猫のLethargy / sleeping all day — どうすればいい？

Caused by a mutated coronavirus; young and stressed cats are prone — the wet form shows a swollen belly.

Just 2-3 days of anorexia can trigger fatty liver in cats; overweight cats are at higher risk — an emergency.

The most common feline heart disease; Ragdolls and Maines are prone — the only early clue is a faster sleeping breath rate.

A post-heat emergency of unspayed females, often better hidden than in dogs (cats lick away discharge). Thirst + lethargy + a changing belly deserves high suspicion; surgery is the cure.

Fast food changes, diet indiscretion or mild infection; cats tolerate fasting poorly, so prevent dehydration.

Crystals or plugs block the narrow male urethra; fatal within 24-48 hours from rising potassium.

A severe viral disease of unvaccinated kittens with high mortality — needs isolation + intensive support.

Cats love string, hair ties and thread — linear foreign bodies slice the intestine; a surgical emergency.

Lilies are lethal to cats; one acetaminophen tablet can kill; permethrin insecticide causes seizures.

90% of cats over 12 show X-ray evidence of arthritis — feline pain is extremely well hidden.

The most common chronic disease of senior cats; early signs are subtle — blood creatinine + urinalysis stage it.

Allergic airway inflammation — the classic attack is a crouched, neck-extended dry cough; severe attacks cause respiratory distress.

Mostly herpes/calicivirus; kittens and unvaccinated cats are at risk — a blocked nose leads to refusing food.

Swallowed fur accumulates in the stomach — the occasional one is normal; frequent ones mean clearance is failing.

Overweight cats are prone; with early, proper treatment some cats go into remission.
