If your cat is having trouble, you can try to help them. Talk to your cat calmly, and be gentle. Don't yell at him/her. Do not make him/her feel bad by shouting. It is not possible to force your cat or dog to eat. Sometimes your cat will not eat what you offer. If this happens, it is time to give treats. Overeating could result in overeating.
Keep your cat clean. You should wash your cat every day. To remove dirt and dust, use a damp cloth. Verify that your cat does not have fleas. Flea bites can cause skin irritation and allergy. Flea bites can cause severe skin irritation so you need to use a flea shampoo.
