Symptoms of Infertility in Female Cats

The main symptoms of infertility in female cats are characterized by multiple estrus and breeding cycles after the cat's body has reached full maturity, but nevertheless, they are unable to become pregnant. After discovering the infertility of a female cat, it is necessary to conduct multiple examinations to determine if there is a problem with the cat, and then treat the infertility based on its cause.

The causes of infertility in female cats include congenital developmental abnormalities of the reproductive system. When the cat's body has fully developed, the reproductive system may not have developed completely or may be missing certain parts, including genital tract malformations. These developmental abnormalities can lead to infertility in female cats. Although there is a certain probability that such cats can develop perfectly through hormone stimulation, it is still not suitable for them to be used as breeding cats even if the reproductive system develops successfully.

In addition to reproductive system development problems, inadequate nutrition can also cause infertility in female cats. Generally, infertility caused by this reason is reversible. As long as the lack of nutrients is supplemented, the cat's body will also recover, provided that the lack of nutrients does not cause problems with the reproductive system itself.

In addition to the above two causes, older age of the female cat, male cat issues, errors in artificial insemination techniques, as well as stress from environmental changes, excessive obesity, and other factors can also cause a certain probability of infertility in female cats. After discovering the infertility of a female cat, it is necessary to conduct multiple examinations to determine if there is a problem with the cat and then treat the infertility based on its cause.
