Our cat is nearly 16 and we have had her for 14 years. She was a rescue and had been an abused kitten so it took a long time for her to relax around people. She is keen on her own company and spends a lot of time outside.
She is the only cat I have ever had and I'm not sure how to deal with old age in cats. She is well (I took her for a vet check 4 months ago), but she has become noticeably thinner especially around her back legs. She eats OK but only one meal now (at night) and she is sleeping much more (either on next door's roof or in our back bedroom).
Will she just fade away eventually? Do I need to do anything?
