Garfield cats are naturally very clean-loving species, so they often lick their paws. Generally speaking, licking their paws is because they are washing their faces and hands and cleaning their hair. In this case there is no problem. But if Garfield is licking his paws and acting strangely, it’s time to investigate the cause.

If you find swelling on your Garfield cat’s limbs, it is likely to be an allergy caused by food or season. After becoming allergic, Garfield felt uncomfortable on his limbs and would keep licking them. In addition, you should also check whether you have a cough or whether there are red spots on the skin. If it is an allergy, you should seek treatment in time.

Also, if there are foreign objects on Garfield’s paws, such as nails or broken glass, Garfield will also lick its paws. If it is found that it is caused by a foreign body, its feet will become swollen. If not treated in time, infection is likely to occur, which will cause even greater trouble. If you find that Garfield’s movements have been slower recently, or his feet have become inflamed or even deformed, these are most likely caused by joint problems, which usually occur in older cats and may also occur. When coughing, it feels uncomfortable and will keep licking its paws.

Licking your paws may be a habit, or it may be caused by an infection. In fact, for cats, as long as the home is kept clean and the cat is raised indoors, there will basically be no problem with their claws. Mainly free-range cats and dogs need a lot of attention.
