Cat pica at home?

The probability of eating cat litter among all different foods is the highest, from small cats who are just over a month old to large cats. Perhaps because more and more cat litters now use natural materials, such as tofu, corn, etc., and many cat litters have a faint milky aroma.

Although there is no definite conclusion to the specific cause, most veterinarians and experts tend to believe that the lack of a certain vitamin or mineral in the body is the most likely cause.

Hypothyroidism and certain liver, pancreatic and gastrointestinal diseases may cause pica, and neurological diseases, such as rabies or neurotoxin exposure, may also cause pica. Therefore, cats who have pica should pay special attention to these hidden dangers. Most cats with leukemia will have pica behavior.

Frustration or anxiety can cause pica. When a cat feels that you are not paying enough attention to it, it will also attract your attention by eating something strange. If eating something can attract your attention, it may strengthen its pica behavior.
