Is My Cat Depressed?
By Laura Moss, Mother Nature Network





People aren't the only ones who get the blues - cats can suffer from depression too.

Behaviorists first recognized depression in cats in the 1990s, and felines can become depressed for several reasons.

A major disruption such as moving, adding or losing a family member or a change in schedule can trigger it. If a cat's owner is going through a stressful time, the animal could also mimic that unhappy behavior.

Treatments

Simply spending more time with your feline friend can help turn that kitty's frown upside down, especially if there's been a change in routine or another person or pet has moved in. Try introducing your cat to new toys and play with him or her for at least 30 minutes a day.

During cold, dark months, provide your kitty some extra light - leave a lamp on, pull back the shades or open the blinds.

You can also try a product like Feliway, which uses pheremones to help relieve feline stress.

If your cat isn't eating or has exhibited symptoms of depression for several days, take your pet to the vet for a checkup. If a veterinarian gives your cat a clean bill of health, discuss the possibility of depression. Your vet may recommend behavioral modification techniques or prescription antidepressants.
