Feline depression is not contagious. Feline depression is a mental illness, not an infectious disease. The reasons for cat depression may come from three aspects: the cat itself, the external environment, and the owner.
Similar to human depression, cat depression is not caused overnight, but is a long-term response. Symptoms caused by irritation. When cats are under high pressure, abused, abandoned, and lack companionship for a long time, they are prone to depression. Once a cat is depressed, it is difficult to cure.
When a cat is depressed, it should be sent to a pet hospital for treatment and diagnosis in time. Determine the degree of depression in your cat with the help of your veterinarian, and then prescribe effective treatment methods to implement treatment. Then you should care more about the cat at home, stroke the cat's head and body, prepare more delicious cat food and toys that the cat likes to play with, so that the cat can become familiar with the environment it lives in as soon as possible and relax its vigilance.
