Anorexia is a general loss of appetite or a loss of interest in food. To some people, when they hear the word “anorexia,” the eating disorder “anorexia nervosa” comes to their mind, which is a completely different condition from anorexia.
Anorexia nervosa doesn’t cause a loss of appetite. Pets suffering from anorexia nervosa avoid food. At the same time, pets suffering from anorexia (loss of appetite) unintentionally lose interest in food. Loss of appetite is often caused by an underlying medical condition.
