Raising a cat is like raising a child. Before you decide to raise a kitten, you must be mentally prepared to raise it for a lifetime. After all, it is a fresh little life.

For novices who are planning to raise a cat, they should learn more about the precautions for raising a cat. It is recommended to raise a healthy cat that is more than two months old. A two-month-old cat will basically eat cat food by itself. If you pick up a cat for the first time, the cat will be timid. , you need to use a suitable tool to contain the cat, such as a cat bag or a small iron cage. Remember to put an air-permeable cloth cover on the outer cover to prevent the cat from being frightened by the unfamiliar environment.

Don't be in a hurry to hug and kiss your cat after it gets home. Let it move freely and let it get familiar with the environment. Most cats are slow to warm up, so you have to do it step by step. If you scare them, they may claw at people. In order not to leave bloody claw marks on hands and faces, novice poop shovelers should be cautious.

Observe whether the cat's body is dirty and has fleas, and bathe it appropriately.

Cats under 3 months old have low resistance, so it is best not to bathe them. You can use wet wipes or dry cleaning powder. If you want to take a bath, keep warm and blow dry with hot air to prevent colds.

Kittens between 1 and 6 months old weigh only 50% to 75% of adult cats, and their physiological functions are not yet fully developed, so they need easily digestible food and more care. It is recommended to choose some soft food, wet food or freeze-dried food for them to ensure the taste while providing them with more nutrients and allowing them to grow faster.

The cat litter box is divided into closed type and open type. The closed type has a small baffle. The advantage is that it can isolate the smell of cat feces and urine and prevent the cat litter from being taken out. However, it is not suitable for small cats. The open type has no baffle. It's just a basin with a pedal around it to make it easier for cats to get in and out. The disadvantage is that it smells bad. According to the personal situation of the shit shoveling officer, everyone can make their own choice.

Cats like to lick their paws and sleep in the bed with you. It is also very important to choose cat litter, otherwise the bacteria from the cat will be transferred to you. There are many kinds of cat litter on the market, including bentonite, tofu litter, crystal cat litter, pine cat litter... I personally recommend tofu cat litter, which has less dust, strong water absorption, good clumping, and can be flushed directly from the toilet. I don’t recommend bentonite cat litter. Although it’s cheap, every time you shovel shit and change the litter, dust flies everywhere, making your home dirty, and it’s also very harmful to your skin.
