Stress can have the same destructive effects on cats as it does on humans, weakening their health and leading to various diseases.
Therefore, owners should not ignore the emotional state of their pet.
What 4 signs should you pay attention to?
Do we really have a cat?
If your pet has stopped appearing in the common space with family members, then you should be wary. Cats love to spend time with those they love.
If the animal starts hiding constantly, then this indicates either stress or illness, experts note.
Unkempt appearance
People also have this symptom of stress: during a depressive state, both humans and cats can ignore basic hygiene rules and stop paying attention to their appearance.
Therefore, it is worth considering stress if you notice that your always neat cat has started to look unkempt.
Excessive attention to hygiene
As it turns out, excessive or even obsessive attention to one’s own hygiene can also indicate the presence of a nervous disorder.
Therefore, it is important to pay attention if the cat begins to actively lick itself.
Strange voice
In moments of stress, the intonation and even the sound of your pet's voice will be completely different. Therefore, even such changes are worth paying attention to.
