Cat's pain is a bad feeling, which is caused by many external and internal factors, such as bruises or lesions in the cat's internal organs. Cats will cry out for severe pain, but some owners who are not severe but persistent will not notice it immediately, and cats can't communicate with their owners in words and tell us what is uncomfortable, which requires their owners to observe carefully and find abnormalities.
First of all, fidgeting
If the cat is fidgeting, it may also be a sign of pain.
Cats give people the impression that they are as quiet as a virgin and as moving as a rabbit. They are usually lazy and like to lie prone, but they disappear as soon as they move. If the cat suddenly becomes very excited and agitated and constantly adjusts its position in the cat's nest, it may be that there is a pain in the body.
Second, it is inconvenient to move.
Cat joint pain is hard to find, and the close-up is that their owners may take some symptoms as normal signs of aging. Arthritis or some joint diseases can cause pain in cats, such as loss of appetite, weight loss, inability to lick hair, reluctance to walk and jump, limping, muscle atrophy, etc., and need to be examined.
Another kind of mobility inconvenience is that you don't want to move or be touched somewhere. This may be caused by internal diseases of cats, such as foreign bodies in the stomach. At this time, cats often lie down and don't want to move, and their owners will touch their bodies, especially their stomachs, but this situation will also be accompanied by other symptoms, such as vomiting and bloody stool.
Third, social behavior has decreased.
Although some people think that cats are withdrawn, they can improve their social skills through intentional training. They will gradually be willing to get in touch with things around them, such as other people's cats, dogs and children. If a cat that is usually lively and active suddenly becomes quiet and unwilling to make any noise, it may be caused by pain in some parts.
Fourth, show aggressive behavior.
Well-trained cats generally don't attack humans unless they encounter some abnormalities. The cat will attack the pathological, physical or pain imposed on it. At this time, if you touch the cat, especially the painful part, the cat will resist and even attack you. These factors include injury, osteoarthrosis and other pain caused by drug treatment. Aggressive behavior caused by pain factors may also turn into fearful aggressive behavior if the time is prolonged due to drug treatment or other treatment procedures imposed on it.
Verb (abbreviation for verb) self-destructive behavior
Self-injury behavior is mostly caused by nerve injury or extreme pain. Cats with self-injury behaviors are generally extremely excited. For example, if a cat is bitten by a rabid dog, it will be furious and have self-injury behavior.
