There are many reasons why a cat might lose weight. If a cat has poor teeth for a long time, it may experience bad breath and loss of appetite, which can affect its nutrient intake and lead to weight loss. This could be due to problems such as tartar or plaque.
In addition, if a cat's diet is monotonous or if it consumes low-quality cat food for a long period, it may suffer from malnutrition, leading to weight loss. Furthermore, cats with sensitive stomachs are prone to gastroenteritis, which can cause symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and decreased appetite, further affecting nutrient absorption and causing weight loss.
