Thus, I think consulting with your vet via a checkup may not be a bad idea.
Very good advice...

My cat is 17 years old and had renal and pancreas problem .. Treated her for near 2 years, and now she seems quite OK: goes outside, jumps fences, tries to catch squirrels, ....

But, once in a while, she loses appetite : I have pills I giver her ( from the vet ) and 30 minutes or less later she is starving ....

Pills are : cyproheptadine ( 4 mg - I give a half - small cat )

But consult a vet, your cat is young....
