Our kitten is 7 weeks old and has an unusually large belly tonight. It appears as though he is not digesting and his stomach is very hard. He seems somewhat uncomfortable and has been sleeping as his brother plays. Any cause for concern?
Answers:
The cat just ate a lot. They can gorge on 20% of their body weight as kittens.
Worms. Time for some shots.
Bring the babies to the vet tomorrow morning to make sure they're all okay.
take them to the ver ER if it's in serious pain
I believe someone answered that it's overeating? I've never known a cat, or kitten, to overeat. That's a DOG thing! Check his litter box if you think he's not digesting. But don't play guessing games with any of us out here--SEE A VET. It could be serious, hopefully not.
We had a kitten once who always seemed to have problems with his digestion. Once we had to give him a little pepto to settle his stomach. My cousin had a puppy who's belly was really round and the vet told his wife the puppy had parasites and worms. Hopefully, Kitty just ate a little too much tonight. Best of luck with him.
it mat have worms
I cant say its over eating, I would have to agree with the person who said thats a dog thang.
cats eat till full then stop
dogs will eat till they fall over and cant move
I would have to guess the little fellow has maybe eaten something non-digestable, like string, paper, etc.
I sure hope the lil feller gets to feeling better, if it continues take that fur-baby to the vet
