elderly calico has eating disorder

[Catty1]

Cats are usually good at hiding pain, but with her turning on your spouse and you, it sounds like she is really uncomfortable.

Good luck at the vet's. It could be a blockage or something similar.

I hope you and your vet can find a nutritious food that she likes - often, when a cat likes to eat strange things, something is missing in their diet.

Prayers going out to your sweetheart kitty.

I hope your vet will find out what's wrong!

I agree with Catty1, eating weird things may either mean she's missing something in her diet, or she tries to get rid of something, especially since she's also vomiting.

And yes, they are good in hiding their discomforts and pain, she may not feel well for a while, or be in pain, and that's why she's acting aggressive towards you.

Good luck for the vet visit!
