Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Bebe. Oh no, that is not good. It's actually very serious when a cat won't eat, and if they go 72 hours without eating, they will develop a fatty liver which is fatal without treatment. She is approaching that time now. The best thing you can do for her is take her into a vet immediately. I hope this helps!
