If they do not eat for more than 48 hours, they are at risk of getting
fatty liver disease (hepatic lipidosis) but do not necessarily get it. If they
get it, they do not want to eat because they are nauseous from their liver
shutting down, and they often turn yellow. If she is eating, I doubt she has
it. She can be thin from not getting enough food over a long period of
time, without ever going with no food at all for a significant period, which is
what causes fatty liver. I would just keep doing what you are doing. If
you know how to give subcutanous fluids you might want to do that, but it can be
sort of scary to do on really thin cats.
