Hi All!
I have this kitty for a couple weeks while her regular caregiver is out of town. She ate well the first 2 days but then became very fussy about food. The problem is not appetite as she is begging for food constantly. I have given her every kind of Tiki Cat food, tuna, sardines, cooked canned chicken, cooked frozen fish, every kind of Fancy Feast that has liquid because they like to lick the juice, Stella & Chewys freeze dried, Rad Cat raw, Primal Raw Rabbit, varies other canned foods and KMR. Someone said to try raw goats milk and NV freeze dried. I am really worn out over this. She eats a little of this and a little of that & sometimes none of what is offered. She was surrendered to the no kill shelter where I used to work earlier this year because her owner died and was deemed to old for any of the permanent solutions for hyperthyroidism. She is on Methimazole twice per day.
She seems to be enjoying my home. It is less noisy and busy than her regular place where she stays in a room because she is afraid of the resident cats. My only goal here was to spoil her a little bit and now I can't even get her to eat.
My beloved last cat had intestinal cancer and behaved like this. Begging to eat but could eat what was offered. She however is not vomiting.
Does anyone know what would cause this situation?
