I have been feeding my cat the dog version of Natures Variety Limited ingredient duck and chicken canned food. Both the dog and cat version were the same ingredients and both contained taurine. They have changed their formulations of this food and the dog version no longer contains taurine...
Gus the Cat had numerous teeth removed and we had the same problem with not eating or drinking. The vet prescribed Mirtazapine for him for 3 days. An hour after taking the meds he gobbled down his food. If the problem continues ask the Vet if this med is an option. It worked for us.

Gus the cat wouldn't eat after dental surgery (tooth extractions). After several days of not eating and drinking we were at wits end. The Vet prescribed1/4 of a 15mg tablet of Mirtazapine. Within 2 hours Gus was eating again. Perhaps this drug would be appropriate in your situation. I thought...
