Why is the cat's belly bloated?

If a cat has a bloated belly, it may be caused by the following situations:

1. Dietary problems: Cats eat too much food or the food contains too much salt, which will cause water retention in the body, making the cat's belly appear bloated. In addition, cats may also have bloated abdomens due to indigestion, constipation and other problems.

2. Gastrointestinal diseases: Cats may suffer from some gastrointestinal diseases, such as gastritis, gastrointestinal infections, etc. These diseases will cause the cat's stomach to not work properly, and then cause a bloated belly.

3. Tumors or other diseases: Cats may also have bloated abdomens due to some tumors or other diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, liver disease, etc.

4. Pregnancy: If your cat is a female cat, it may be pregnant, and the cat's abdomen will gradually become larger.

If the cat's abdomen is severely swollen, it is recommended to take it to the veterinarian for a check-up. If the abdominal bloating is caused by dietary problems or indigestion, the symptoms can be relieved by controlling the cat's diet and increasing activity. If the abdominal bloating is caused by other reasons such as illness, targeted treatment is required under the guidance of a veterinarian. At the same time, pay attention to taking the cat for regular physical examinations to prevent possible health problems.
