My Cat has been strange after taking him to the vet

Hello! It’s understandable to feel concerned when your cat behaves differently after a vet visit. Cats can be sensitive creatures, and any change in their routine can cause them to act out of the ordinary. After a vet visit, it’s common for them to feel stressed or anxious. They might hide, be less active, or retreat more than usual. The scent of the vet’s office and the travel can also make your cat feel unsettled.



At home, you can help by creating a calm environment. Provide your cat with a quiet space where they can feel safe and secure. Using familiar items, like their favorite blanket or toy, might comfort them. Make sure they have access to food, water, and a litter box nearby.



It's important to watch for signs that might indicate something more serious, such as vomiting, diarrhea, not eating for more than a day, or any difficulty breathing. These could be signs of a medical issue needing further attention.



If your cat continues to behave strangely for more than a couple of days or displays any concerning symptoms, it might be helpful to book a video consult with us on Dial A Vet. This way, we can assess more closely and ensure your feline friend gets any support they might need.
