all of a sudden my 16 yr old cat wont eat her dry food, and wants only canned food, thinking could be her teeth but she does eat kitty snacks, and seems to urinate alot because have to clean her cat box more often. thank you robyn.

Hi at 16 year old she could be suffering from all sorts of possible illness and age related problems such as teeth problems. But the over urinating could be a sign of feline diabetes. please see this page for more on this here

To be honest with you, due to her age and this recent change in eating habit and urination your best option is to take her to see a vet as soon as possible.
