the results dont come back till friday but im worried as i thought she would perk up by now
the vet said it could also be thryoid problems im not asking for a medical opinion just if anyone has had same situation and did your cat start eating again?

Hi - just a quik response as about to start work!
It very much depends on the cat - some cats are very shy and just absolutely refuse to eat at all while being hospitalised- no matter what you offer!Your vet may resort to sending her home as long as she is stable and see if she will eat at home - im sure your nurses will trying her with everything they can think of and sometimes cats just find it to stressful being away from home on top of feeling rubbish.It may also be that if she has liver issues she may be feeling a bit nauseous even though she is not being sick.If you do get her home try warming her food whether its her own meat, chicken, fish.Hope this helps.x
