Methods to extend the life of a cat:

1. Make the cat happy. Just like humans, cats' lifespan is also related to their mental health. If a cat is in a state of sadness, tension, and uneasiness for a long time, its lifespan will definitely not be long. On the contrary, if the cat is in a happy state for a long time, lives a happy life every day, is in a better mood, the body will be healthier, and the life span will naturally be longer.

2. Cats do not need to go out for a walk, but they need exercise. In normal times, pet owners can use cat teasing sticks to play with their cats, or do some exercises with their cats to give them some exercise. At the same time, they can also buy some interesting toys for cats to increase their exercise time at home. This can keep the cat in good health, keep the cat in shape, and prevent it from gaining weight easily.

3. Get vaccinated on time and deworm your cat regularly. Deworming can prevent infection with parasites, and vaccination is an effective way to prevent major diseases such as cat abdominal transmission and feline nasal congestion. Once these diseases are contracted, they will have serious or even irreversible effects on the health of cats.

4. Neuter the cat. Under normal circumstances, the average lifespan of an unneutered cat is 12 years, while the average lifespan of a neutered cat can be up to 14 years. In addition to extending the life of cats, neutering can also prevent them from contracting diseases such as pyometra, ovarian cysts, and testicular cancer.

Common diseases in cats:

1. Parasitic infection. Cats infected with parasites will suffer from vomiting, diarrhea, diarrhea, and weight loss.

2. Cat moss. It is often caused by fungal infection. After infection, oval-shaped ringworm spots will appear on the affected area, covered with gray scales, and the coat color will become rough.
