Answer
Taman,

Loss of appetite is a very serious sign in cats. Your kitty is sick and needs to see a vet as soon as possible or his illness could get out of control to the point that it can't be treated. Do not ignore this!!! It is urgent that he see a vet as he could be very sick...If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me again.
