At this time last year we were dealing with Cuddles and his refusal to eat. He ended up with a feeding tube. He's fine now, gained back all the weight (and then some). We still watch him closely.
A couple of months ago, Patches started getting weird about food. She went from being the cat who would eat ANYTHING to a cat that would only eat canned food. She lost a lot of weight. Within the last two weeks she started refusing to eat unless Itchy was sitting with her on the floor. Even though her teeth looked ok, we thought she just needed a dental. Itchy got her scheduled.
Today we found out that Patches has fantastic teeth. But she also has a crappy liver. Her blood work showed elevated liver values. Rads showed some fatty tissue that looked like tumors. Ultrasound confirmed that it was just fat, there were no other abnormalities.
More tests are being sent out and she'll start meds today.
