Your Cat's Health In The Cold




Your cat's hair may keep it warm, but the cold still poses serious risks. Just try to picture how you'd feel if you had to stay out in the cold for any length of time, even if you were wearing your winter coat. Just like humans, cats may suffer from hypothermia if left outside in the cold for too long. Hypothermia may be fatal in extreme cases.

Insufficient heat may be caused by a number of factors, and your cat may be feeling the chill. In the event that you usually allow your cat outside, remember that you'll need to bring him or her back inside more quickly now that winter has arrived. This is particularly the case for kittens, cats with short hair, and cats who are ill or recuperating from illness. Cat owners should remember that they should never release an indoor-only feline into the outdoors when damp. Even if you're indoors, you should dry your cat off right away if you give it a bath or if it gets wet in chilly weather. Make sure there is no way for your cat to escape inside; if he or she escapes and can't figure out how to get back in, hypothermia might set in by the time you discover anything is wrong.

If your body temperature goes too low, you may develop a medical condition known as hypothermia. In order to preserve the health of the critical organs, the body will shut down less important functions, including the circulation to the extremities, causing frostbite. Your cat will be shaking, moving slowly, and breathing shallowly if it is suffering from hypothermia. Your cat will eventually grow unresponsive and pass away. Therefore, make sure your pet is nice and toasty.

Warming a pet too soon, though, might do more harm than good. Please don't give in to the temptation to soak your pet in hot water. Take it easy and progressively heat up the room. Do your best to keep your pet toasty by bringing it into a toasty environment and covering it with blankets. For quick drying, you may even toss a towel into the dryer. You may also use washcloths or warm water bottles. You may use a hair dryer, but only if you keep it at a safe distance from your cat and turn down the heat. If your cat is starting to feel warmer, a warm bath might be quite beneficial; but if you want to take him or her outdoors again to go to the clinic, you should probably avoid doing so after the bath.

Always consult your veterinarian first. No matter how careful you are, your pet may get away from you at some point. In the event that your cat exhibits signs of hypothermia, you may utilize these warming measures to preserve your pet's life, and your veterinarian will be able to advise you on the next steps to take.
