Hi Bea,

What I would do, since you have limited funds, is see if your vet will board your kitty. That way, she will be watched, and she will already be in the hospital in case she needs medical care. A boarding rate should be much lower than actually hospitalizing a cat, although if your baby should get sick, you would have to pay more.

You sound like a wonderful cat mom, and obviously only want to do the best thing for your baby. She is young, and hopefully will get over whatever this is quickly. I would get some strained meat baby foods (with no onion added) and see if this jump-starts her appetite at all.

Regards,
PHKitkat
