Translator : AWI Team

Monitoring your pet’s health is your responsibility as a Pawparents. The obstacle that often occurs is that Pawparents have difficulty understanding what the danger signs are in anabul. This danger sign, if not handled immediately, will lead to death.

Pawrents need to know, pets cannot express pain or discomfort. However, they give certain signs, even some symptoms indicate that they are in need of medical attention.

Here are some signs that your pet may need to be taken to the vet immediately:

1. Changes in Eating and Drinking Patterns

Don’t ignore it if your pet suddenly eats/drinks less than usual. Loss of appetite/drinking can be an indication of a health problem. Drastic changes in pet’s eating and drinking habits could indicate an infection or other illness. Consult a doctor immediately if your pet experiences this. 

2. Unexplained Weight Loss

Significant weight loss for no apparent reason is a serious warning sign. This symptom could indicate problems such as worms, cancer or other chronic diseases. If your pet experiences this, please see your Veterinarian immediately for further evaluation.

3. Lethargy or Lack of Energy

If your pet is normally active but suddenly becomes limp or lackluster, they could be experiencing health issues. Prolonged weakness can be a sign of anemia, heart disease, or other serious conditions. Consult your Veterinarian immediately for further examination.

4. Coughing, Sneezing, or Difficulty Breathing

Coughing, sneezing, or difficulty breathing could indicate respiratory problems such as respiratory infections, bronchitis, or heart disease. If your pet shows any of these symptoms, consult a veterinarian immediately. 

5. Changes in Urination

Diarrhea, constipation, or changes in urination frequency can be a sign of digestive or urinary system problems. Also, pay attention if there is blood in the pet’s urine or feces. That’s a strong sign that the pet is in need of immediate medical attention.

6. Wounds or Swelling that Won’t Heal

A wound or swelling that doesn’t heal in a reasonable amount of time could be a sign of infection or even cancer. Pets that frequently lick or bite certain areas may be trying to relieve pain or discomfort. Pawrents should see a Veterinarian immediately if they see this in their pet.

7. Changes in Behavior

Behavioral changes such as sudden aggression, anxiety, or withdrawal can indicate that your pet is experiencing pain or stress. Behavioral changes are often the first sign of health problems.

8. Skin and coat problems

Red, itchy, scaly skin or shedding fur can indicate allergies, infections or other skin problems. If your pet is constantly scratching or biting itself, get it checked by a veterinarian immediately.

9. Excessive Vomiting

While occasional vomiting can be considered normal, excessive or chronic vomiting is a warning sign. It could indicate digestive problems, infection, or even poisoning. If your pet vomits more than once a day or shows signs of dehydration, don’t hesitate to consult a veterinarian.

10. Difficulty Moving or Pain

Does your Anabul seem to be in pain when moving, such as limping or not wanting to walk? Be on the lookout, Pawrents. Because this could be a sign of problems with joints, bones, or muscles. These problems can require  immediate treatment to prevent further damage.
