If the cat does not eat, not eat �‚�‚�‚ is always an alarming symptom for any owner of Thai cats. For veterinary food refusal is a sign that the animal is seriously ill.

cat does not eat

But sometimes perfectly healthy cats just lose your appetite.

 

The reasons for this may be a few.

 

Poor nutrition.

cat does not eat

Perhaps you do not doglyadeli and gave your pet food or stale food of poor quality. Cat prefers to stay hungry, than to suffer.

 

Contrary to the expectations of your cat is not hungry. Cats inherent ability to precisely control the amount of food they eat. Complete cats are much less likely than obese dogs or people. And if a cat is brought to overeat a little, she would probably leave another bowl of food untouched.

 

Soon to be in heat! Too many cats to eat less heat.

 

Births. Cats do not eat before delivery and 12 hours after.

 

The change of weather. If suddenly begins warming or increased humidity (or both), cats can immediately restrict food intake.

 

new detergent. Maybe your cat does not like your new detergent that you wash your cat's bowl.

 

Move bowls. If you move the cat's bowl at a new location, it also may not like the cat to the point that it will refuse to eat.

 

Terms of nutrition. Cats do not like is the bright light, strong noise and heavy traffic. They prefer to eat in a quiet, cozy corner of the twilight away from home hassles. So no surprise that the cat refuses to eat at a time when the house is full of unfamiliar people.

 

Another source of food. Maybe your cat is fed by neighbors or in the basement of your house mice appeared.

 

"The mechanism of the diversity of food." This phenomenon was first detected in birds feeding on seeds. From time to time the birds move from one type of seed to others, despite their equally nutritious. If they give the same food, they will eat it without any whims and harm to health. Unchanging menu will not hurt them. However, if you give them a choice, then they will be subject to sudden changes in preferences, even if the different seeds are identical. In nature, the purpose of such a mechanism - to prevent complete dependence on a particular type of bird feed. If this kind of food will disappear, it will not hurt birds. In wild cats, this mechanism also prevents them entirely dependent on this type of production. At home, this is manifested Murok mechanism that from time to time the old tried and tested menu suddenly becomes unattractive. Animals should be at least a short-lived change of course.

 

It should be noted one more subtlety in the diet of cats, which may seem contradictory. If a cat always give the same (but in a full sense of the nutrient) food - the same canned goods, for example - the animal eventually will refuse to accept any other food, no matter how delicious it was. If another cat to provide a more varied menu, then it is, paradoxically, may from time to time to give up some of the old favorite dish. At first glance, this is illogical. The explanation lies in the fact that feeding animals with the same product over the long term "mechanism of the diversity of food" is suppressed and eventually stops working altogether. The so-called neophobia - "the fear of new things." Strange taste and smell are a threat - an unfamiliar food is rejected. These cats are a real problem if disturbed them firmly fixed daily menu - say, in case of death of an elderly owner. At the same cats who are given a variety of foods, said the mechanism for life operates at full capacity, and the animal becomes more demanding and picky eating habits. In other words, cats are deprived of their choice, do not wish to diversity, and those who have a varied diet require more and more.

 additional symptoms: vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, fever, lethargy, drowsiness, stiffness, discharge from eyes, nose, ears, sores in the mouth, pale mucous membranes, etc.  .  Need to seek emergency medical attention.

 

If a cat wants to eat, take food into your mouth and then spits out is a sure sign �‚�‚�‚  . You should contact your veterinarian.

 

If your cat is healthy, playful, no above symptoms are not observed, the cat does not want to eat, do not worry. No need to force feed the cat. Try to vary its diet, feeding her favorite snacks.
