This cat has been here for a few weeks now and he will actually push my cats out of the way when I try to feed them so he can eat their food. Also this stray cat now will rush over to me when I open the door and will eat realy fast. This morning he won't eat the food I have put out. I don't know what is wrong as I can't see anything wrong. I usually call the vet when in doubt but what could I say? Also I can't catch it to go to the vet as it still doesn't let me pat him and I also don't have a car here today. The animal shelter and pound are not an option as they will put him down rather than help him. He ate last night so what could have happened in 12 hours overnight?

He may have caught food and just wasn't hungry, he is an outdoor cat after all. Check to see if he eats in the evening, anything eaten in the morning would be digested by then.

Its possible he ate somewhere else. Did you change to a different type of food. I wouldn't worry as cats can go quite sometime without food and sometimes its self imposed. Give him a couple of days before you start to worry.

He may have gotten food somewhere else it happens sometimes if it persists then its a stray just let it go maybe it will find a nice home

Could just be another neighbor has fed them? Or could it be that perhaps the kitty caught a nice tasty mouse or bird? I wouldn't worry too much...it's probably just an "off" day....see what happens again tomorrow...

he is probably fine. cats are natural hunters, so im sure he caught something to eat. i wouldnt worry about it, unless he continues to not eat.

Maybe he caught something or someone else fed him.
