Anorexia is one of the most common presenting signs in unwell cats. Assessment of patients should be aimed at understanding the cause of poor appetite so that this can be addressed directly as well as providing interim nutritional support. In the absence of a diagnosis, ‘fixable’ causes of poor appetite such as pain, nausea, electrolyte disturbances and dehydration should be treated before an appetite stimulant is considered. Appetite stimulants will be discussed as well as a range of interventions to provide nutritional support in the hospital and at home.
