You need to take him to the vet. Try calling a local rescue, the humane society or even friends to see if they can help with money.

Melinda Salmaone I would see if you can borrow from someone ,also like was already said call your local shelters they might have knowledge or your local vets. Take some time make some calls . Vets may also discount their rate or offer a credit card through them or payment plan. you really need to act fast an animal not eating is serious and the ending won’t be good. So I cant stress enough act as quickly as possible. good luck to you and you kitten.

Ashley Carlson Some places may have volunteers to come out and help transport the kitten. Or if you have a local animal control officer you can tell them you have a sick kitten who needs help. Unfortunately sometimes they may euthanize the kitten, so you need to ask what will happen to him if they pick him up. Some shelters/rescues will do whatever is in their power to save the lives on the animals who come to them while others don’t have the resources and are forced to euthanize sick animals.
I have an almost 14 yr. old female American Eskimo who hasn’t eaten much in almost a month. Blood work came back normal. She will pick at people food, will not eat “dog” food. Sleeps alot as well. Help.

Belle Chabot Probably should give him a bunch of water and normal food to get it out of his system faster. If it gets worse take him to the vet

Anonymous honestly, if this is a PUPPY, i wouldn’t wait. i’d at least call the vet first thing this morning when they open.

Dawn Ferara, DVM Call the vet or pet poison control
I have been agonizing over this for 2 days now. Last Monday I took my 14 year old cat to the vet because he had stopped eating and drinking. X-Ray showed what the vet thinks is abdominal cancer. After talking to my vet decided that surgery/chemo would not be an option for me and she prescribed steroids which may help and gave him fluids. He perked up a tad after fluids and would eat maybe a quarter to half a can of wet food a day. Since Friday though I have not been able to get him to eat anything (he did come out and lick the food yesterday but would not eat) and all he does is lay under the computer chair. He will not sleep in the bed with me which is something he has done his whole life. I plan to call the vet first thing tomorrow morning, but was wondering if anyone had any thoughts.

Michael Hamilton you might try some tuna packed in water to get your cat to eat, I know what your going thru three months ago i had to put my 19 year old down and 2 months later i had to put my other cat down. both of mine had kidney faluer it,s a hard choice. but try the tuna packed in water, and best of luck.
my puppy got hit in the head/neck area with a closing door now he has been drooling and whining at night and lathargic … He is eating fine
Has been to the vets but shows no outward sign of brain damage or an area that should be hurting
The vet says its prob a parasite and he may have nauseous from it and thats why drooling but all of this started the very night the door hit his head
I dont know what to do puppy is 10 wks old
The vomit is usually a yellowish colour but a few days ago it had black in it… She has stopped eating, but recently my mom bought canned dog food and she will eat that. She doesn’t bark anymore when we come home and doesn’t even lift her head to my parents. We did, recently get a new puppy. She is obviously jealous and I give her all the attention I can. But she seems sick, not just sad or depressed.. Please, help.

My dog is vomiting, not eating (unless we give her canned dog food) and has stopped barking or even lifting her head when we come home… Please help 🙁
My cat is 4 years old . I am a student. Cat is a female nudered domestic cat.
Im a student cannot afford to go to vet now.
she started eating from litter.. not the poop or pee, just the litter sand. I dont know why. Can you tell me a natural remedy that might help? I really cant afford a vet right now.
Thanks
My cat has dried blood at the edges of his nose. Why? He hand his sister were given to us as kittens and she does not have this. They have their first felvshot as well as one other shot, no boosters and no other shots as we became unable to afford the bills of the only vet in the area. Otherwise they are both eating and drinking well, playing and active. They are 1 and 1/2 years old. He has no other health issues we know of just this cake black stuff at the edges of his nose that looks like dried blood. What should I do? And we have no money for an expensive vet bill. We have asked about a payment plan but they will not do that for us, and they are the only vet clinic around. We do not have a car.
Unfortunately it is very hard to diagnose what could be wrong with him over the Internet with those signs. How long has this been going on? Could he have eaten anything he shouldn’t have? Will he drink tuna juice or anything? I am not sure how close you are to one of the veterinary schools but they sometimes have student clinics that are cheaper or may be able to offer you a payment plan etc
he so far hasnt eaten except for a few days, about 4 or 5 except one bite of canned food. i dont really know if he ate anything thats bad for him. he will drink water, thankfully. he seems to be losing a lot of weight. my mom said it could be a blockage would he get fat if it were a blockage?
You could also try calling local shelters or rescues to see if any of them may be able to help you. Some shelters have crisis intervention programs or low-cost clinics. Some may take him and make him better if you agree to surrender him. I know that might be hard, but it could save his life. Check out http://www.nokillnetwork.org/ for possible options in your area.
He definitely needs veterinary care. There are options such as carecredit which you can apply for online to use at local animal hospitals for as Ashley said maybe a rescue or shelter can help you.
