Our 1 1/2 year old 100% indoor kitty was being taken care of for us while we were away on vacation.She got out and was missing for 17 days.We found her under a shed only 2 houses from where she got out.Based on her condition ,it seems she spent most of the 17 days under the shed.She was clean and lost some weight but she didnt look like she had been gone long.No cuts or scratches.We took her directly to a vet.Vet did a general physical.Checked lymph glands,stomach,eyes,gums,etc.No fleas,just 2 ticks and not deer ticks.Vet was surprised she looked so good.Vet wanted to see her in 6 weeks for some tests.My concern is her appetite.she was a big eater .She has eaten very little in the 4 days she is home.She is drinking water but seems very tired and not very hungry.I jammed a little baby food on her tongue to make sure she ate something.Does this sound normal???? Any qualified help would be appreciated.Charlie
