My cat is sick, won't eat, and is vomiting. Is it an emergency?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Male | 3.74 lbs

Good Afternoon, sir/mam. I bathed my cat three days ago. I didn't realize he had flu that day. Now, he is losing his apetite. He doesn't want to eat his food. I feed him through syringe. But he threw it up. I am confused. I don't know what I gotta do anymore. I can't go anywhere because my country is in lockdown. Please help:(

Mowgly sounds very sick, and it's quite serious he won't eat and is vomiting. Vets are considered an essential service during this time, and you can go out for essential services. You need to take him into a vet immediately.
