Hi There,



A cat that stops eating is in danger of developing a condition known as fatty liver disease in as little as 2 - 3 days. This is very, very serious when it does occur.



Please go out immediately and get some strained meat baby food (with no onion added) for your kitten. This should get her interested in eating, but if it doesn't work, I recommend that you take her to an ER ASAP.



You can also try things like tuna (human or feline version), chicken, and cottage cheese to try and get her to eat. At this point, anything is better than nothing. There is also the possibility of dehydration since she isn't drinking much and kittens can go downhill very rapidly.



Please keep us updated.



Regards,

PHKitkat
