hi, my domestic shorthair tabby is around 8 months currently 7.3 lbs. she refuses to eat. she would get excited as I prepare the food but smells it and leave. I have 2 cats and they play all the time, chasing each other, zoomies, her energy level is very normal. I brought her to the vet regarding this problem and did an x-ray and 2 bloodwork and 3 physical examinations (at different vets to get an opinion). All came back pretty normal. Her teeth are perfectly healthy She was a little constipated but I have been feeding her pumpkin and adding some laxatives into her food. She recently got mouth ulcers and a paw infection so the vet said that might be allergies so I was prescribed some steroids. But she doesn't sneeze, lick herself intensely, vomit, or have diarrhea. Perfectly "healthy" cat with no symptoms other than not eating. 1. can very mild allergies make a cat not want to eat at all? I give her 4 food options- dry, soup, pate, and freeze-dried. nothing seems to work. I also have separated her from my other cat so her food doesn't get stolen. Is she just being the pickiest cat or is it allergies?? has anyone experienced this? she has been not eating well for around 2 weeks now - she still eats, but only 1/4-1/2 of her normal intake
