A cat’s lack of energy and always sleeping may be caused by hypoglycemia, stress response, illness, etc. First of all, if the cat does not show other abnormal symptoms, it may be caused by hypoglycemia or stress reaction. It is recommended that the owner supplement the cat with sufficient glucose water in time, take measures to keep warm, and then observe the cat's specific condition. Secondly, if the cat is accompanied by other abnormal symptoms, such as loss of appetite, runny nose, diarrhea and other symptoms, it may be sick and needs timely medical treatment.
1. Hypoglycemia
If a cat has not eaten for a long time or has a low body temperature, it will easily cause hypoglycemia, with symptoms such as poor mental status, lethargy, not eating, dehydration, and rapid heartbeat. This situation is more common in young cats and is also more dangerous. Therefore, it is recommended that owners send their cats to the hospital in time to inject glucose water and take measures to keep them warm when they find that their cats have symptoms of hypoglycemia. During daily feeding, feeding should also be done regularly, at fixed points, and quantitatively to ensure the nutritional balance of the cat's food, and to feed the cat at frequent meals.
2. Stress response
Cats themselves are animals with a relatively large stress response, so they are prone to stress reactions such as listlessness and sleepiness after receiving injections. This is a normal situation. The owner can observe the cat for two to three days. If the cat’s symptoms are relieved, there is no need to worry about it. But if the cat has other abnormalities after a period of time, it needs to go to the pet hospital for examination and treatment in time.
3. Sick
If the cat is not energetic and sleeps all the time, but is also accompanied by abnormal symptoms such as loss of appetite, runny nose, sneezing, coughing, vomiting, diarrhea, etc., It is very likely that you are sick, such as colds, infectious diseases, etc. These symptoms will appear. At this time, the owner needs to take the cat to the pet hospital for examination in time to determine the specific cause of the disease before treatment, so as not to delay the condition.
