5 raisons pour lesquelles votre chat tremble
Les chats, comme les humains, peuvent se mettre à trembler pour se réchauffer. Cependant, il peut y avoir un problème si votre chat semble frissonner et trembler en permanence sans raison apparente.
 
1. Hypoglycémie
 
Une baisse de la glycémie, ou hypoglycémie, est une cause fréquente de tremblements chez les chats. Elle survient généralement, comme chez les humains, lorsqu’un chat n’a pas mangé depuis un certain temps. En lui donnant son repas ou une friandise, son taux de sucre dans le sang devrait augmenter et les tremblements cesser.
 
Un faible taux de sucre dans le sang peut également être dû à des problèmes digestifs tels que des vomissements, de la diarrhée ou de la constipation. Dans ce cas, encourager le chat à manger est aussi la solution.
 
Si un chat refuse de manger, parce qu’il est difficile ou parce qu’il ne se sent pas bien, déposer une goutte de miel dans sa bouche (pas plus d’une cuillère à soupe) peut rapidement augmenter son taux de sucre dans le sang et le rétablir à un niveau approprié.

 
2. Hyperthermie
 
Un chat atteint d’une infection avancée et souffrant d’une forte fièvre peut se mettre à trembler à cause de « frissons ». Il est conseillé aux propriétaires de chats de garder un thermomètre à portée de main afin de prendre la température de leur chat s’ils soupçonnent une maladie. Une température supérieure à 103,5 degrés Fahrenheit indique de la fièvre et qu’une visite chez le vétérinaire s’impose.
 
 
3. Hypothermie
 
Tout comme une température interne élevée peut provoquer des tremblements chez un chat, une température interne trop basse peut également entraîner des frissons. Les chats adultes en bonne santé peuvent généralement réguler leur température interne normale, mais les chats jeunes et âgés peuvent avoir plus de difficultés. Des couvertures chaudes et des coussins chauffants par temps froid peuvent aider les chats vulnérables à rester bien au chaud.

 
4. Douleur
 
Les chats expriment rarement ouvertement leur douleur, mais les tremblements peuvent être le signe qu’ils souffrent d’une blessure ou d’une maladie. Si vous pensez que cela peut être le cas, emmenez immédiatement votre chat recevoir des soins médicaux.

 
5. Stress
 
Un chat stressé ou anxieux peut se mettre à trembler de manière incontrôlable à la suite d’une crise de nervosité. Les chats sont des animaux sensibles et il peut être difficile de déterminer exactement ce qui les perturbe. Les changements dans leur environnement, aussi anodins qu’ils puissent nous sembler, peuvent déclencher de la détresse chez les chats qui s’épanouissent dans la prévisibilité. De nouveaux meubles, la vue d’un autre chat rôdant dans le quartier qu’il aperçoit par la fenêtre ou les bruits provenant du chantier voisin peuvent tous rendre un chat malheureux et le faire trembler de détresse.
 
Si vous pouvez retirer l’objet qui contrarie votre chat, essayez de le faire. S’il s’agit de quelque chose comme un nouveau canapé auquel vous tenez, ou d’un élément hors de votre contrôle tel que le bruit du voisinage, essayez de lui proposer d’autres objets réconfortants pour l’aider à s’adapter aux changements qui le bouleversent. Installer davantage de couchages-caches dans la maison et des perchoirs où se poser est très efficace pour soulager le stress des chats, car les félins se sentent naturellement plus en sécurité lorsqu’ils sont en hauteur ou peuvent se cacher dans un espace sombre, loin du « danger ».
 
Comme toujours, nous recommandons de consulter d’abord un vétérinaire afin d’écarter tout problème sous-jacent grave et de vous assurer que votre animal reçoit le traitement parfaitement adapté à son problème.

