Mistakes In Raising Cats
Cat owners know that cats are greedy, and improper feeding habits can lead to various problems such as overweight, malnutrition, and picky eaters. Many pet owners will inevitably make small mistakes in the breeding process. Here are six mistakes in cat breeding to see which mistakes you make.
1. Feed the cat a lot of nutrients
You must not overfeed your cat with protein. Usually, fresh meat, eggs, and milk can provide a lot of protein. In addition, the cat food that cats usually eat also contains protein. It is best to choose cat food with a protein content of about 37% to 40%, so that it can meet the cat's daily needs!
2. Feeding human food
Human food or taste is heavy, cats cannot digest it normally, and sometimes they may get sick from ingesting too much oil and salt. For the health of cats, it is recommended that pet owners should give cats mainly cat food. Cat food is scientifically matched and can fully meet the needs of cats.
3. Bath your cat frequently
The beautiful hair of cats is due to the protection of oils secreted by the skin layer. If you bathe your cat too often, it will destroy its skin oils. Without the protection of oils, a cat's skin can become dry and inflexible, leading to skin disease or hair loss. It is best to bathe your cat once a month.
4. do not remember to seal the window
Cats are curious and are often attracted by things outside the window, such as butterflies, birds, etc. Cats will run to the windows and even try to catch them, especially on high floors. If the cat jumps out, the consequences can be imagined. So whether it is a tall building or a low building, it is best to seal the windows to avoid accidents.
5. Forgot to clip your cat’s nails
Like dogs, cats have sharp nails. But the difference is that the dog needs to be taken out for a walk, and the claws can be smoothed during the walk, but the cat can't, the cat can only let the pet owner cut it. If you don't cut your cat's nails for a long time, it will not only hurt itself, but also the owner, so pets should trim the cat's nails regularly.
6. Shave the cat
Many owners shave their cats' fur in the summer to cool off their cats. But in fact, the temperature of cats is different from that of us, and the skin of cats is also very thin. If the cat's hair is shaved, the cat's skin will directly contact the floor and the air, and many cats will suffer from skin diseases or cause skin sensitivity and redness.
