Many cat owners might worry about changes in their pet.
They may be unsure whether or not what they observe
about the cat is normal, or if it could indicate a potentially
serious health problem. A healthy cat will demonstrate a
variety of characteristics, and a departure from these
should be checked out by a veterinarian.
For instance, a cat in good health will have bright-looking
eyes that are free of discharge, and the ears should
appear clean as well. Discharge at the ears, for instance,
may indicate a problem that could cause hearing issues or
pain.

3. Health and Wellness Indicators
 Cat owners should also make sure that a look at the
cat’s mouth does not reveal plaque buildup, sores, or
bad breath. Instead, the gums should look pink, and
the mouth should have a fresh smell. Additionally,
cat’s fur should look shiny, as a dirty or dull coat can
also indicate an underlying health problem.
In addition to these physical signs, a cat owner should
look for issues in behavior and the cat’s habits. A sick
cat may eat or drink less than it used to, or
conversely, consume more food or water. The cat
might also use the litter box at a different frequency,
and the look of the cat’s stool may change if it is
unwell. These changes, as well as if the cat appears
to be straining or in pain, require medical attention.
