Thread: Fred has stopped playing and eating as much - should I worry?

Our new kitten arrived 5 days ago. He is 17 weeks old and a little underweight. He seemed to settle in really well and quickly, playing all the time, eating & drinking lots. However, yesterday he seemed to sleep most of the day and all of last night. He is much less interested in play now and is eating a lot less.

Has he just worn himself out with all the excitement of the new home? Or should we take him to the vet? I don't want to stress him out with an unnecessary trip to the vets, but I am worried.

Please help!
