I hope you will get her to a vet ASAP, she sounds very sick. Any time a cats behavior changes like this, it is usually an indicator that they aren’t feeling well and something is wrong. Since they can’t talk to us, this is their only way of letting us know. It could be any number of things, but you won’t know without a proper diagnosis by a vet. Please don’t wait, and get her into a vet as soon as you can. Whatever it is, at least you will catch it early on and it can most likely be treated. I’ve had several cats in my lifetime, and this raises a big red flag to me by your cats behavior that she is sick. Good luck, and I hope that she will be okay.

i think what you should do is go to your local closer pet smart .in pet smart there is band field a veterinarian.if there is no band field go to your closest veterinarian and tell them to check out your cat and see if she has any type of cancer or sickness or depression.if depression is the problem try playing with it and pay lots of attention to her.if she has a sickness or a type of cancer ask for a medication that can help.

If you haven’t already taken her or called a vet, do so asap. She may have a bowel obstruction and will need special meds or surgery. Be less concerned about her lack of food and water consumption and more about getting her the appropriate medial care.

feed her some “sugar” and try to really open her mouth to get some sugar inside her mouth. sugar will initiate apetite and thirst. if that doesnt work bring her to the vet.

If her behavior keeps up like that another day, call the vet.

Try playing with her if she will. Definitely show her lots of love & affection. That’s probably what she’s craving right now.

Good luck and I hope all goes well.
