What s going on if there are small bulging meat on the cat s belly?
Are there small bulging meat on the cat's belly? The small bulging meat on the cat's belly may be the cat's nipples or tumors, or it may be caused by parasitic infections. At this time, the owner should pay attention to the cat's status and changes in the meat. If the cat is scratched, it is likely to be a mite infection and needs to be dewormed in time.
If you find that the meat pellets continue to grow bigger, you need to take the cat to the pet hospital for examination in time, determine the specific cause and treat it in time.
1. Nipples
Cats generally have four to six pairs of nipples, both male and female, and are generally arranged symmetrically from the chest to the abdomen. The owner can open the cat's hair and observe. If you see that these meat particles appear neatly in pairs, it is the cat's nipples, and the owner doesn't have to worry.
2. Parasite infection
If the owner has not dewormed the cat for a long time, the cat may form small bulges of meat after being bitten by parasites such as mites, ticks, etc., and at the same time, the cat will continue to scratch due to itching. It is recommended that the owner pay attention to observation. If the cat is scratched, it is likely to be caused by parasite bites. At this time, the cat's hair needs to be removed and then consult a pet doctor for treatment through external deworming drugs.
3. Tumor
If the small meat on the cat's belly becomes bigger day by day, the owner will pay attention to it at this time and you need to doubt whether it is a tumor. It is recommended to consult a pet doctor in time to see if further examinations are needed.
