  There are many external factors leading to a cat becoming frightened, such as being chased by people, fighting with other animals, lightning and thunder, or suddenly moving to a new environment. When these factors stimulate a cat, it often results in the cat not eating for several days, ignoring its owner, hiding in a deserted corner and not coming out no matter how it is called, and even occasionally emitting frightening cries. When our cat shows similar symptoms, we should be on alert. First, we should check if the cat has any injuries, and if so, treat them immediately. If not, and it is simply scared, do not catch it at this time. Just place its food where it can reach, then leave. If you are worried, you can move farther away to observe. When the cat thinks it is safe outside, it may come out to eat a little. Besides that, you can also find some of its favorite toys to attract its attention. Anyway, just keep one thing in mind: do not get too close to it.

  As long as we see the cat begin to eat, basically there is no major problem. But if all the above methods have been tried without effect, it is recommended to take the cat to the hospital to see a doctor. (Source:PetsZone)
