    Im really worried about him. He's a one year old Bengal cat, usually super active and crazy. Always eats a lot and is always begging for food, but now his food bowl has been full since Saturday. I changed his dry food today to see if there was something wrong with it, but he still hasnt had any.

    We just served him wet food and he went crazy like he always does, super loud meows, took one bite and sat in front of it, then left it all there and went back upstairs. He has spent most of the day alone upstairs.

    He has also thrown up on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Only once everyday.

    Do you have any advice? Should I just take him to the vet? Im scared!

    Take your cat to the vet. A couple years ago my mother got a cat that had feline leukemia. Better to be safe.

    I'm sorry to hear that Aura. I hope he's alright. It may not be anything serious, but good to be double check. Let us know what you find out ok?

    Good luck. I'm a cat person so I can imagine how worried you are.

    Yeah, I know what it is. He'll probably love it or at least I hope he does.

    Thanks. It's scary to see he's not eating, specially since he loves food and will even steal our food.

    Hopefully, it's nothing to worry about. I'm sure he'll be stealing your food again before you know it.

    animals get sick and go through weird spells just like people, so odds are it's nothing to worry about. i'd definitely take it to the vet just to be safe though.

    Smart man. They are all rescues and I wouldn't trade them for anything, but it is a bit much.

    I feel relieved to be keeping mine after all. My daughter seems to be learning to deal with him well today. *cross fingers*. I was so sad yesterday at the thought of getting rid of him. :(

    your cats look so cute, btw.... especially that big fluffy fat one. lol! I LOVE BIG FLUFFY KITTIES. :D

    My cats do that when they have a furball....so they eat some grass, hack a few times and go back to killing birds, moles, frogs and chowing down on their cat food.

    i know dogs and cats are different
    but my dog was exactly like that.
    always scarfing down her food like
    it was nothing and always wanting more.
    but at the age of four, she stopped eating
    and wasn't hyper. she would just stare at you
    if you went to go throw the ball.
    we took her to the vet, and they
    said she had leukemia. i'd suggest
    taking your cat to the vet ASAP
