Hello, my black cat (12F) has undergone a dental cleaning 9 days ago, they did not remove any teeth as the vet did not think it necessary.

She had though some root rest that the vet initially tried to remove but decided to leave it be since it didn't seem irritated and was not causing any pain. She has however a couple of stitches from the vet trying anyway.

She seemed fine and started eating pretty soon after the sedation started to wear off. She is on a gastrointestinal veterinary diet with moderate calorie (she has to lose some weight and has been losing it at a normal pace the last few months).

However at the beginning of this week she seems to have started refusing her kibble, she barely ate anything for a couple of days.

She threw up white and yellow bile and that's when I definitely figured out she was not eating enough. She would eat the feliway happy snack so I decided to try the wet food and she has been eating it now and seems eager and hungry when she sees it.

I weighed her today and she seems to have lost a lot of weight, she went from 4,8 kg (10.5 lb??)weighed at the vet office to 4.6 kg (10.14 lb) in just these 9 days. I should also point out I am weighing her on a human scale subtracting my body weight and it could be slightly wrong, first time I tried this morning she was 4.15 (9.14) and the vet thought that was higly unlikely so I tried again and got the 4.6.

I ordered a pet scale now so I can weigh her on tuesday.

Should I be concerned? She's acting normal otherwise, nothing concerning in her behaviour. I have already talked to the vet we have with our cat insurance (this is in Northern Europe) and videochatted and she seems to think Stella looked normal but that I really should get a reliable way to weigh her and compare.

It's a long weekend here so the ordinary vet will be closed until Monday. I am afraid of possible liver damage but I don't know if I'm being paranoid. She is not yellow anywhere she doesn't show signs of pain or discomfort according to the insurance vet.

Am I missing something?
