My cat was tested, and has a bit of an overactive thyroid, but she won't eat OR drink. The vet thinks she doesn't have kidney problems, and my cat's mouth is in good shape. My cat was put on thyroid medicine, but it was making her liver overwork, so she's off it.
But ever since she was diagnosed, she just won't eat or drink. At first, when given dry food, she'd eat it, but if given to her again, she wouldn't eat it. Same thing happened to wet food and treats, such as greenies. Before my cat went off her medicine, not only her tests showed abnormality in her liver, but there was also the possibility of her having an infection, so she was given an antibiotic. Her appetite came back briefly, but after she finished her antibiotic, she wouldn't eat or drink again. Wet food, dry food, greenies, she just won't eat ANYTHING. She went back to the vet today, and they gave her some fluids, and did more tests on her regarding her liver (to see if it's going back to normal). I wonder if she does have kidney disease.
Another alarming thing is that she hides. She's not the social, loving cat who would cuddle with me anymore. All she does is hide under the beds
I'm worried sick. I fear that I may have to put her down. She's barely 11
