Keep us informed after she goes to the vet. Age 16 is an old age for a cat, but I have had some longer than that without much problem. Just give her whatever she really loves to eat to tempt her. Often, once they do start eating again, they are fine. We all have times when we just don't feel good.....let's hope that's all it is.

Sending love to your sweetie.
