Cat coughs like vomiting
There are three possible reasons for a cat to cough and retch: 1) The cat's owner feeds it raw or indigestible food, causing indigestion and vomiting; 2) The cat's food is too dry and lacks moisture, leading to coughing. Giving the cat appropriate water can help; 3) There may be some hairballs in the cat's stomach and intestines, causing abdominal discomfort and vomiting. The owner is advised to feed the cat catnip and hair removal gel to alleviate symptoms.
What could be the reason for a cat's coughing and retching?
Cats may cough and retch for the following reasons: 1) The cat's usual diet contains too little moisture, causing dehydration and leading to coughing and retching. In this case, the owner should adjust the cat's diet and encourage it to drink more water. 2) Cats with gastrointestinal diseases or hairballs in their bodies may exhibit coughing and retching. The owner should take the cat to the vet for examination and treatment.
Symptoms of poor cat digestion
Indigestion in cats may manifest as vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and other gastrointestinal problems. Cats with poor digestion can be fed some soft food, such as soaking cat food before feeding or giving them yogurt, which promotes intestinal peristalsis. The diet should be light, with more emphasis on vegetables and fruits. Keep the cat warm to prevent it from catching a cold, as cats with poor digestion are prone to catching colds.
What to do if your cat has poor digestion
Poor cat digestion is usually related to their diet. The main treatment for poor cat digestion is dietary regulation and conditioning. 1) First, control the cat's food intake and adopt a small-meals approach. This reduces the cat's gastrointestinal burden and increases nutrient digestion and absorption. 2) Improving the cat's diet structure is also crucial. It is best to choose specially formulated cat food that is easy to digest and high in nutrition, and reduce other snacks.
