She eats her old food just fine, though. Maybe b/c it a comfort food since she knows it? I've been thinking about what to do w/her. She's gone from 9 lbs to 4 lbs and she's already been to the vet once. Won't be able to afford to run another $200 in tests for another month. I feel bad about her living in the bathroom, but don't want her running around the house crapping all over. Seems that she goes where ever she deems fit and in the bathroom her litter box is close by so she doesn't have an issue in there.
*Another concern is if something's wrong that requires lots of $$ then we won't be able to afford it. I'm afraid we'd have to put her to sleep

) has been having problems losing weight lately. He's always been really active, he's nine and still runs around like a kitten. I've had him since he was 5 weeks old, rescued him from some abusive people, so I'm rather attached to him. Anyways, Bailey (another boy, he's 6) is overweight, in May he weighed in at almost 19lbs, the vets decided he should be about 15 (he's a big boy). At that time they said Dinah weighed 10lbs, I still think their scales were off as he's never weighed that much. After 6 weeks I took them back for a weigh in, Bailey had lost 1/2 lb 
Dinah had lost almost 2! So they tested his thyroid which came out normal. I though he might not be getting enough food, but the vet doesn't think so, they are both eating enough to maintain a 15lb cat which means Bailey should lose and Dinah should not. So fast forward a month and Bailey is finally down a total of almost 2lbs and Dinah is down another pound. Vet can't figure out why, no masses can be felt, he's perfectly active, eats fine, fur looks great, just skinny. So, they're almost out of food again and now I'm in Wyoming so I'll be taking them to a new vet. Dinah doesn't feel like he's gained any weight, if anything he feels even more bony. So we'll see what they think, and hopefully Bailey is still losing.
Your Bailey doesn't look fattish in the profile pic. With the way his hair sticks out of the shoulders and out around his head it just looks like he has a bit of long hair to fit under there, but doesn't look chubby to me.
