My cat hasn't eaten anything for three days

Thanks for reaching out with your concern about your cat. I understand how worrying it can be when your furry friend isn't eating. There are a variety of reasons your cat might be avoiding food. It could be due to stress from changes in their environment, dental issues, gastrointestinal problems, or more serious underlying health conditions such as liver disease or infections.



At home, you can try offering a small amount of a tasty, aromatic food like warmed-up wet food or plain boiled chicken to tempt them. Make sure their feeding area is quiet and comfortable to help reduce stress. Ensure water is always available to keep them hydrated.



Watch out for any signs that could indicate a more serious issue, such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, dehydration (check for a dry mouth or sunken eyes), or difficulty breathing. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek veterinary care promptly.



Since your cat hasn’t eaten for three days, it's crucial to get to the bottom of this issue soon. I recommend setting up a video consult with one of our veterinarians on Dial A Vet, where we can discuss your cat’s situation more in detail and determine the best course of action.
