Folded ears cats are a breed of cats, do you know the symptoms of their illness?

Folded ears are a breed of cats. Because of its cuteness and beauty, it is often kept as a pet cat. It is more beautiful than the average cat.

The same goes for rickets. This means that the cartilage in the body is not well developed. Sometimes it appears on the hands and feet, and some even appear on the respiratory tract.

The latter condition is more serious, as it will lead to poor breathing, and finally lead to the cat's lack of energy. Oxygen and death. In fact, not all folded ears cats will get sick, but some will not escape the bad luck.

Today we will talk about the symptoms of folded ears cats. First of all, we have to observe cats on our own every day, especially newborn cats. At this time, cats are more likely to get sick.

Cats with genetic disorders are often listless. When you find that the cat does not like to eat and does not like to move, you should think about whether the cat is sick. You can take it to a veterinary hospital for a check-up, because it is not easy for ordinary people to tell if it is sick or not.

It's more accurate to see a doctor. Also, when you see that the cat's waist can't be straightened when walking, it may be that the cat's bones are not fully developed, and you should see a doctor at this time.

Cats that are already sick have skeletal dysplasia, their tails do not stretch well, and they appear thicker and more awake. Generally, the tail of a cat is relatively soft, remember to touch the cat's tail often to determine whether it is sick. Also, if you notice that your cat's hind legs are shorter than regular cats and are stiff, you are definitely sick at this time.

When checking the length of the leg, look at the soles of its feet. The soles of kittens are usually thinner. If you notice that it has thickened, you may also be sick.

Finally, if your cat's nails are too long, consider whether it is sick.

Early detection and early ** is a cliché, and the same is true for pets. We are well aware that folded ears cats have congenital genetic diseases, so we should pay attention to observation and not ignore these small details. After all, the devil is in the details.

It should be noted that although this disease can not be a**, it can alleviate the pain of cats by **, prevention is the priority, or it is better to be cautious. If you are sick and in particular pain, you can take some measures to solve the cat's life without it hurting too much.

I don't like to exercise, and I sit in one place for a long time. This is a folded ear cat relieving pain in the body. The genetic defect caused his cartilage to develop abnormally, so he was unable to bear the weight of his body normally, causing him to experience pain in a position that other cats would not do.

Loss of appetite, listlessness, dislike of activity, bending of hind limbs, and stiff tail.

When this cat gets sick, it will have a stiff tail, swollen joints, and it will cause the joints to be deformed, which will cause him to be very uncomfortable.

Abnormal curvature can also cause growths, lumps, and swelling of the joints of the limbs; The hind soles are hypertrophied, if you observe carefully, you will find that when the cat sits very straight, the hind soles of the pillow meat can not touch the ground If you find that the cat is abnormal, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time or use the pet bone to stand strong, and you can basically improve it after eating three courses of treatment.

Folded ears cats do not necessarily have the disease, can be judged by the phenomenon of limp in the hind limbs, often lifting the front feet, arching the back, walking as if on stilts, the cat's tail appears stubby, the joints are stiff and can not swing, the bones and joints of the hind limbs are abnormally developed, the foot bones are deformed and bent, and they appear much shorter than those of normal cats.

The latest clinical data show that kittens as young as 7 weeks old may develop symptoms of skeletal disease, which is generally manifested by deformation of the bones at the end of the limbs, and the hind limbs are usually more severe than the forelimbs. However, because it is in the early stage of the disease, the cat is less painful, so it will not show obvious symptoms, and if you want to be diagnosed at an early stage, you need to use X-ray help, so it is easy for the owner to ignore it. Many veterinarians said that most of the cats who came to the clinic were already in serious condition.

Like other cats, the necessities of life for folded ears cats include: cat litter box, cat litter, a bowl for eating and drinking, a cat climbing frame and a cat scratching board, in addition, a warm and comfortable cat nest should be prepared for the folded ear cat, the cat nest is best placed in a sunny and ventilated place, so that the cat can also bask in the sun when sleeping, sunbathing is very important for cats, both to replenish calcium, and to sterilize.

Folded ears cats must ensure a certain amount of water to drink every day, so every day to prepare an appropriate amount of fresh drinking water for folded ears cats, can not give the cat to drink tap water, but must drink cold boiled water, drinking water bowls to be cleaned every day, each time before loading the drinking book to wipe the bowl dry.

Hello, I am inquiring for you here, please wait a while, I will reply to you immediately.

