Hi and welcome to TCS. Is she in good health? Has she been seen by your vet? How old is she? Is she on any medications? Is she using the litter box OK? Any other changes in her behavior?

Food going bad? Purchases of new, but the same food, whereby the ingredients have been changed (seems to happen often)?

If she was eating fine before and now is not, then there is something that has changed, and health issues are usually the first thing you want to check out.

Have you opened a new bag of food or purchased a new batch of wet food? It could be something has changed in the manufacturing or supplier. I would try a different food, especially wet food. If you introduce a new dry food, be sure to do a gradual switch as it can cause tummy and poop problems. If that doesn't work, then she will need to go to the vet to be checked out.

Regarding whether she's been seen by a vet, if she had a medical exam did they look at her gums and teeth? It's possible she could be experiencing a problem with her dental health.
