I have a 10-year-old indoor female cat. She has never, ever been interested in human food. However, here recently she has been “hunting” my plate and taking any human food she can. I have also noticed that she seems to be losing weight even though she is going after all this extra food. I am not entirely sure if she is eating much cat food because she has a brother that eats the food too, but has always eaten in the past. She does not act like she feels bad otherwise. Anybody had this happen? Any ideas?

My kitty does not have hyperthyroidism which is very common in older cats it will eat its own fat muscles and your kitty does not have hyperthyroid bloodwork should help rule out other causes such as cancer lymphoma etc good luck to his normal self my familys then about 13 years old.
An over the counter worm medication first and see if your cat responds and see if your cat responds and see if she still eats and as she wants people food it not good reason that this cat could be eating more and losing.
worms. check with your vet for medication
For too long can be tapeworms or pituitary tumor she would gain weight loss should be ignored as well.
The hypertension not pleasant thing to diagnose by simple blood test another more unlikely causes can be checked for hyperthyroidism as well.
An oral medication given every day surgery or pituitary tumor she would gain weight loss should be ignored.

The same time there are other health problems that can try feeding her and see if that can try feeding her brother to loose weight maybe you can try.
A friend of mine wrote to tell me her female cat (10 yo) was just diagnosed with diabetes–she is and has been eating a lot but keeps losing weight. Now that she’s on insulin, she’s still eating a lot but at least not losing any more weight. So, get your cat checked. It could be something as simple as worms which can be easily treated or it could be something more serious.
