Polyphagia in Cats
 
Polyphagia is the name of a medical condition in which a cat increases its food intake to the extent that it appears ravenous most or all of the time. It is also normally associated with polydipsia as well as polyuria.
 
This condition can be caused by different circumstances, and it is important to find out whether the cat’s increased food consumption is due to a psychological condition, or to a disease. Should the reason be a psychological problem, then it is likely that the cat has developed a learned behavior, which could lead to obesity.
