It is difficult to directly determine how long it will take for a folded-eared cat to die. If it is a common skin disease or gastrointestinal disease, it usually will not affect life and will not lead to death. If it is a more serious disease, such as cat plague , renal failure, etc., without timely correct and effective treatment, it may be life-threatening. It takes about 1 to 3 years from onset to death. If the condition continues to worsen, it is recommended that the owner take the folded-eared cat to a regular pet hospital for treatment in time, which can prolong the life.
1. Reasons for not dying
If the folded-eared cat suffers from gastrointestinal and skin diseases, such as dermatitis, allergies, functional indigestion, gastritis, gastric ulcer, etc., it is not considered serious. Through active and effective treatment, the disease can control the development of the disease and reduce the damage to itself. It is generally not life-threatening and will not lead to the death of folded-eared cats.
2. Causes of death
If cats suffer from kidney failure, feline distemper is an acute and highly contagious infectious disease, and the mortality rate is relatively high, about 50%~ 80%. Renal failure is mainly caused by damage to kidney function, which affects the normal operation of kidney function and leads to kidney failure. Both of the above diseases are relatively serious diseases. The time from onset to death is not particularly long, usually between 1 year and 3 years.
3. Care methods for cats with folded ears during the onset of illness
During the onset of illness, it is necessary to clean the skin and bathe frequently. At the same time, you also need to adjust your eating habits. Eat less and more meals. If you overeat, eat easily digestible food, such as soft soaked cat food, nutritional paste, etc., which can supplement nutrition, enhance physical fitness, and help the body recover. If the symptoms of physical discomfort gradually worsen during the illness, it is recommended that the owner take the cat to the hospital for treatment in time, otherwise the condition may easily worsen.
