Until 14 days ago our healthy bouncy (when awake) 19 year old female cat ate 3 to 4 times a day. She was fussy but enjoyed her food.

We noticed her eating less and took her to the vet. He diagnosed that some of her teeth were rotten and needed extraction. This was done on wednesday of this week. Since then she has not eaten a bite of food nor is she prepared to lick any gravy. We have tried lots of varieties of cat food. Chicken broth we are desprate. The vet has tried a shot of valium (to relax her and simulate her appetite) also vitamin B. She just moves her head away.

She is drinking her normal amount of water but will have nothing to do with food. It is almost 4 days.
ANY HELP PLEASE
