How to Understand That a Cat Has Swallowed an Inedible Object: Information That Will Save Your Pet's Life
In any apartment there are many completely inedible things that a cat, nevertheless, would not mind trying to taste.
Sometimes such unhealthy interest becomes the reason for the animal to be hospitalized.
If you truly love your pet, you should familiarize yourself in advance with the signs that will help you recognize that your cat has swallowed something wrong.
Symptoms of foreign body ingestion include vomiting immediately after eating food or vomiting multiple times throughout the day regardless of feeding.
Another telling sign is the absence of stool for 1-2 days.
However, you may not always notice the latter if the object entered the cat’s stomach relatively recently.
Finally, there is reason to sound the alarm when you notice that your pet has become unusually lethargic and refuses to eat at all.
In any of these cases, you need to visit a veterinary clinic as soon as possible. If you contact the vet in a timely manner, there is a chance to get by with "little bloodshed": not an abdominal operation, but a gastroscopy.
