Not true about cats. Cats can't go very long without food - they're not like dogs. Get worried if it's more than a couple of days. Their organs will begin to be damaged, starting with the liver. This happened to my Mille a couple years ago.
The trick is making sure you know they're not eating. Often, they'll eat when you can't see them. Try some wet food, canned tuna, etc. If that doesn't work, try to get that Science Diet - Prescription Diet a/d Canine/Feline Critical Care. The stuff is specifically aimed at cats that don't want to eat (among other things).

My dad's cat eats wet food, so I took hers, put my finger in it and Fat Cat licked it off my finger. I put the can down in front of her, but she sniffed and then turned her head.
I'll try getting some tuna today. If nothing helps by tomorrow, then I'm calling the vet in the morning. She basically hasn't eaten since Sunday night.
