A cat not eating is usually physiological or pathological anorexia. Physiological happens in teething, heat, pregnancy, or pickiness—try tastier food like chicken or canned food. If it refuses even favorite meat, it is likely pathological, often with vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or unsteady walking. Long refusal with other signs needs a vet check for mouth, gut, or infectious disease.
