This is a medical emergency if Cheese hasn't eaten in three days. When cats go that long without eating, they will develop a fatty liver that is fatal without treatment. I agree he could have a respiratory infection, but based on the fact that he's not eating, he has to see a vet now. Please take him into one immediately.
