Hi Kristin,

I agree with the other posters. It would be a good idea to take your kitty in for an exam, a blood panel, and a urinalysis. Even in an overweight kitty, a 3 pound weight loss within a short time is something to be very concerned about.

Some cats do become more needy if they aren't feeling well. My 10 year old girl, Fiona, recently started to become clingy so I took her in. She already had chronic renal failure, but her numbers had gone way up. A change in her treatment has brought one of the numbers down and she has even gained some weight.

Please take your baby in and let us know how it goes.

Regards,
PHKitkat
