Weight loss
Well, dropping a couple of pounds shouldn’t be worrying…FOR HUMANS. If your cat suddenly starts losing weight, then it might lead to a serious health issue. You should hurry and have them screened for various issues, from dental health problems to internal disease and various other things that might have caused this problem in the first place.
Also, make sure you monitor their food and water intake, as it might show other symptoms as well (that I’ve already mentioned above). Sometimes, constantly checking their litter box usage might indicate something else, too.
Bottom line
If you’re a pet parent, then you’re probably fully aware of how important it is to pay attention to these things. Any kind of behavioral or appearance change might show something, so don’t hesitate to follow your gut and schedule an appointment with your vet.
Sometimes, even the most subtle and unimportant signs of illness in cats are the ones that manage to escape our attention when, in fact, they show a serious problem. When it comes to this, there’s no such thing as being too cautious. If you feel that your cat needs a checkup, contact your vet.
