Ragdoll Cats

Your Ragdoll cat relies on you for its well being. Because of this it is important to know what to look for so you will know when your Ragdoll is sick. If you catch a severe condition early and get to your veterinarian you have a much better chance of recovery. Here is what you need to look for when monitoring your Ragdoll cat’s health.

Cats usually hide the fact that they are feeling sick; here are warning signs to look for in your Ragdoll’s behavior. If you observe any of the following signs a trip to the veterinarian could be warranted.

Does your Ragdoll hide for long periods of time and refuse to come out? If your cat has been hiding for a day or longer it could be due to a medical condition. You’ll need to get your cat out its hiding place and investigate further.

Has your cat lost its appetite? Is your cat lethargic with a dull, detached manner? These are all signs of potential problems. Other warning signs are constant crying, excessive drinking or urinating, crying while using the litter box, and excessive vomiting.

Be on the lookout for blood or mucus in the litter box, or having multiple accidents outside of the litter box. If you observe any of these conditions or behaviors in your Ragdoll cat contact your veterinarian. Dehydration is an underlying cause of many serious conditions. Make sure your Ragdoll cat has ample fresh water available at all times.
