Lots of things can make a cat lose interest in food: infection,constipation, CRF, pancreatitis, a bad tooth, cancer, or even stress. Cats can’t fast because they don’t use body fat well. It can clog the liver causing acute failure, called Hepatic Lipidosis or Fatty Liver. Food is the only prevention and cure. [more]

Nutrition can provide strength to fight, buy time to work on a full diagnosis/treatment plan, make kitty more comfortable, and improve quality of life.
