Stop the medication immediately. Not only do you not know what illness you are treating, you also do not know the proper dosage for any medication they might need. This is a job that only a vet can take on. These cats are in serious need of medical attention immediately. You are not trained or qualified to practice medicine on them, hoping that whatever you dole out will fix the problem.

You state you have had them for 2 weeks, three more days will make it nearly 3 weeks. Within 2-3 days of a cat not eating, irreverible damage can be done to the kidneys and liver. Often times this is a terminal situation, at a minimum it is an expensive one. Extreme supportive care is often needed once damage is done, this includes IV fluids, force or tube feeding, and more. Sometimes this is needed for the rest of the cats life. If you are not prepared to get stop medication and seek treatment immediately, please return them to their former owner. I can assure you they would rather have them back than have them suffer uneccesarily.

Also please know that having a pet is a gigantic responsibility and can be very costly. Emergencies happen no matter what sort of care is given, and to have an illness cost you large amounts of money is not unusual. This past year I spent over $2000 dollars on a single cat in a months time, seeking the emergency care that he needed. Despite the money spent, he did not survive the ordeal. Having a pet means being committed to providing any and ALL needed care, and being financially able to meet their needs at any given time.
