How to Fix a Cat’s Low Appetite
A cat eats less during heat, when bored of the same food, when picky, in hot weather, or with mild indigestion. Bring appetite back with scheduled measured meals, short fasting, a gradual switch to tastier food (warmed to release aroma), a little probiotic, and cooling the room in summer.
My cat vomited a lot of clear, sticky, foamy fluid and has low appetite lately
