It is very hard to get them to eat with a fever. Even after Meeko was on the Meds for a few days she refused to eat or drink. I hope your Cat will start eating.

Agreed, mine would not eat until fever came down. I forced fed her
a little bit of canned into her and syringed water into her several times a day.
She rec'd two different shots at vets and meds twice a day for home.
After a couple days, the fever came down enough and she started eating
again. I tried making her a hamburg, opened tuna, gave her baked
chicken, - nothing worked. When they have a fever, they just wont
eat and vet stated that will certainly decrease any appetite.
I hope the meds will bring it down as it did for me along with water.

Let us know how you make out.

Sorry for the delay, but I spent the weekend relaxing. Maggie's fever came down to 103 on Friday but she still wouldn't eat. The vet felt that since she was out of danger and probably wouldn't eat while there I should take her home. She still would not eat, so I force fed her on Friday & Saturday. The fever was down just under 103 on Saturday. Then yesterday morning when I woke up she was a little more like her self and she was talking to me. Her fever was gone & she ate a little bit on her own. Then her temp went back up to 102.5 in the afternoon. It came back down and she ate a little dinner. This morning she was acting very hungry, but only ate a little dry food. So she is on her way to recovery, but it seems to be slow. Now Jordan has the runs again, and won't eat. Will this never end?
