Queen cat becomes thinner and thinner after pregnancy
The queen cat becomes thinner and thinner after pregnancy, because during the pregnancy, the nutrients in her body are absorbed by the fetus, and the owner does not supplement the cat's nutrition, which leads to malnutrition and thus the cat becomes thinner and thinner. Additionally, if the owner does not regularly deworm the cat, it is also possible that the cat infects internal parasites during pregnancy, causing the nutrients to be absorbed by the parasites and the cat becomes thinner and thinner.
- Malnutrition
After a queen cat becomes pregnant, the nutrients she ingests will be provided to the fetus first. If the nutrients摄入 by the queen cat are insufficient, she will likely become thinner and thinner. Therefore, during the pregnancy of the cat, the owner must pay attention to supplement the necessary nutrients for the cat's body, such as various nutrients, proteins, calcium, etc., and timely increase the cat's feeding amount. Meanwhile, the owner can also feed the cat additional nutritional paste, chicken breast, lamb, etc.
- Infection with internal parasites
It is generally recommended to deworm cats 1-2 months before pregnancy, to avoid infection during pregnancy. If the owner does not deworm the cat internally and externally, the cat may become infected with parasites after pregnancy, which will rob the cat's body of nutrients, leading to the cat becoming thinner and thinner. The owner can take the cat to the pet hospital for inspection. If it is confirmed to be caused by parasites, the cat can be treated with deworming drugs under the guidance of a pet doctor.
- Precautions
During a cat's pregnancy, the owner needs to pay attention to the cat's nutrition. It is recommended to supplement more protein, and add dairy products to the cat's food. Next is exercise, ensuring the cat has appropriate exercise every day to prevent difficult labor due to a large fetus, but avoid high-risk movements to prevent injury. Finally, pet owners should regularly take the cat to the pet hospital to check if the fetus is developing normally.
