Let us take a look below!

What should you pay attention to when adopting a stray cat?

1. Send to hospital for examination

If you are determined to keep the cat you found, it is best to send the cat to the hospital for a physical examination as soon as possible to see if the cat is healthy and whether there are any pathogens. You also need to find out how old the cat is and whether it is male or female. This can be done in one visit to the hospital.

2. Cleaning

When bathing your cat, be sure to use cat-specific shower gel, keep warm during the bath, and blow-dry your cat as soon as possible after the bath.

3. Deworming

If the cat has no major problems, you can ask the doctor to deworm the cat, so that you can take it home with confidence.

4. Vaccination

Make an appointment with the hospital for vaccination, and then take your cat for vaccination regularly to ensure the cat’s health.

5. Prepare daily necessities

Some people are raising cats for the first time, and they may not have anything at home. At this time, they can buy the cat’s daily necessities at the pet hospital, such as cat litter, a small amount of cat food, etc., and do emergency work first, otherwise the cat will not be able to eat it. Going to the toilet is a huge headache.

6. Isolation

If you already have cats at home, then you need to isolate the new cats for a week to let each other know each other's existence and get familiar with the smell before putting them together.

7. Feeding

If the cat found is very young, prepare goat milk powder to feed the cat. If the cat is over 3 months old, you can feed it directly with kitten food.
