Cat not eating ~4 days; bloodwork showing issues with liver, x-ray normal, vet referred to different location w/ ultrasound

I'm really sorry to hear about your cat's situation. When a cat stops eating, especially for a few days, it can sometimes lead to issues like hepatic lipidosis, a condition where fat builds up in the liver. Since the bloodwork indicates liver problems and your vet has suggested an ultrasound, it seems they're checking for the underlying cause. It's reassuring that the x-ray came back normal, as this rules out some potential issues.



In the meantime, try to encourage your cat to eat by offering small amounts of their favorite foods or warming up their meals to make them more tempting. Wet food is often more appealing than dry food, and its moisture can aid in digestion.



Keep an eye out for symptoms like vomiting, jaundiced (yellowing) gums or eyes, extreme lethargy, or any changes in behavior. These could signal that the condition is becoming more serious and requires immediate attention.



Given the situation, it might be best to discuss your concerns with a vet through a real-time consultation. This can give you more specific guidance and reassurance on necessary steps to take next. You can book a video consult with one of our vets at Dial A Vet to dive deeper into your cat’s condition and get personalized advice.
