Kirsten, my Katie girl was the same. I noticed that she was starting to lose weight and watched her eating habits. She was hardly eating her dry food and it was due to her inflammed gums. That's why she was going around crying more than usual, because she was hungry. Once I started giving her wet food, she settled down. When I brought her to my vet, he said no wonder she wasn't eating as it hurt her to eat the dry food and her gums were just like Peggy's. She perked up even more after a few days of being on anti-inflammatories and antibiotics.

I don't know how the heck the vet would consider waiting a week without eating before worrying. That's ridiculous.

Please keep us posted on the sweet girl.
