Thank you for submitting your question regarding Koko. I recommend contacting her veterinarian today. She may need to be seen again. Cats can actually develop severe liver disease if they go too long without eating. So she needs to start eating soon. Subcutaneous fluids can be given under the skin to help rehydrate her as I worry that she has become dehydrated from not eating and drinking properly. Her medications may need to be altered as well. I hope this information helps!
