Kitten Not Eating...

Far as I can tell, my 6-month-old, Savannah, has been eating poorly for about a week now. I see her eat, but it's very sporadic; I don't notice much of a change in the food in her bowl (which is measured out twice daily).

Prior to this issue, people suggested I put her food in a box (preventing our male access); but she eats our male's food, too (when she eats), and will continue to do so.

I can't lock myself into a room with her for hours to watch her eat (or to allow her her own private dining time). And I can't lock her in a room by herself to allow her to eat because she scratches at the carpeting under doors to "escape".

I know that she's eaten the fur (and skin) off a number of toy mice and am wondering if she might be experiencing a blockage of some sort. I'd hate to jump the gun, though, and rack up a lot of unnecessary debt, if there's just something that I could be doing differently.

Thanks,

Jenk

Feed canned food and a little bit of pumpkin with it (canned) and keep the mice away from Savannah-

Hissy,

I've already thrown out all mice, including a brand new package of them. She is a crazy-you-know-what cat...eating the skin/ fur off her toy mice. Oy! BTW, unless there's a dramatic change for the better in the next 48 hours, she's going to the vet on Thursday to hopefully find a problem (or at least eliminate some to narrow things down a bit).

PS: Savannah isn't touching any canned food, except what I can get her to lick off of my finger (which is very little)--another reason for the vet visit; she used to love her canned food.

Thanks,

Jenk
