Reduced or absent eating in cats can signal serious illness.

Reduced or absent eating in cats can signal serious illness. A veterinarian investigates the cause and decides whether nutritional support is needed; appetite changes should not simply be ignored.

Editorial overview based on the linked VCA resource; this is not the complete original handout. Prepared 2026-10-03; not veterinarian-reviewed. Diagnosis and treatment, including medication choice and dose, require veterinary guidance.
