Hello all! I've had my Lucky for 9 years and he chose me as his human. He grew up in a home with other cats and dogs and never minded the company. I recently moved him in with me with my boyfriend and I and it's been almost a year and he's loved it. Lucky had to adjust to a new home for the first time in his life and my boyfriend's cat which was tough but just took a couple weeks. Unfortunately my boyfriend's cat got sick and died within a couple months of a very fast cancer.
Lucky has been the only animal in his life for the first time in 9 years and always has LOVED his food. Vets always call him Garfield. He's a few lbs over weight. He became so food obsessed I'd have to plan his meals every 6 hours making them small of course and counting calories but all he'd do is meow at us and bite when he was hungry.
The last few weeks though (before the kitten I'll get to that soon) he hasn't wanted food. For some reason. We got him this salmon oil to pour over his food once a day he seemed to like it then wanted nothing to do with it so we stopped pouring it over and he still doesn't want his favorite kibble. I've tried many different foods but he was meh.
Forward to the kitten. She's a foster and very playful. Lucky seems to not like her at all as he's completely stopped eating for a few days now and won't even sleep at the foot of my bed anymore. I can't bribe him with wet food because he has ALWAYS puked it up! He doesn't hiss or swat at her mainly tries to avoid her. I show him his food bowl and he looks interested for a second then sees the bowl and is like no. I've changed bowls. I really don't know what to do.
Lucky has a vet appt monday but all they've ever said is HA HA cats like to puke don't they weird things they are! Like wtf?
I'm taking him to a cat only vet so maybe this will be more thorough. They got amazing reviews I'm just worried sick
