Now more and more families keep pets and love them as children. Pets bring a lot of fun to their owners' lives. However, once the pet suddenly becomes ill, the owner will be anxious and don't know what to do. If you pay more attention to life and do the prevention first, you can also detect and treat the disease as soon as possible.
1. Chronic kidney disease
In recent years, the number of acute renal failure in pets has increased sharply, and there is a trend of becoming younger. Chronic renal failure of pets is one of the most important diseases that cause death now and cannot be ignored. Chronic renal failure is the gradual deterioration of the kidney itself, which is usually spontaneous and related to family inheritance. If your pet drinks less water and consumes too much meat, it increases the burden on the kidneys, which can easily lead to the occurrence of diseases.
If a pet has excessive drinking, urination, anorexia, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, gradually losing weight, matte hair, bad breath, or sudden blindness, he may have kidney disease. He should go to the hospital for examination immediately!
2. Oral problems
The teeth of a pet are often ignored by his owners and are prone to symptoms such as plaque, tartar, inflammation of the teeth and tooth loss. In severe cases, it will also lead to other physical diseases. Owners can give pets healthy teeth by brushing their teeth correctly and establishing the concept of oral hygiene. Preventing dental diseases cannot be ignored. If you do not brush your teeth for a long time, or have the following symptoms of dental disease, in severe cases, you must use teeth cleaning to improve it.
There is bad breath, stenchy smell in the breath, and there is yellow or brown-green tartar, stones, and difficulty in eating and drinking water, pain or bleeding, and poor appetite, and drooling all the time, when touching the gums or mouth, there will be pain or bleeding, and you won’t want to play, don’t bite toys, or dare not drink cold water
III. Cataract disease
When it comes to cataracts, many people’s first reaction is that people will get this disease, but they don’t know that pets will also get this disease. For pets, cataracts are the most common disease that can cause visual impairment and even blindness. This disease is congenital or inherited, and is also a disease that is prone to middle-aged and elderly pets.
If you observe the pet's pupils with naked eyes that are milky white in the depths of the pet's pupils, no reflections on light, and the eyes cannot observe the fundus, you should seek medical treatment immediately. Surgical cataract removal is the only reliable treatment method. No experience has proven that there are effective drugs to treat pet cataracts. The way to take injections and medication alone is not helpful to cataracts.
