My new kitten won't eat. Is he just picky, stressed, or sick?

Question

My new kitten won’t eat the food I got him (dry, wet, or the treats) is it he just doesn’t like chicken or should I be worried? Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | 3.1 lbs

Are you able to fre the same food that Bernard was on before you got him? Some kittens can have food preferences. It might also be the stress of moving to a new home that is causing the decrease in appetite. If he still isn’t eating anything in another day or two or if he seems really lethargic, I would have him examined by the vet.
