Answer by Kate
Hi well it is not unusual for cats to pick up viruses like we do which make them go off there food for a day or two so i wouldn't worry at this stage.

Make sure she has access to fresh water and allow her to sleep, this will probably pass in a day or so. If she is still the same after three days or if she is not drinking either then you will need to get her to a vet.

Also for suture reference it is not a good idea to change a cats food type often as this can also upset their stomachs and cause diarrhea etc.

i hope she is better soon

best wishes Kate
