Cat Eating Problem.

[SlowlySinking]

No I'm not eating them, sorry, and it's not the usual too many or nasty cat problems. My 13 year old fixed female cat suddenly developed a eating problem, normally a half can of wet food and some dry food was enough, but now she eats two cans a day, plus dry food and looks for more. She's not fat, in fact she's slim and trim. Any idea what is happening? Thanks for any ideas,,

When is the last time you had her wormed?

Ss,

Worms are the first indication.

However, if your cat is old, you cannot rule out cancer. My last cat was 20 years old when diagnosed with a huge tumor on the liver. The tumor was taking all the nutrition.

We chose not to operate, since the cat was not in any pain. He lived another year.

Thanks to bjcsc, djohns19, Bob_VT, and Ron G for the help and humor. Looks like it's time to de-worm the cat and see what happens.

If all else helps there's always a drop off at the local take out restaurant, I can see it on the menu,
