You are not the 1st person who has wondered if a cat farts. And if they really do, are they normal and who do cats do it? Lucky for you, we would be clearing up the topic about cat farts today.
Do Cats really fart? Why do they do that?
You should know this before you get worried – almost all cat farts are normal. Also, most of them don’t have smell. Several popular causes of cat farts include:
- Dietary Changes
- Hairballs
- Eating garbage or spoiled food
- Swallowing a lot of air and eating too quick
- Dairy ingestion
- High fiber diets
A clean cat water bowl is also important for overall health. Make sure to replace them from time to time. We carry many designs of cat fountains to choose from.
