Now the population of the cat breeder is really increasing, but during the process of raising cats, we should find that the state of cats is actually very similar to that of us humans. For example, female cats may become irritable and uneasy at a certain period of time. So what is the reason why the female cat suddenly becomes irritable and unwilling to touch? Let's take a look.

1. Stress reaction

Sudden change to a new environment, yelling or stimulating sounds, sudden appearance of alien species, bathing and other factors may stimulate the cat to have a stress response, resulting in sudden irritability, dislike letting the owner touch, and at the same time, they will also make actions such as yelling at the owner. In response to this situation, it is recommended that the owner give the cat enough patience to adapt and release the pressure by itself. Never stimulate the cat again, so as not to cause the situation to become more serious.

2. When cats suffer from hyperthyroidism, their bodies will secrete too much thyroid hormones, causing the cat's body heat to burn too fast. The cat will always be in a high metabolic state, excessively consume some substances in the cat's body, causing the cat to experience symptoms such as hyperactivity, increased appetite, increased bowel movement, and weight loss. Especially for elderly cats, they will suddenly be energetic. Moreover, the cat's temper will become worse and worse, no longer appear to be as gentle as usual, and its hair will become rough. If you find the above situation in the cat, you should consult a pet doctor in time for medication treatment.

3. Physical pain

If a cat is sick, physically painful or uncomfortable, in order to avoid secondary harm, it will carefully protect the injured area from being touched by others. The pain will also make the cat irritable, so it is highly aggressive. In this regard, the owner can carefully check the cat to see if there are obvious external injuries on the cat's body. If not, the owner can carefully observe the cat for a few more days to see if there are abnormalities in the cat's diet, exercise, and mental state. If there are any abnormalities, you need to seek medical treatment in time.
