I need some advice. My cat Rambo does not want to eat anymore. This has been going on for a couple of days now. He normally eats dry cat food so I thought I wouldtry a different kind of food. He wasn't interested in that either. So, I bought some canned food and he doesn't want that either. He is also spending a lot of time under my bed. He comes out once in awhile (especially when I take my bath, he loves to sit on the edge of the tub with me)
I am going to call the vet the first thing tomorrow but I just wanted to know your thoughts.
Thanks! Rambo's mom-Penny

Have you tried tuna? That's usually irresistable.

A trip to the vet is a good idea, glad to hear you're taking him. Is he drinking water?

I tried giving him some tuna and he didn't want it. He never has liked to eat tuna though. He is drinking water.

I am glad you are taking him to the vet . It sounds to me that he is for sure sick . Let us know what is going on with Rambo after the vet visit . I do hope that he was trinking though right ?

There's no place like home
A few days not eating sounds like a serious health issue. I suggest you get him to the vet first thing tomorrow morning. Other than hiding under the bed, are there any other unusual signs?

He really isn't doing anything else out of the ordinary.

Please get him to the vet quickly not eating for a few days can open him up for some serious and sometimes deadly health issues. Try cottage cheese, shredded cheese, chicken baby food- anything to get something into his stomach and take him to the vet in the morning.
