Cats are common pets in the family and are lively and cute, but during the breeding period or estrus period, the cat's situation may be different. Some cats will not eat, so how should this situation be handled?
First, you need to understand the causes and symptoms of cats in estrus.
Cats are in estrus because female cats are affected by hormones during their menstrual period and will have a series of behavioral manifestations, such as hoarse voice, cat meowing, tail swinging, and ground-slashing reactions, as well as symptoms of loss of appetite.
For this situation, it is advisable to wait and not be too anxious.
Because cats are in estrus, loss of appetite changes in their endocrine and nervous systems, and it takes a certain amount of time to adapt and recover.
However, we can care and care from the following aspects:
1. Adjust dietary methods.
During this period, you can feed your cat more foods rich in protein and vitamins, such as meat, fish, root vegetables, etc., and feed them a few more meals, but don’t let them eat too much or too greasy food, and at the same time ensure adequate drinking of water.
2. Provide a quiet environment.
During the cat's estrus, it is very sensitive to cats, so it is necessary to provide it with a quiet and comfortable environment, where some toys can be placed, plants that help relieve the mood, etc., so that the cat can relax.
3. Appropriate exercise.
Exercise can help cats relieve anxiety and discomfort. It can provide cats with some appropriate games and exercise methods indoors or outdoors, such as chasing, catching, etc., but be careful not to exercise too intensely or too long.
4. Pay attention to your health.
During the pregnancy period, the cat's body is relatively fragile, susceptible to other viruses, and loses its resistance.
Therefore, during estrus, cats need to be provided with sufficient nutrition, disinfection work, and maintain family hygiene.
Generally speaking, it is normal for cats to not eat during estrus. They need to pay some attention and care during this period, but don’t be too nervous and anxious. Give them a quiet, warm environment and appropriate food, and pay attention to physical health and disinfection work. Only in this way can cats complete their fertility cycle in a healthy state and bring more happiness and happiness to the family.
