Many cat owners have been influenced by old people raising children and think that fat cats are good. So I feed the cat every day when I have free time, and I always hope that the cat will eat more. As a result, the cat is fat and has a bulging belly.

In addition to being fat, which causes cats to have bulging bellies, what other reasons cause cats to have bulging bellies? ​​​​​​

1. Eat too much. It is recommended to feed the baby regularly and quantitatively every day.

2. The cat is pregnant.

3. Cat liver ascites, cat abdominal distension. Gently pat the cat's belly to see if there is water movement.

The above three items are basically emergencies and are very easy to identify. So what if the cat has a bulging belly habitually for a long time? Let’s talk about the reason:

4. Cats have poor gastrointestinal problems and are often constipated. If the cat poops once every few days, it is difficult to poop, the poop is ball-shaped, and the cat’s belly feels hard when touched with your hands, then the cat has symptoms of constipation.

Recommendation: Do not give high-salt and fatty foods to cats. Pay more attention to the cat's diet and drinking water. Try to give it wet food and drink plenty of water.

5. Cat indigestion. If a cat doesn't like to eat food, his mental state will also be bad. He even retched without eating much. In this case, the cat’s bulging belly is caused by the cat’s indigestion. Suggestion: Feed your cat some probiotics.

6. Cats have parasites in their bodies. If the cat eats normally, he will eat a lot, but he will be thinner. Even cats often have loose stools or have watery poop. That means there are parasites in the cat’s body.

Recommendation: Regularly deworm the cat internally and externally. Normally, cats should be dewormed every 3 months.

It is quite abnormal for a cat to have a bulging belly. Any abnormality must be accompanied by evil spirits. Many abnormalities are signs of disease, so we need to pay attention to it.
