Looks like overspray from roundup.

Thanks for the advice about posting pics. We don’t use any roundup at all. Only watering and Microlife Maximum Bloom applied every 2 weeks at the concentration on the bottle. Could the cat urine and feces cause a problem?

Definitely looks like herbicide damage. If so, you might as well pull them. Even if they recover, your yield will be significantly less.

ETA: I only looked at the pics the other poster put up for you, but that is definitely not drift from herbicide spray for 2 reasons: 1) you say you don't use it (and why would you on a raised bed of tomatoes) and 2) the leaves aren't necrotic and burned like damage from herbicide. They (the leaves) don't react and draw up so severely as is typical from herbicide drift.
Assuming you've done a careful inspection for signs of an insect infestation of the plant, I think you have a problem starting from the ground level to the roots. Possibly root rot from over watering in a raised bed is another possibility.
