That could be from normal seasonal (spring) weight loss. Are there any other
symptoms?
When I see unexplained weight loss I do take mine to the vet just to be safe. There
have been a few false alarms, but also times when something serious was going on
(adrenal disease, pancreatitis). To me, it's better safe than sorry. Just because I see
nothing alarming in your post doesn't mean there isn't something going on.
All the best,
