Cats suddenly going crazy may be because their own safety is threatened, so they use this method to protect themselves. Secondly, if a cat has the habit of guarding its food, it will suddenly go crazy when threatened. This situation usually occurs in multi-cat households, especially when a new cat is added. In addition, if a cat carries rabies virus, it will also become crazy due to external stimulation. It may also be accompanied by symptoms such as salivation, fear of light, and fear of water. You need to consult a pet doctor in time.
1. Safety is threatened
Cats are more sensitive to the outside world. If other animals or people pose a threat to their own safety, they will suddenly become irritable and crazy. At this time, the owner must pay attention to keeping a distance from the cat to avoid being accidentally injured by the cat, and wait for the cat to calm down first.
2. Food protection
If a cat has the habit of protecting food, it will also suddenly go crazy when there is a threat, such as other cats snatching its food, or other cats around it. strangers coming in and out, etc. If the cat only shows food-protecting behavior towards its own kind, the owner can let the cats eat separately. If the cat is also protective of people's food, it needs to be desensitized when it is young, otherwise the cat may bite people as it grows.
3. Rabies
If a cat carries rabies virus, it will also become crazy due to external stimulation. Early symptoms are not obvious and may be accompanied by behavioral changes, such as avoiding, escaping, and suddenly biting people. Later, they will develop into drooling, unconscious screaming, not recognizing the owner, and increased aggression. It is recommended that when the owner discovers that the cat has the above situation, he should isolate the cat in time to prevent being scratched or bitten by the cat, and consult a pet doctor to determine whether the cat is infected with rabies.
