My old cat is not eating, losing weight, and very lazy. What's wrong?

Question

hello, what should I do, my cat is 12 and is not eating much, losing weight, he's becoming very lazy and just isn't himself. he is beginning to stop meowing and completely becoming to look very old and kind of sad. I don't know if it is anything to do with a tick we found on his leg on Thursday (17/5/18). Can you help?

I believe these very general symptoms are very worrying, i cannot tell you what is the cause as there are many options but i strongly advise that you take him to the vet urgently to have a blood test done and get this checked.
