A pet cannot tell its owner that it is sick and needs help.

Therefore, the owner of the animal must carefully observe any changes in the cat's behavior in order to take timely measures.

One of the signs can be called that the animal has stopped eating and drinking water, and it is also necessary to take into account when a cat or a cat drinks too much water.

For example, if a cat empties a bowl of water faster than before, this may indicate kidney problems, diabetes, etc.

You also need to pay attention to the cat's appearance.

If it suddenly gets worse, for example, there are problems with the skin or fur, then you should contact a veterinarian.

Another alarming sign is when your pet has runny eyes and nose. This may indicate an infection.
