Cat is very cute, feel that life is boring, come to raise a kitten quickly!
1. Travel with a cat
Cats are not good travelers, so put them in the right basket on the journey. The basket materials are wicker, wire, plastic and cardboard. The basket should be strong and well ventilated. Don't let the cat play in the back seat of the car, and don't leave the cat alone in the car on warm days - if you have to leave the cat alone, be sure to keep it well ventilated and avoid direct sunlight. If the journey is more than half an hour, stop for the cat to eat and defecate. Cats should be kept in proper baskets during travel. Keep the basket in a closed place. If the cat breaks free of the basket, you can quickly catch it. After putting the cat in the basket, check that the basket door is tight, and then take it to the car.
2. Cut your toenails
If the cat is not allowed to go out, it is necessary to form the habit of regularly cutting the cat's toenails. A little negligence, the cat's toenails grow too long, stinging the meat on the cat's paws, which will cause infection, at this time you have to seek veterinary treatment. Toenail removal (surgical removal) removes the cat's natural defense system and is not recommended. To cut live meat under the toenails.
Gently grasp the cat, one hand around its chest, the other hand to its claws. Gently press the sole of your foot to expose the seeds. Gently cut off the white tips with a nail clipper. If you are not sure how long you want to cut, cut a little bit carefully.
3. Cleaning teeth
It is best to brush the cat's teeth once a week to prevent scaling. The sooner a cat adapts to brushing its teeth, the easier the job will be. If the cat doesn't let you brush its teeth, ask your veterinarian to see if it needs scaling. Sedatives can be used for descaling. Healthy teeth and gums: cats may have tooth decay and gum disease. Feeding cats dry food can help prevent tooth scaling and gum disease.
preparation:
Don't use ordinary toothpaste when brushing your cat's teeth. Buy toothpaste for pets. Put a little bit of toothpaste on the cat's lips to get used to the taste of toothpaste. Before using the toothbrush, touch the gums with a cotton swab to make the cat adapt. When the cat is ready, brush the cat's teeth with a toothbrush, pet toothpaste or saline solution. You may need help holding the cat down.
4. Bath the cat
Maybe sometimes you need to bathe cats. Most cats don't like bathing, so you may need help. After washing, dry the cat quickly with a large warm towel.
Prepare the following items before you start:
Fill a plastic bowl with warm water, about 10 cm (4 inches) deep. Try the water temperature. The cat will struggle to hold on to it. Squeeze a little cat into the water with shampoo. Pour water into the cat's body with a cup and rub it down from the neck. Clean the cat with enough warm water, then wrap it in a large towel and dry it.
Blow dry with a hair dryer after a bath unless the cat is afraid of it.
5. Bedpan and its contents
There are two types of bedpan - covered and open. The advantage of a covered bedpan is that if the kitten is shy, it will prefer a secluded space. If the kitten doesn't use the bedpan, it may be because it doesn't like the smell of the litter. But you have a lot of solutions. Before filling the basin with sundries, the paper or interlining cloth should be cushioned.
6. How to pick up a cat?
Be careful when approaching the cat. Don't reach for it suddenly. It's better to let the cat approach you. First touch it gently and let it get used to stroking and then pick it up. Hold the cat with one hand in front of its chest and hold the back of its body with the other hand, and let its chest rest on the palm.
Gently lift the cat up and slowly close to your chest. Pay attention to holding the back of the body. Most cats are happy to hold in their arms, but they have to lie comfortably. But cats usually don't like to be held too long. If you touch the cat while you hold it, it will remove the alert. Once the cat starts to resist, put it down. If you force a cat against his will, you will be scratched or bitten by it. Hands are cradle like; hold the cat gently and lift the whole body. Hold in your arms; place the cat's claws in the bend of the arm. Put on the shoulder; the cat's claws are on the shoulders and hold up the back of the body.
7. Urination training
Place the bedpan in a quiet corner, and when the kitten appears to be using it - squat down, raise its tail - put the cat in the bedpan. Kittens instinctively cover their feces with straw mats. If the kitten is excreting outside the basin, don't let it smell hard - the smell there will make it feel like it's a place to defecate, and it will be the same next time. Beginners: kittens can learn to use bedpan when they are around.
8. How to use the medicine
Cats can be as troublesome as children when they take medicine. At this time, you need help holding the cat, and you need to use force on time, but don't be too rough. It's not usually useful to collect medicine in food, because cats can easily find them. Ask an assistant to hold the cat down and you hold it firmly on to its head. Be careful not to mess up its beard. Grasp the cat's head with your forefinger and thumb, and gently open the cat's mouth with the other hand. Put the pills at the root of your tongue, close the cat's mouth, and touch your throat. See if the pills are swallowed. Injection gun: can "shoot" the pill into the back of the cat's throat. Injection drug: inject liquid medicine with syringe, and squeeze it in slowly along the side of mouth.
9. Guys who eat indoor plants
Cats can be enemies of indoor plants. It may chew off leaves and flowers, dig up the soil, and use flowerpots as toilets. There are two ways: prepare a pot of grass for cats, or spray diluted lemon juice on indoor plants, because cats hate lemon juice. In order not to let the cat gouge out the plant, can cover a shallow net on the soil. Problem: if a cat is locked indoors and has no access to plants, it may bite your plants. Method: in order not to let the cat bite the indoor plants, often sprinkle some diluted lemon juice on the leaves. Cats hate lemon juice.
10. Law of life
Training a cat is not like training a dog, but it can cultivate a certain law of life for the cat, making it easier and making the cat happier. It's important to let the cat know its name. Call it before feeding and sleeping, so that it can get familiar with it as soon as possible. Grooming: groom the long haired cat at the same time every day - feeding is the best time. Comb the short line cats once a week at a fixed time. Feeding: the time and place of feeding the cat remain unchanged. Play: play is very important for the growth of cats, especially for cats who are used to indoor life. Spend 10 to 15 minutes playing with cats every day.
