What are the symptoms of a cat cold?
The symptoms of a cat are similar to those of a human cold and include nasal congestion, coughing, sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, fever (up to 40°), lack of energy, and loss of appetite. When it is found that the cat has mild cold symptoms, it can be observed for 3 to 5 days. If the symptoms worsen during this period, or there are symptoms such as lack of water, skipping meals, and difficulty breathing, you need to seek medical advice immediately.
Can a cat cold go away on its own?
Under normal circumstances, a cat’s cold lasts from 7 to 21 days, but if you have a mild cold, your cat can recover without medication. But a cat’s ability to resist and heal varies depending on the type of cold. If it’s just a common cold, cats may recover on their own if they have enough resistance. However, if the disease affects the cat’s normal diet or normal life, it is necessary to go to the hospital, especially if the kitten’s resistance is low, and there may be other more serious symptoms that require intervention, such as antibacterial, antiviral or infusion mist chemical treatment.
In addition, if the cat has a viral cold, the possibility of self-healing is very small, and it is necessary to take medicine or see a doctor in time.
When the cat catches a cold, pay more attention:
1. When the cat catches a cold , not only to take medicine in time, but also to take a series of other protective measures. In winter, the temperature is low, especially at night, it can be very cold. We need to put the cat in a warm room, dress the cat in warm clothes, and keep the litter warm enough. Prevents aggravation of lack of warmth and cold.
2. While taking care of sick cats, it is also necessary to drink a lot of water and supplement nutrition in time to improve the cat’s resistance and physical fitness, and help the cat to recover quickly.
