Runny Eyes
If your cat has runny or dirty eyes, they have some illness or disease that is causing that. It could be that another cat scratched them by their eye, or they have the human form of a cold. A healthy cat should have bright and clear eyes.
Sneezing
One of my cats keeps having sneezing fits, and they are allergic to pollen in the air and grass clippings. Some cats will sneeze if they are asthmatic or have an allergy or cold. If your cat keeps sneezing to the point of vomiting or can hardly breathe, take them to your local Vet ASAP.
Bad Hair Day
A cat’s hair will look mated and unkept when they are sick. Older cats are not agile enough to clean their rear very well, and the hair around their bottom might need a good cleaning by you. Try to brush out matted hair and bath cats that have dirty rears so they look, smell, and feel better.
Sleep All Day
If your cat is lethargic and wants to sleep constantly, they are not feeling well. If they do not perk up shortly, take them in for a complete checkup. Their diet may lack essential vitamins, minerals, and more. If your cat is tired all of the time, he may have a significant illness that is attacking his body. Take them to your Vet for a complete blood workup.
Vomiting Cat
Your cat may have eaten something wrong. Your cat may eat a poisonous plant or drink some toxic substance. Cats can vomit food if they eat it too fast. Some cats have trouble digesting their food and need special pills for that. Take your cat to your Vet if he vomits, as it is not normal unless he ate some spoiled food. He could be poisoned or have food poisoning from defective cat food.
Your Cat Starts Limping
Your cat may have been bitten in the leg by a wild animal or fallen off of something very high. Check your cat’s paw and see if you can spot a thorn or something in the pad that would cause him to limp. Your cat could have arthritis and need medicine to help alleviate his pain. Look your cat over and make sure he did not break his leg. If it broke, your cat had to get his leg set at your Vet.
Loss Of Weight Quickly
A sudden weight loss is a sign of a dangerous illness. My cat lost weight and was diagnosed with lung cancer in about six months. I had to have him put to sleep. I had another anemic cat that I had put to sleep. One of my cats had mouth, throat, and ear cancer, and I had to put him to sleep at 13.
Sudden Changes In Your Cats Behavior
Any sudden changes in how your cat acts typically cause concern and a visit to your Vet for a complete checkup and blood workup. I hope you and your cat have many blissful, healthy, and happy days ahead of you.
