I was in a very similar situation and just ended up giving him anything he would eat. I had always done the fancier stuff but ended up feeding him Fancy Feast and figured some eating was better than nothing.

I agree that she may have some additional medical issues going on. Generally cats don't start peeing outside the litter box without a reason.

How are mom and kittens doing?

Any updates?

Hi, I am sorry you are going through this, I just had the same thing with my cat and I know how stressful it can be. I wish I had an answer for you but mine did not turn out well. My cat seemed to have an allergic reaction to the appetite stimulant and I had to put him down. My cat stopped...

I had to put my cat down. When I came home from work he was breathing really hard like he was having an asthma attack and was having trouble walking. I don't know if it was an allergic reaction to the appetite stimulant or what but I wasn't putting him through any more.

I am concerned about the cat bites. Have been to the doctor to have them checked out?

As mentioned by poolcat, you may have to trap her to get her to the vet. Don't worry, she will trust you again. I have never had a cat that took more than a day or so to go back to normal behavior.

Have you reached out to Best Friends in Kanab? They might not be able to take the cat but maybe can give the names of some other organizations in your area.
