Why Cats Fart And How To Treat It

Digestive Disorders

Changing your cat's diet is a relatively easy fix for farting, but sometimes there may be a more serious underlying issue. If your cat doesn’t have hairballs and there haven’t been any significant changes in their diet, and they are still farting, they may be suffering one of several digestive disorders. Some cats suffer from a condition called malabsorption, an illness that prevents them from fully digesting food. This can lead to stinky farts. Parasites, pancreatic issues, or colitis can lead to internal inflammation that causes gas to increase. Your cat may also have ingested something toxic. Farting alone, however, is usually not the only symptom of these more serious issues, and farting is often accompanied by vomiting, bloody stools, constipation, and diarrhea. Take your cat the vet right away if they show any of these signs.
