I lost Misty 12-22-15 due to illness. Vet couldn't save her. Now my new cat that I got 11 months ago isn't feeling well. Not her usual self the last couple days. Not sleeping on me like he usually does. Sleeping in the chair won't even get up to eat. He did use the litter box 1 time yesterday. He's not his happy self when I get up this morning. Quiet and won't even eat his favorite piece of cheese that he loves. But then I put his bowl of dry food by him he finally nibbled a little. I think hes sick or either a good faker. Tigger is on closeful watch.

By the way. I took him to the vet 2 weeks ago for flea treatment and very poor skin problems. Hes healed very nicely but now acting lethargic and/or ill or just my imagination that's something wrong. I just wish he would eat normal and use the litter box. Something's wrong. Prayers welcome.

Is this an Outside cat ?
I ask because if he/she is an indoor cat there's really no need for a Flea treatment of any kind.
anyway, when they do go for something like that. I Believe being lethargic is one of the side affects. But then again you did say 2 weeks ago
and I would guess that shouldn't be the case, lasting 2 weeks.

As much as I HATE the Vet, as they have you by the balls when it comes to your Pet.
I would take him back... or maybe at first Call and tell them what's happening. because maybe they can tell you these are side affects of whatever
treatment he/she just had.

How about water? Does he drink much? Not eating etc is signs of a problem for sure, however, lack of water shuts a cats internals down quickly.

Do you know what brand and length of dose of the flea treatment was given?

I, too, hate the Vet also, and can normally diagnose most common problems, however, a trip here may be in order. If anything, you may need to get a drip bag and give the kitty an IV (I keep one of hand).

hope your furbaby feels better...

Deductive reasoning says only new variable in past two weeks is flea treatment. Common for such treatment to slow a cat, but worth a revisit to vet.
