Treatment methods for low body temperature in cats:

1. Go to a professional veterinary store for infusion to promote the metabolic circulation of the cat’s body.

2. Take measures to keep the cat warm, put it in an air-conditioned room, or prepare a hot water bottle for the cat and place it next to the cat.

3. Prepare some glucose. If there is no glucose, use sugar water instead. Feed the cat some glucose or sugar water to supplement the sugar for energy.

4. Massage the cat’s paws and ears to promote blood circulation. Raise its body temperature. Put an electric blanket on your cat to soothe it and keep it happy.

Causes of low body temperature in cats:

1. The environment in which the cat is located is too cold, causing the cat to be unable to regulate normally, resulting in hypothermia.

2. Cats that do not eat for a long time can cause hypoglycemia and lower body temperature.

3. Infectious diseases lead to persistent diarrhea in cats, internal environment disorder, acid-base balance imbalance, and central body temperature regulation is also uncontrollable.

4. Hypoglycemia caused by sepsis caused by cats infected with viral diseases. When a cat is infected with feline distemper virus, there will be further secondary bacterial infection in the intestines. The cat's white blood cells will drop sharply, resulting in hypoglycemia and lower body temperature.
