Answer #1

He may have an abcessed tooth…when an animal cannot chew it’s food properly, it cannot get the nutrician it needs…as time passes, basically it starves to death. A young cat might be able to pull this off for a while, but as with old people, old cats go down hill fast.

I got an idea…why not take him to the Vet. Wouldn’t it be great if all he needed was to get a tooth pulled?

Older cats also suffer from kidney failure (but since you said he’s still eating, I didn’t bring that up…)

Answer #2

Hmmm. Take him to the vet… In case he does pass away, Or for when he does, If I were you I would start looking at new kittens. Im NOT saying he’s going to die NOW, But im just saying that MAYBE you should start looking at new kittens. -Dogluver.

Answer #3

Awww poor thing. I agree with satanheadbangstometal ^ Hes old, and I’m sorry but it sounds like his time is nearly up. Its great hes made it this long! I suggest you just try your best to make his last year or so nice for him.

Answer #4

He’s an old man. Think of an old person. So of them become unable to care for themselves and get put in a nursing home.
