High temperatures are dangerous not only for humans: cats also have a very high risk of dying from this cause.
Therefore, it is important to know what signs indicate this condition.
What is important for the owner to pay attention to?
Experts note that the first thing that catches the eye is the general decline in the pet's strength: the cat may simply lie in one place, look "lost", lethargic and not interested in anything.
The animal shows a loss of interest in food. In some cases, thirst is observed at high temperatures, and in other cases, the cat refuses water.
In some cases, vomiting can be observed with high temperature.
The cat begins to breathe very quickly, and changes in heart rate can also be noted. An important feature of a high temperature in a cat is the ears: they become hot.
At high temperatures (40 degrees and above), the smell of breath may become unpleasant. Cats may also have specific discharge from the eyes.
It is noted that the animal may become fearful.
It is worth understanding that trying to solve this problem on your own is extremely dangerous. Often, the presence of a high temperature indicates a serious disorder in the body that requires the help of a doctor.
