My cat won't eat or drink, what should I do?

Answer by  Esteme (274)

First, make sure it is not eating and drinking when you're not looking; next, try changing the type of food. Your cat could be sick or just depressed; make sure it does not spend too much time alone and has new toys, and then take it to the vet if it does not improve.

If your cat has not been eating or drinking any water for more than a day or two you need to take the cat to the vet immediately.

If your cat is not eating any food or drinking any liquids the first thing you need to do is to be sure both food and water are fresh. If that is the case, and your cat still won't eat or drink you do need a vet visit fairly soon.

One of the first signs of serious illness is a cat that will not eat or drink. You need to seek medical help for the cat immediately as it could be organ failure.
