Sarah, As you know cats are (in general) notorious for being much more
attached to their surroundings than dogs tend to be, so I wonder if this is
a prolonged reaction to that change. Even though 9 yrs isn't very old for a
cat, it might be a sufficiently-advanced age to be making the change even
harder for her. Unless the symptoms turn out to be purely coincidental with
the timing of the move, at this point they suggest the possibility of
depression and/or cognitive brain dysfunction (though it would be early to
be developing feline "Alzheimer's", it's not impossible - I know a cat same
age who has it). I'm not usually one to rush to try prescription meds but
in this case it seems it could be worth asking the vet about trying
something. Remy sends PawLeeAnna best wishes,

My cavaliers have just heard their adorable cat cousin PawLee Anna is not
well. Grandparents to the cavaliers have retired into an apartment. We
thought that PawleeAnna was on strike to let her people know moving
from her favorite hunting spot was unfair. But three weeks later she is
still not wanting to be held and has started missing aim to her litter box
and not eating much if anything.
Does anyone have any ideas.?? PawLeeAnna is 9. She is on her way to the
vets back in Wisconsin this morning while we send her cavalier get wells
from California.
