I'm taking her to the vet in 3 hours but I'm worried. I don't think that Emily has eaten since Wednesday, possibly even Tuesday. It's hard to tell for sure because Chessy eats her food, but whenever I feed her she sniffs it and walks away. She's been eating this food for months. Twice yesterday I found what looked like stomach acid that Emily had thrown up because it was liquid...once green and once yellow (sorry that's kind of gross). She will eat treats, so I gave her a few of those and she seemed to be fine. Please pray for my baby, she is only 4. I couldn't sleep last night.

Thank you! They're keeping her for a few hours to do blood tests and x-rays.

Sorry I took so long to update! Emily's x-rays came back normal yesterday so there was no blockage. The bloodwork didn't come back until today, and it showed that she may be dehydrated. She has been drinking normally. The vet gave me 2 days worth of appetite stimulants, which helped her to start eating again (yay!). So it appears she is almost back to normal. Hopefully she will continue to eat when the medicine runs out tomorrow.
Thanks everyone for your prayers and vibes!

I Do hope she continues to eat after the meds have finished.

She's eating on her own, not as much as she used to, but she's eating!
