CATDOLL : Cat keeps going to the toilet

1. The kitten is not weaned. If the kitten is not weaned, it needs to drink milk frequently to supplement nutrition, so it goes to the toilet more frequently, which is normal.

2. The cat is in estrus. When a cat is in estrus, it will go to the toilet frequently and make noises.

3. Cats are constipated. Cats often feel like defecating but cannot or only produce a small amount. You can use enema to soften the feces, but do not let the cat rely on enema to defecate.

4. Urinary system problems. If a cat has kidney disease, urinary tract infection, or urinary tract stones that stimulate the urethral mucosa and produce the urge to urinate, but the amount of urine is very small or even no urine or hematuria occurs, the cat should be taken to a pet hospital for treatment in a timely manner.

5. The cat is pregnant. Cats may also go to the toilet frequently because of pregnancy. As the kitten grows in the mother cat's belly, it will press on the mother cat's internal organs. If the mother cat's bladder is squeezed, there is no way to store urine, and the cat will go to the toilet frequently. When the mother cat gives birth to kittens, the frequent toileting phenomenon will disappear.

6. Cats drink too much water. If cats drink a lot of water, they will go to the toilet frequently.

7. Chronic nephritis. Chronic nephritis can cause frequent urination, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, etc. If the cat has abnormal behavior, please take it to the hospital for examination as soon as possible.

What causes cats to urinate blood?

1. Problems with the urinary system. The cat's urethra and bladder are infected, or the ureter is damaged, there are stones in the body, etc., which may cause the cat to urinate blood.

2. Insufficient water intake. Some cats do not like to drink water. The lack of water in their bodies makes it difficult for them to urinate. If the urine concentration is too high, it is easy to find that the urinary tract is blocked, leading to hematuria.

3. Food poisoning. Cats may suffer from food poisoning if they eat forbidden foods, such as garlic and chocolate, which may lead to vomiting, diarrhea, hematuria and other adverse symptoms. If a cat accidentally eats a small amount, you can induce vomiting and give the cat more water to speed up metabolism and excrete trace toxins from the body. If the cat accidentally eats a serious amount, it is recommended that the owner take the cat to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.

4. Dietary problems. If you often feed your cat food that is high in oil and salt, it will put a certain burden on the kidneys. In the long run, it will cause certain damage to the cat's body, and it is very likely to cause hematuria.

5. Failure to change cat litter in time. If the owner changes the cat litter too long or does not clean the litter box in time, the excrement will accumulate and breed bacteria, causing the cat to have a urinary tract infection, which will cause hematuria.

6. Stress reaction. Cats are very insecure animals. When cats are frightened or stimulated while sleeping or urinating, they may also urinate blood.
