Blossom is so beautiful. When I first got roscoe he wouldnt eat for like 8 days. I kept calling and they just kept saying hes trying to adapt to his new environment, or that I just need to put out the smelliest can of catfood. Well none of that worked, so I started putting him in the bathroom, and run a hot bath to make steam. He was getting worse. I took him to the vet and got him some medicine, and water therapy for dehydration. I had to self feed him with a syringe. And crush pills up and feed him that. He got better and I was so relieved and excited. I really thought he wouldnt come out of it. Now here it is, months and months and months.. but not years, later and he wont eat again. But he doesnt have the same symptoms, hes not sneezing or coughing or drooling. His female cat friend meeka went bye bye, but this didnt start until about a month and a half after she'd been gone. He acts like hes being a picky eatter cause he will only eat tuna. I know its not good for cats, or thats what I hear. But it has to be better than nothing at all. Anyways, whats wierd is... like your cat too, he is now trying to lick plastic things. My trashbags, my grociery bags, even my daughters plastic toys. I wonder if that means something. I know in the medical profession they ask humans if they've ever get a craving for dirt and etc, as it is a clue to anemia and other problems. Good thoughts sent your way! Hope your little one is doing great!