Hello, I'm glad to answer for you, folded ears cats do not necessarily get sick, some of the quality of the folded ears cat, in about four months will appear stiff, arched back and other symptoms, this is its bone genetic disease attack, will soon die of illness. The probability of developing a good quality folded ear cat is relatively low, and there are many people who have folded ears cat that has lived for three or four years and is still healthy. You must be cautious when buying a folded ear cat and don't pay just for its cuteness.

Folded ears cats are known to carry congenital diseases, and it is more expensive and energy-consuming to maintain than ordinary cats, so you must be cautious.

The domestic market for folded ears cats is relatively chaotic, because folded ears cats carry congenital diseases, and many places are not allowed to breed in large quantities. In order to meet the needs of many catteries, regardless of whether the cat is healthy or not, and regardless of its pedigree and appearance, the folded ear cats born are easy to get sick and die.

At present, a folded ear cat with a not very pure bloodline is generally around 2,000 to 5,000. If it is a well-blooded and high-quality folded ear cat, ** is generally about 50 million, and the better the folded ear cat, the less likely it is to get sick.

I hope the above is helpful to you If you are satisfied with me, please give me a thumbs up

It depends on the cat's physique.

When a folded ear cat is sick, it will show a series of obvious symptoms, and the owner can use this to see if the folded ear cat is sick. After the onset of the disease, folded ear cats will have symptoms such as sitting and standing like a human, lying flat and sleeping, stiff tail and joints that cannot be bent, swollen paws, abnormal hypertrophy of the soles of the feet, lameness, and arched back.

Due to the development of joint deformity, folded ears cats will often sit like people, and sometimes folded ears cats will also lie flat to sleep, in order to collapse to relieve the pain caused by the disease to the body, so when pet owners find that folded ears cats have abnormal sitting or sleeping postures, you need to be alert to folded ears cats have become ill.

The tail becomes thick and stiff, unable to bend and swing is also an obvious symptom of the disease of the folded ear cat, and the joints of the folded ear cat will also be stiff, deformed, unable to bend, accompanied by swollen paws, unable to stretch, pain when pressing, abnormal hypertrophy of the soles of the feet and other symptoms.

Once the folded ear cat is sick, it will initially behave blindly and do not like to move, and there will be a limp when walking, as if it is stepping on stilts. Then he began to have mobility disorders, and the obvious symptoms included hunched back, inability to bounce, inability to play normally, etc.

If the owner notices that the folded ear cat often lifts its front feet, it should also be taken notice. In order to relieve the pain of the body, the folded ear cat will change the center of gravity by lifting the foot to reduce the pressure on the joints by the weight of the body.

After the onset of the disease, folded ear cats like to sit in a spread, lie down in a large shape, do not like to move, are lazy and weak, the tail is so stiff that it cannot bend and swing, and the hind limbs will have unusual bending. Not all folded ears cats get sick, but when they do, the disease can torment them for life.

When a folded-eared cat suddenly likes to stand or sit in a large zigzag pattern, they may have an illness. At the beginning of the disease, the folded ear cat will also show inactivity, laziness and weakness because of pain, and sometimes walk with a limp on its hind limbs.

After the onset of the disease in the folded ear cat, the obvious symptoms that can be seen are the stiff tail, the inability to flex and swing, the unusual bending or lump of the hind limbs, and the abnormal hypertrophy of the soles of the feet.

Although not every folded ear cat will get sick, but once the disease is accompanied by life, the owner can only use drugs to help the cat relieve pain, unable to **.

The genetic disease of the folded ear cat is not fatal, but it can bring long-term and great pain to the cat, and every step of the sick cat will bring full pain to the body.

The appearance of the folded ear cat is very cute, and it is a little thing that I feel sorry for. The character of the folded ear cat is well-behaved and quiet, and many people will like such a cute little guy. However, under the beautiful and cute appearance of folded ear cats, they actually have fragile bodies, and they are born with genetic problems, so they have to endure illness as soon as they are born.

Although folded-eared cats will not get sick when they buy them, they will happen sooner or later because they carry disease-causing genes. Their genetic diseases cannot be improved, so they can only be detected as early as possible. Of course, even if it is timely, this genetic disease can still make them miserable.

Once the folded ear cat has these three reactions, I am afraid that it is going to become ill, and it is necessary to ** immediately, perhaps as much as possible to delay the onset of the disease!

The first reaction: sitting in a weird position.

They sometimes sit in a "human" sitting position, rather than lying on their stomachs like cats. If they become ill, they will sit upright with their upper body upright like a person to delay the discomfort. If you find that your folded ears already have such a situation, don't delay, it's better to take it to the hospital immediately**.

