Hi All,
My foster kitten had a VERY healthy appetite--always meowing & gobbling more than his sister. He has stopped eating and grown visibly gaunt.
I took him to an adoption event on Sunday (he's been to many before) and when we got home he took a tiny bite of dinner. He stopped meowing, purring and sat very quietly.
Monday AM there was vomit outside litter box and diarrhea in litterbox. Monday PM he barely ate a bite but I am at work all day, so not sure if he ate or drank dry food while I was out, some diarrhea in litterbox that night.
Tuesday--again, not sure what he ate if any during the day and no more diarrhea so I don't think he went at all but I was able to get him to eat several cat treats. He was somewhat playful but rested alot in between. Seemed lethargic overall.
Wednesday, couldn't tell if he ate during the day but I mixed his wet food with chicken baby food and he gobbled it down at 7:30pm. Woke up 4:30am, as he vomited up everything (looks like a lot more coming up than going down!). Seemd to have alot more energy, was purring, but rested in between.
Today (Thursday) he seems active, happy, alert and playful. But I couldn't get him to eat cat treats or baby food this AM and he literally took 1 sip of water. I have a vet appt today but was wondering what y'all think this is? Unfortunately, I am trying to keep eye on litterbox but wasn't sure who used it this morning before I woke up.
Thanks for reading it all!
