It is essential to keep cats eating for many reasons, including improvement in their overall quality of life. Cats have unique energy requirements that need to be met to avoid medical derangements, including muscle mass loss and hepatic lipidosis. There are multiple factors responsible for the normal appetite in cats: social, environmental, hormonal, and chemical factors, along with food composition, palatability, and the cat’s own microbiome. What you feed matters—but so does how you feed it. Offering a variety of foods according to each cat’s preference is essential. Moistening diets, serving at room or body temperature, and adding flavor enhancers can all help, but so can providing privacy (or company!), familiar scents, and places to hide. Many cats will not drink enough on their own. Dehydration can further compound the problem and exacerbate decreased food and water intake. Adding a nutrient-enriched water supplement like Purina Pro Plan’s Veterinary Supplement Hydra Care has been shown to increase total liquid intake in healthy cats. Nausea can be a common cause of inappetence in cats and requires management. The use of antiemetics and appetite enhancers may be helpful in patients that are not critically ill. Medications to stimulate appetite, such as mirtazapine, cyproheptadine, and capromorelin, have proven benefit but should never replace considerations for each cat’s social, environmental, and food preferences.
