Cats are animals that like freedom and climbing. Nowadays, many cats live in cities. They do not have the freedom to jump as they want in the wild. Living in high-rise buildings in cities has many safety hazards, and these are completely unknown to cats. I don’t know! Preventing micro-infectious diseases is what a qualified cat scavenger needs to do. If there is any hidden danger, we should eliminate it so that the cat will not have any accidents.

These safety and health risks that should be eliminated when raising cats

1. Free-range breeding (especially free-range breeding in cities)

Potential safety hazards of free-range breeding: One netizen put it well: cats are poisoned by rats after eating rat poison, are caught and become dinner, children hit them naughtyly, get stuck and cannot get out, and get into car accidents. Here are a few more: being caught by someone who wanted to raise him, being seduced by something and getting lost in a distant place, getting injured in a fight with a cat or dog, disappearing for unknown reasons, and the female cat coming back with a pregnant belly.

Free-range breeding is like a child "going to the street" alone (the range of human activities is necessarily larger than that of a cat, so the metaphor here is going to the street, not downstairs) to play. Why do many parents in the city worry about their children going out on the street by themselves? Are you relieved if you switch to a cat? (This corresponds to rural free-range breeding. Children in the countryside really have more freedom than children in the city, because the villagers know each other well, there are few strangers, and the children do not run around so much. Worry.)

I don’t want to say anything about things that I really don’t have the conditions for, such as raising cats that are open to the market. There are inevitably many unavoidable choices in life, so why not cats? But there are obviously conditions, but because of “seeing it uncomfortable at home” and “picking at the door” , "screaming hard", "feeling that it is unhappy" and other reasons for letting it out when you want to go out. What is the difference between you and a doting parent who is obedient and obedient when the child cries?

2. Unsealing the balcony

Potential safety hazards of leaving the balcony unsealed: jumping off the building.

One of the reasons: The cat was standing on the window edge in a daze, and suddenly a bird flew by. It instinctively caught it and jumped off the building.

There are always people who say how smart their cat is, that it is not stupid, and that it won’t jump off buildings. Children are not stupid, they are smarter, so why do they fall down accidentally? Adults are not stupid, so why do adults also fall down accidentally? Do you understand why it is called a "safety hazard"?

For example: The media always tells you to guard against theft, so you buy a security door and lock it every day. This is called eliminating the security risk of theft. The gas rubber pipe is aging. The gas inspector asked you to replace it in time. If you replace it, this is called drainage.Eliminate safety hazards from gas leaks. Maybe if you don’t replace the security door or the rubber pipe, there will be no theft, and there will be no gas leakage. However, these are all "probable" to happen. Why do we have to be upset only after an accident occurs instead of eliminating these safety hazards in advance?

Why hasn’t seeing so many cases of cats jumping off buildings not alarmed you who don’t have your balcony sealed? Do you really regard it as your family? Do you respect it as a life? Or do you just treat it as a toy to relieve boredom?

3. No sterilization

Health risks of not neutering: pyometra, mastitis in female cats, urinary diseases in male cats.

There are a lot of disadvantages of not being sterilized, such as peeing and peeing, shouting and running around (ahem, for the sake of rhyme, I should run away when the door opens), but there are still people who don't sterilize for various reasons, what? Giving birth to a whole litter of cats would be painful, and sterilization would be risky.

In addition to those who are afraid of risks and cats, the other two theories are that cats are judged by humans, and humans also have DINKs. What’s wrong if you don’t have children? Besides, having children requires age-appropriate childbearing and eugenics and eugenics, right? You let What is the difference between pregnant and giving birth to an 8-month-old kitten that has just come into heat, and giving birth to a young girl who has just become pregnant?

Another way to put it is, if your child is sick and needs surgery, are you afraid that he will be in pain, so you won’t give it to him? Could it be that if your child has a fever, give him a sling bottle and cry, but you are worried that he will cry so much that you won’t give him the surgery? Besides, there are risks, The risk of sterilization with gas anesthesia is very small. You must know that everything has risks. There are cases of allergies that cannot be cured by vaccination, and people can be stoned to death while walking. Do you want to stop going out on the street because of this? It depends on how you understand it.

4. No isolation (new member of a multi-cat family)

Health hazards of not isolating: New cats carry diseases, and indigenous people are infected.

I saw a few posts about tragedies caused by the failure to isolate new cats when they arrived. An aboriginal died, a group of aboriginals were infected, etc.

Cats are different from people. They cannot tell their owners that they have cat plague, ringworm, etc. They can only be isolated and observed for a period of time, which is good for both humans and cats. This is mostly a matter of awareness. Most cat owners and cat slaves still know how to isolate. But one post weirdly said that there is no ability to isolate. I don’t understand this. It’s just a cage or a cat house. Is it that difficult?
