck and kisses to Cuppy!

Cody needs to see a vet immediately. When cats don't eat for at least three days, they will develop a fatty liver which is fatal without treatment. She hasn't eaten for three days, and is now in danger of developing a fatty liver. It's also concerning she has vomited and gotten thin. She has to have veterinary care now, there is nothing you can do for her at home. Please take her into a vet immediately.

Hello, sorry to hear about Pinky. She may be sick from an infectious organism such as a parasite or a virus. The other potential cause may be associated with ingestion of a foreign material such as string. If the vomiting and diarrhea continue, Pinky should be evaluated by your veterinarian soon. In the interim, ensure she has access to plenty of water and feed her very small frequent meals only. Best of luck and hope this helps!
