My cat doesn't want to eat and keeps being sick, but it seemed to only
be saliva until tonight, when it looked like there was some fur in it.
She's lost a lot of weight as well...we moved her food outside
recently due to our toddler trying to eat it...could it be a
territorial thing (there are also two new cats who have just moved in
next door, maybe they've had a go at their food).

Any ideas

Many thanks

Have you seen a vet?? This could be serious or it could be furballs or it
could be something that is getting way serious. Go to a vet.

She needs to be seen by the vet. It is not a territorial thing, but a
medical one.

I suggest you have your cat seen by the vet and in the mean time, bring her
food back inside and have a little chat with the toddler. Now's a good time
to teach the meaning of the word "no" :c)

Hope all turns out well for your cat!

Could be simply a huge case of hairballs, or could be an illness, or a combo
of the two. She needs a vet appt., especially considering that she's lost
weight.

This is NOT furballs, or "territory".
Get the cat to a vet NOW.
NEVER wait till they have lost a "lot" of weight!
