You have to be very careful with cats. They can get liver damage after just a few days of not eating. You really need to talk to your vet about this. It's nothing to fool with (although I'm sure you are taking this seriously).

At first try a few basic things, like a little soft food. Don't plop a lot in a bowl, but try to feed your cat by hand a little at a time. Try to feed it a couple times an hour, just a little bit. If you can get it to even nibble at the food, it might help. Stroke your cat and talk gently to it while offering it food. Make if feel calm.

Don't serve it cold food. Warm it up a bit - not hot, but just warm. Warm food has a stronger smell and might encourage it to eat.

Try warming a little low salt chicken broth. Plain cooked chicken is fantastic as this usually helps to settle a cat's stomach.

Make sure you have plenty of fresh water available. If it isn't even taking in water, go to the vets immediately.

Above all, do not let it go on for more than 2 days. Get to the vets.
