Cats are very difficult to make eat; if they do not feel good. So, often times they won't eat no matter what. I suggest you try giving her some canned cat food - heat it up for a few minutes first. The warmth increases the aroma of the food and gets them more interested in eating. If that doesn't help you can try canned tunafish or human baby food in jars (meat flavors only). If she won't eat on her own you will have to force feed her. Please try to get a vet to see her as soon as possible.
