My 3yr old cat won't eat, drink, or use his litter box. I've tried to feed and water him by a dropper for the past two days but he still won't open his mouth can anyone help me with home remedies I should try. I can't afford to go to the vet and get him checked out or any medicines to make him feel better he can still walk but he seems dizzy and just wants to sleep on a pile of clothes in a dark place in my house. If anyone can help me just leave a comment below. Thank you.

Is there any way at all that you can get him to the vet? Perhaps your vet accepts care credit or will allow payment installments? Maybe a friend can loan you the money? If the cat is truly not eating, drinking or using the box at all, that can be life threatening.

I'm sorry, but if he hasn't eaten, drunk, or eliminated anything in the last 2 days, there is something serious going on, and only a vet will be able to help.

Barring any wounds, it could be something he ingested; string, food, plants, or other possibilities if he is an indoor/outdoor cat.  You need to think about these possibilities when you talk to the vet.

Other possibilities could be medical, which you would need to have tests done for.
