Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Male | unneutered | 5 months and 20 days old | 3.968 lbs
Hey. My kutten has suddenly stopped playing with his fav toys and with another cat. Its been 6-7 days now. He just sits and stares or sleeps ... But isnt playing at all. Hes healthy and eating properly. He was dewormed 6 days back. I took him to the vet today for physical and internal checkup. Hes all fine and healthy vet said. But i can't understand why has he stopped playing or showing any interest.

That is unusual. It may be that he’s just growing out of the playful kitten stage. As long as he’s healthy and you’ve had him examined then I would just give him time. If there is something medically wrong you should see a specific problem if it worsens. He could just be tired or sore if he had a mild injury you didn’t see. Hopefully with rest and time he’ll be back to his playful self. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Hachiko.
