A symptom of a cat being sick

A symptom of a cat being sick

Hello, This is duz:)💙

 

​Last time, I looked into the symptoms of dogs being sick.

​Cats are also animals that rarely show when they are sick, so today we will look at the symptoms that appear when cats are sick so that guardians who raise cats can continue their healthy lives with cats.

Shall we start now?

 

Refusing to eat

​If a cat suddenly refuses food, the disease is likely to be the cause 🙀

​First, if you refuse food due to problems with your digestive system, such as gastritis, enteritis, or eating foreign substances, digestive disorders, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur.

​Next, you can refuse food even if you have problems with your mouth or teeth, as in cases of stomatitis and gums. 🦷

​If a cat does not eat food, liver function may weaken and cause serious problems, so if it has been about two days since you didn't eat, please visit the hospital and find out the cause.

 

 

 

A sleep problem

 

Cats are famous for sleeping a lot.

​Usually cats have an average of 12 to 16 hours of sleep per day 💤

​However, if it looks different during sleep, it means that cats are not feeling well.

​Most of them were cats that woke up even with small sounds, but if you continue to sleep deeply without responding to small sounds or sleep for a long time without moving your posture in one place, you may have an underlying disease, so you need to be careful.

You also need to be careful when you sleep more than usual and your appetite seems to have fallen.

 

 

 

Increased activity, weight loss

​The amount of activity in cats is closely related to thyroid hormones

​Thyroid hormones are involved in promoting metabolism, so when these thyroid hormones increase abnormally, cat activity suddenly increases 🐱

​Because of the increased exercise, the amount of intake increases, but if it leads to weight loss, it may be a problem with thyroid hormones.

As mentioned earlier, thyroid hormones are involved in metabolism, so abnormal increases can have a bad effect on various organs, so if you have the above symptoms, please visit the hospital quickly and get a diagnosis. 😰

 

 

 

Excessive grooming

Cats have bumps on their tongue, so they groom to remove dirty things from their bodies and keep them clean 😺

​If you lick only one place intensively or groom too much unlike usual, you may have health problems.

​You can get infected with parasites or germs, develop itching, or overgroom due to allergies or external stimuli, and you can continue to lick areas where you feel pain.

​Also, when I licked a certain area badly and looked at my body, if the hair in a certain area is too short or looks particularly hairless, it's because I groomed until the hair is shed 😨

In this case, make sure to visit the hospital
I hope you get an accurate diagnosis.

 

 

 

​So far, we've looked at the symptoms of cats when they're sick.

​Based on this posting, I hope you catch the cat's signal quickly and take action as soon as possible to continue your healthy life with the cat. 😊

I hope today's post helped you with your life with your pets and I'll come back with a helpful and interesting post next time 💙

 

 

 


Have a great day with the duz '◡'
