Just Not Eating

So it's not her chompers, there's still no sign of any blockages or UTIs and the vet can only surmise that she has some sort of pain somewhere that's putting her off food. I think it might be joint pain because she has a little clicky ankle. I did mention this and she's now on Metacam with teatime to see if pain relief will prompt her appetite back into gear.

I also bought some curly kale to tempt her with cos that's her favourite...
 
Is she only having the pain relief once a day? You may want to split the dose in 2, what dose is she on? Is it dog Metacam?
 
Cat Metacam and it's 0.6ml once a day with food so I'll syringe feed her a bit, give her the dose and then syringe a bit more to take the taste away for her.
 
I don't know, I know Lipsy Lu didn't like it. My sister's babies LOVE it.
