Our cat looks bloated around the lower chest area and didn't have an appetite this morning. I don't know if he just ate too muchbof anything outdoors or if this might be something major that needs medical attendance. He is around 1.5 years old and has been neutered. Thank you in advance for your advice/thoughts!
Talk to your vet.
Call the vet and say that ^
ITT: "go to the vet". Please give us closure now. Have you been to the vet?
We don't know, get to the vet!
Vet. It's possible for a cats intestines to get wrapped around themselves, which can kill them.
I'd call my vet. They‘d rather be annoyed by an exam that turns out to be normal than rush around in a panic because you let a concern sit too long.
Dunno about cats, but a dog's stomach can fold in over itself causing bloating and considerable pain possibly leading to death. You should get a vets opinion, even if your pet is still pooing.
Do you care about the cats health a lot? Then go to the vet
Do you kinda care about the cat, and it is what it is? Ask the internet and wait a few days.
I've had some dead kittens because of being bloated.
Update; Thanks to everyone for their inputs. I've been to the vet as many suggested and it turned out that he just overate (probably broke into a neighbours home to feed). After a full day of rest, he went back into his usual shape. Please note that he gets enough food from us. Just like most cats, he's very food motivated ^^'
