Cats are iron and rice, and not eating can cause great harm to the cat's small body. Moreover, cats have relatively fragile stomachs. If they are not careful, they will easily suffer from diarrhea. So the shovelers should pay attention. If the cat has diarrhea, they should check the cause and deal with it in time. They should not let the cat have diarrhea continue, which will harm the cat's stomach.
1. Indigestion
The digestive system of the kitten has not yet developed completely and its stomach is relatively fragile. If you eat too fast or too much, indigestion may occur, resulting in the kitten having diarrhea and not eating. In addition, if the cat food is suddenly changed, the kitten's intestines will be unadapted, which will also lead to indigestion. In this regard, the owner can feed the kitten an appropriate amount of probiotics to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, and at the same time, it can appropriately increase the kitten's exercise, which helps the cat digest food.
Note: When feeding cats, you need to control the amount of feeding each meal, and a small amount and multiple feeding is required. In addition, when changing cat food, you should mix old cat food and new cat food until it is completely replaced with new cat food, giving the kitten a process of adapting the intestines.
2. Gastroenteritis
If a kitten is diarrhea and does not eat, and is accompanied by vomiting, poor mental appetite, and increased body temperature, it may be caused by gastroenteritis. Because kittens have poor immunity and severe diarrhea will lead to dehydration and shock, it is recommended that the owner take the cat to the pet hospital for infusion treatment in time, which can quickly replenish the body's moisture to avoid shock.
3. Kittens are more likely to be infected with cat plague, especially those who have not been vaccinated. The clinical symptoms are mainly manifested as depression, lack of appetite, vomiting, fishy and bloody stools, fever, etc., which is the largest infectious disease in kittens. If the kitten has the above symptoms, it should be taken to the pet hospital for treatment in time. If you actively cooperate with infusion treatment, the cure rate can still be as high as 60%-70%.
Note: Vaccination with the cat triple vaccine is an effective way to prevent cat plague, so you must vaccinate your cat on time.
4. Kittens have poor resistance and are prone to infection with parasites. Therefore, it is generally recommended that the kitten be dewormed for the first time around 2-3 months old. If the owner has not dewormed the kitten, the kitten will be infected with in vivo parasites such as roundworms, tapeworms, coccidioids, hookworms, etc., which will also cause the kitten to have diarrhea and have poor appetite. The owner can observe the kitten's feces to see if there is any excretion of the insect body. If so, you need to consult a pet doctor in time and feed the deworming medicine according to the kitten's weight and instructions.
Note: The owner should develop the habit of deworming the cat on time and avoid giving the cat raw meat or other unclean food.
