* Loss of appetite: They might not be interested in eating.
* Increased thirst: They may drink more water than normal.
* Vomiting and diarrhea: These symptoms can indicate an infection.
* Frequent urination and/or straining to urinate: This is a sign of bladder irritation, which can be caused by an infection.
* Abdominal swelling: The belly may be distended due to fluid buildup.