The cat's sitting posture means that its bones have been deformed, so it can only use such a weird posture to keep it pain-free.

The second reaction: joint deformity.

If you find that the paws of the cat's feet are deformed and the walking posture is abnormal, do not delay, because the cat's disease is already very serious. If there is bone deformation, it means that they are already very sick, and there is no good way to go to **. Although there is no such thing as a good solution**, it can still be relieved.

The third reaction: not like to move.

Folded ears are a congenital genetic disease that occurs after the onset of the diseaseCats start to dislike to eat and like to sit in a stall, lying down in a large zigzag shape, becoming inactive, inactive, lazy and weak, the disease will torment the folded ear cat, causing its tail to be stiff, unable to flex and swing, have unusual bends or lumps in the hind limbs, and sometimes walk with a limp on the hind limbs. Not every folded ear cat will get sick, but it will stay with it for life.

Although folded ears cats are born with hereditary bone diseases, not every folded ears cat will develop the disease, but there are certain risks. In 1975, Dr., UKOjackson's research suggests that the genetic disorder is caused by mating two cats with folded ears.

He believed that by mating a folded cat with a cat that did not have folded ears, he could avoid giving birth to a kitten with a genetic disease.

However, according to Dr. Sydney, AustraliaAccording to a 1999 study by Richard Malik, all folded cats with folded ears have the chance to develop some degree of bone and joint disease. The only way to avoid this genetic disease is to give up breeding folded ears cats.

In addition, it has been proved from current cases that kittens born to folded ears and non-folded ears cats can also get this genetic disease.

In the early stage of the disease, the folded ears of the cat obviously do not like to move, and gradually there are problems with daily actions, and some symptoms appear, the tail is stiff and cannot be bent, and the tail of some sick cats cannot swing.

If the hind limbs are too short, there will be abnormal bending, growths, lumps, and swelling of the joints of the limbs; The hind paw is hypertrophied, and if you look closely, you will find that when the cat sits very straight, the hind paw occipital meat does not touch the ground; Nail growth is also strange, and the hind limbs are slightly lighter than the forelimbs.

Not only that, folded-eared cats usually get sick easily, and it is difficult to heal after getting sick. There is no way to do bone and joint disease, but only through medication, the condition will slowly spread over time, and in severe cases, it can lead to paralysis.

Felis silvestris catus (scientific name: Felis silvestris catus, also known as the flat-eared cat) is a genus of cats of the order Carnivorous family, named after the place where it was found and its physical characteristics.

The Scottish Fold has a fold in the cartilage that causes the ears to bend forward and point in front of the head. [1] Because of this, these cats suffer from congenital orthopedic diseases and often use a sitting posture to relieve pain.

Folded-eared cats don't necessarily get sick, but they all do. This is a purely probabilistic event, not a foregone conclusion. When a cat with folded ears begins to get sick, it will show symptoms such as sitting upright, lifting its feet, not being mobile, limping, stiff tail, swollen joints, abnormal nail growth, and abnormal hypertrophy of the palms and soles of the feet.

1. Folded ears cats don't necessarily get sick.

Every folded cat carries a genetic defect, but not all folded cats are guaranteed to get sick. It's just that every folded ear cat is at risk of getting sick, which is a probability event. However, even cats with folded ears that do not have diseases can have problems such as large joints, weak constitution, and deformed palms and soles.

Genetic defects in folded ears are passed down from generation to generation as folded ears reproduce. The only way to avoid this genetic disease is to give up keeping folded ears cats.

Second, the symptoms of folded ears cats after the onset of the disease

1.Sit up straight with your feet raised

Cats with broken ears will like to sit up straight and lie down to sleep when they are sick, as this position can reduce the pain caused by the disease. In order to reduce the pain in the body, the folded ear cat will also change the center of gravity by lifting the foot, reducing the pressure on the joints by the weight of the body.

2.Don't like activities

The age and severity of the onset of folded ears in cats will vary from person to person. From childhood to adulthood, folded ears cats have the possibility of disease. Once a cat with a broken ear is sick, it will initially show inactivity, limp, like walking on stilts, but then it will gradually begin to show some mobility obstacles.

When a cat with folded ears is seriously ill, its tail will become short, thick and stiff, unable to bend and swing. There will be swelling of the limbs, swollen toes, deformities, bending of the hind limbs, etc. The soles of the hind legs will also be abnormally thick, the nails will be abnormally long, and some cats will not be able to extend their paws normally after the disease.
