Hello.. I am so sorry about Casper, but the best thing to do is find another veterinarian & get a second opinion. A cat that does not eat for this long is in serious danger of developing a possibly fatal liver condition called hepatic lipidosis. She sounds like she needs to be hospitalized, thoroughly examined for the possibility of an unexpelled fetus, infection, or other underlying condition that is making her so sick. I hope you can have her seen soon. Good luck & thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
