More and more people are raising cats. I hope that everyone who raises cats does so because they really like them. They should take good care of their cats instead of abandoning them halfway. In fact, raising a cat is not that simple, but it is not that difficult either. Today, the editor has compiled a guide to raising and caring for cats. It is simple and practical. Come and learn it~
1. What should you eat?
In fact, cats love to eat meat. They should be fed nutritious cat food as the staple food. They can be fed some cooked beef, chicken, quail meat and boneless fish. You should also buy some chicken pellets cat snacks as reward food for cats. These can all provide extra nutrition for cats.
However, you should be careful not to feed your cat too much food that provides additional nutritional supplements. You should only feed your cat an appropriate amount to prevent your cat from eating too much of these foods and refusing to eat cat food, which would lead to nutritional imbalance in your cat.
2. What not to eat
There are many foods that cats are prohibited from eating, and you cannot add salt or other seasonings to anything you feed your cat. The cat food you choose for your cat also needs to be low-salt. Also, you cannot feed your cat raw meat, which is likely to carry parasites, which will seriously affect the cat's health.In addition, cats have fragile stomachs, and eating raw meat will put a serious burden on their stomachs.
Foods that cats cannot eat: chocolate, grapes, raisins, onions, cherries, etc.
3. Daily care
The most important thing in daily cat care is to keep the home and the cat bed clean. The second most important thing is the cat's hair. The owner needs to spend about 10 minutes every day combing the cat's hair. This will not only make the cat's hair smoother, but also promote the cat's blood circulation.
The last issue is about bathing cats. Cats should not be bathed frequently. It is recommended to bathe cats once every 1 to 3 months. Cats love cleanliness, and frequent bathing will only harm their health.
4. Medical treatment
Cats should be vaccinated when they are 9 to 10 weeks old. The vaccines they are vaccinated with are cat triple vaccine and rabies vaccine. Other vaccines are generally given according to the doctor's advice. Starting from the first year of vaccination, cats should be vaccinated every year thereafter. Only in this way can cats have the conditions for healthy growth.
It is recommended to take cats for a physical examination every year, so that the owner can rest assured, and many inconspicuous diseases can be discovered in advance and treated in time. Only in this way can scientifically raising cats prolong their lifespan.
5. Oral problems
Oral care for cats is very important, but many cat owners ignore this issue. Cats' teeth are the same as ours. If they are not cleaned properly, they will suffer from periodontitis. Therefore, you must clean your cat's mouth and teeth regularly to prevent the cat's teeth from falling off and being damaged easily.
6. Choose the right cat food
The most important thing when raising a cat is to choose the right cat food, because most of the cat's nutrition comes from the cat's staple food. If the cat owner buys cat food that is not nutritious enough or nutritionally unbalanced, it will lead to malnutrition and other physical problems in the cat. It is necessary to choose cat food with a higher meat content and a balanced combination to meet the cat's needs.
