My beautiful cat is about 13 or 14 years old (she was rescued 11 years ago). She's always been quite little and thin but she's lost a lot of weight recently, but is hungry all the time.
I took her to the vet for her boosters about a month ago and mentioned the weight loss. The vet said I should start feeding her on demand and see if she gains any weight.
I've been trying to do this but obviously when I'm at work I can't feed her. I leave biscuits out - but I don't know which cat is eating them as I've got two. I'm at home today and I've fed her two sachets of wet food so far. She at one and a half but she's currently scrounging around the kitchen licking the bottom of bowls etc. She begs all the time, like a dog.
She is really skinny. Her spine is very prominent. She looks old.
I have an appointment with the vet tomorrow and I'm wondering what to expect. Is it likely that she's really poorly? Or maybe something that's easily treated? I just want to be prepared.
Thanks
