Early symptoms of abdominal fluid accumulation in kittens include weight gain, increased waist circumference, edema of the lower limbs, obvious bulging of the abdomen, lack of energy, abdominal sensitivity, elevated body temperature, loss of appetite, rough coat, etc. Once you find that your cat has the above symptoms, you must send it to a pet hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.

Common causes of abdominal fluid accumulation in kittens:

1. Heart disease: If it is caused by heart disease, after treatment of the heart disease, the abdominal fluid accumulation will Metabolism, because heart disease can cause poor kidney drainage.

2. Liver disease: For example, the symptoms are similar to human liver ascites. After treating liver disease, the ascites can be discharged automatically. There is no need to specifically treat ascites.

3. Feline infectious peritonitis: When a cat has a large amount of ascites, it is determined to be a mutation of the coronavirus gene site, which is the so-called feline abdominal transmission. Cat abdominal transmission will also produce ascites, and treatment must be based on the corresponding condition.

4. Physiological ascites in young cats: Some young cats already have ascites in their abdominal cavity, but the amount of ascites is small and can be detected with B-ultrasound. When they grow up, the ascites will disappear.
