Thanks for the suggestions! My kitty went to the vet this morning and they did some blood work and tested her feces for worms and such. They found from the blood tests that she has pancreatitis, most likely from the high fat content in the Senior formula cat food I had been giving her.

They said all her other numbers were good from the blood work though, and gave her a shot to help clear the pancreatitis up. They are also putting her on some special food that is better for her and should help keep it from reoccurring.

I will also be bringing her back in to get her teeth cleaned as soon as possible, as they had some build up on them and were a little inflamed, which the vet said may have contributed to her not eating.

Thanks again!
