my cat seems to have lost his appetite,,he is only 2.could it be worms ?Also can fleas do this?

Answer 1

Put a bell on it's collar it's probably been out killing and eating all the local wildlife and has no appetite left , the bell will prevent it from being a successful hunter and it will then eat it's cat food
hope this helps

Answer 2

Fleas CAN give your cat a tape worm, but worms WILL NOT make your cat stop eating.
Make sure kitty is getting plenty of fluids so he stays hydrated and take him to the Vet ASAP.
There are many reasons why he may have stopped eating.
It could be anything from a bad tooth to a blockage in his intestines.
Only a Vet will be able to tell you for sure.

Good luck, I hope it turns out to be something simple and kitty is back to good health in no time.

Answer 3

Definitely not worms they make a kitty eat more. 2 being the age were cats start becoming more adult in their nature. Hence not swinging from the curtains. He might not need the calorie intake anymore but if it persists or worsens go to the vet.Just to be safe

Answer 4

It could be the case he's getting his food elsewhere, but if he's lost weight or is an inside cat, I'd take him to the Vet. I had a cat that had Feline Lukemia. They get verry sluggish & don't eat much. Hopefully this isn't the case, but while there, I'd ask about the vaccine for it.

Hope it turns out to be nothing!

Answer 5

There could be a tone of reasons. You need to take the kitty to the vet asap., lack of appetite is never a good thing.

Answer 6

talk to the vet

Answer 7

Call the vet. They might want you to bring kitty in.

Answer 8

maybe it is the worms.....better let those worms out of your cat's body......it is not also fleas.......maybe give your cat a vaccine....
