الأسباب المحددة
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
80%CKD is common in older cats and can lead to poor appetite, weight loss, and a dull coat due to the kidneys' inability to filter waste effectively. It often progresses slowly.
Hyperthyroidism
70%An overactive thyroid gland speeds up metabolism, causing weight loss despite a good or increased appetite. It can also lead to a poor coat.
Gastrointestinal Issues (e.g., Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Malabsorption)
60%Problems with the digestive system can impair nutrient absorption, leading to weight loss and a poor coat, even with adequate food intake. Vomiting or diarrhea may also be present.
Dental Disease
