Thanks for reaching out about your kitty’s appetite! When a cat isn’t eating as usual, it can be concerning. There are several potential reasons this might happen. Sometimes, a change in food or environment can lead to a temporary loss of interest in eating. Stressors like a new pet, moving to a new home, or even rearranging furniture can affect appetite. Dental problems, such as tooth pain due to tartar or gum disease, could also make eating uncomfortable for your cat.
Keep an eye out for other symptoms that could indicate a more serious issue. These include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, weight loss, or any signs of pain. If you notice any of these, it’s important to get in touch with a vet promptly.
In the meantime, try offering small, frequent meals of easy-to-digest foods. You might warm up their food slightly to enhance the aroma, making it more appealing. Ensure they have plenty of fresh water available.
If your cat hasn't eaten for more than 24 hours, or if something just doesn't seem right, it's best to consult a vet to find out what's going on. I recommend booking a video consult with Dial A Vet, where we can discuss your cat's symptoms in more detail and determine the next best steps.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
