Why Does Your Cat Eat but Stay Thin? (Worms and More)
A cat that eats well but stays thin is often fighting intestinal parasites—roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms, giardia, or coccidia—that steal nutrients and release toxins interfering with digestion, causing slow or lost weight, anemia, and poor growth. Tell-tale signs include soft stools, rice-like segments near the anus, scooting, pale gums, and a swollen belly. But worms are not the only cause: poor absorption, hyperthyroidism or diabetes, repeated heat cycles, or a low-protein diet can also keep a cat lean. The fix is a tailored deworming plan plus gut probiotics and high-protein meals; spaying helps if heat is the driver. See a vet if weight keeps dropping.