    Hi. I have a cat called bubbles. He is 11 yrs old. For the last 6 months. I have notice he shakes even when holding him. It feels like a nerve shaking. My daughter also bought home two other cats. They dont seem to get along. So I tried for the two females to keep outside. While outside I bring my male Bubbles in. Or other way round. I love them all and I am a cat lover. I give them all unconditional love. But Bubbles is my no1. And he worries me, because lile I said. Concerned abouy his shaking. Then 3 weeks ago. He just ate then saw the other cat and it felt like he was joking and had like a fit. It looked like he was joking with his food. He has done thay twice. I am in the pension and going through hardship. If I am able to have the money will yake him to vet. But at the time I really need help as I am worried if he having heart attack. Please help me. Thank you Erika

    Everyone should look into the docu-series truth about pet cancer. Commercial pet food is poison to animals. 50 years ago 1 in 100 dogs got cancer. today it is 1 in 1.65. Cats is 1 in 3 get cancer. Raw feeding just like they would in nature is what you want to do to prevent your pet from cancer.

    My cat Meeko is a 8 year old female, and every time a thunder storm brews she walks slower and lower to the ground and when I feel her she shakes almost like she is shivering. Is she cold? Is she afraid? Is she nervous? Let me know if you have the same problem or something similar.

    O meu gato após eu me mudar de cidade só vive em baixo da cama so sai para comer beber e fazer necessidades.
    Ou em vima do armário e geladeira,más esses dias está com uma tremedeira.

    my boy cat, which is about 10-11 months I believe has been quite constipated for the last week or so and is quite as expected afraid to go due to the pain (he has been flushed, which he still hasn’t gone obviously) but he’s started shaking with it, I don’t know if the shaking is due to him stressing himself out or due to the pain or just simply being cold since he mostly shakes when he’s laying down when he does it and just naturally meows/hisses in pain when being moved

  13. Meg

    If your cat is constipated, try adding water to his food, or goat milk, or even that grass for cats. It helps with digesting and pushing good out.

  14. narai sheikh

    My 5 year old male is sick for the last 5 days, the middle and lower portion of his body is trembling, he has become very inactive, sleeps under the quilt the whole day and running around only while his body is trembling.

  17. TeriS

    Persian 15 + and had arthritis and nasal carsonoma. Decided it was time to avoid further suffering before injections and after the cafeter was placed in leg.. she was shivering.. room was extremely cold with AC.. so I wrapped the blanked around her and she just seemed to relax. and went peacefully.. wondered why she would shiver would if be fear?

    My cat giving some sound that i didn't understand what the sound exactly means.

  19. Isabelle Lugg

    That sounds bad all of them do

  20. Jen

    If your cat is shivering, shaking, acting abnormal, not eating, constipated, coughing, hiding, chewing himself raw, etc for more than a day or two STOP ASKING THE INTERNET AND TAKE HIM/HER TO THE VET. If your child was doing this, would you be sitting in your butt asking random people with no qualifications questions?

  21. Annie Kenigsberg

    I just washed my kittens and I have put them in towels warming them up and they are shacking and meowing

  22. Kelly

    Most likely the kittens are traumatized by thier bath and are both scared and cold. I’m sure once they warmed up and realized no harm was done they went back to being themselves

  23. Krastol

    I know this is old, but at one month old I'd their eyes are not clear then they should still be on kitten replacement milk.

  24. Summer

    My boy cat is about a year and I noticed him shaking like this today. Did you ever find out what was wrong, is he okay?

  27. Dani

    My 4 year old cat Benny always has been very social with people and my other cat, but when he sleeps or even just relaxes next to me he seems to have tension shivers. I notice it especially when he purrs but I don’t know why. He’s fine always and shows no signs of being sick. Is this familiar to anyone?

  28. Nue

    Hi. I'm aware it has been 1 year since you commented this, but I'd like to point out that yes, I'm familiar with the situation you described. I have no idea why your cat does that and I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with my own cat too.

    Have you found out why, yet? Is your kitty okay now? I'm hoping you found something and maybe could give me some help for my furry friend as he also shivers the same way you mentioned.

    My 7th month old kitten is shaking and meowing and growling.
    He’s been to the vet’s because what he recently ate.
    But they gave him a shot to help him feel better.
    His nose looks like it was bleeding a little bit.
    He started shaking,meowing and growling out of the blue.
    He was fine a half hour ago I don’t know what’s wrong.
    Is there anything it might be?
