:hellosmiley: and welcome to TCS!

It is no good for a cat not to eat for so many days. Please bring her to the vet ASAP and do not wait for an answer here.

And do keep us updated after the visit to the vet. We hope that your cat will be fine and will eat soon after the vet's visit as they can diagnose the reason why your cat is not eating.

You need to have her checked by a Vet to try to figure out what is wrong. Not eating for 5 days can be very serious. she could have a blockage somewhere down the line. It could be anything, really. Bit it's serious because cat's who stop eating can develop Fatty Liver, which can be deadly. Is she urinating and having bowel movements? If so, that is a good sign. Does she appear to be hungry at all? Does she go to her food dish and then walk away? Lick her lips when she sees food? I hate to recommend trying to force feed her just in case there IS a blockage, not having any more information than you have provided so far, but if she is eliminating both #1 and #2, then I think it's ok to force feed if you cannot get her in to be seen immediately, but if you need to, take her to an emergency Vet. IMHO, this is now urgent.

This is grounds for an emergency vet visit, I would not wait one more minute.
