2. Attention should be paid to the care of Colette cats

1. Pay attention to suitable foods

Changes in the amount of exercise will cause changes in the digestion and absorption capacity of the intestines and the filtration and detoxification functions of the liver and kidneys. You should pay more attention to the hardness of food suitable for cats, supplement calcium, iron, vitamins and other trace elements in appropriate amounts, and replace foods with different flavors. .

2. Oral and eye care

Cat teeth also require special care and attention. You should brush your pet cat's teeth regularly to keep the oral cavity clean to reduce the invasion of bacteria caused by gum inflammation. Frequently use damp cotton to remove excess eye mucus and clean the skin around the eyes.

3. Joints and cat ears

The cat’s inner ear canal should be checked regularly; joint pain is a common problem in elderly pets. If the cat cannot move regularly, you can gently massage its muscles or move its limb joints while it is resting.

4. Colette Cat Paws

Cat claws are tools used by cats to catch mice, climb and defend themselves. If the owner keeps a cat as a companion animal, the cat's claws should be trimmed regularly to avoid scratching people and damaging clothes, furniture, floors, etc.

Cat claws should be trimmed from an early age, once every month or so. If a cat is kept to hunt mice, there is no need to trim its paws.

5. Pay attention to the bathing temperature

When taking a bath, the water temperature should not be too low or too high, so as not to burn your hands; the shower gel used should not be too irritating to avoid irritating the skin; the coat of Colette cats should be combed before taking a bath to prevent tangles.

Before taking a bath, you should prepare bathing utensils, such as a bathtub, bath towel, detergent, comb (preferably sparse at one end and dense at the other), brushes, etc.

6. Keep warm to prevent colds

Bathing should be done quickly, and the bath should be completed in the shortest possible time; after washing, the hair should be dried immediately with a bath towel. When the temperature is low, it is best to cover it with a special towel or quilt or other thermal insulation products to prevent colds.

7. Tongue grooming method

The tongue of the Corset cat is rough and has special barbed tongue papillae, which is like a comb. The Corset cat often uses tongue licking to comb its coat. Use paws to comb parts that cannot be licked, such as the head, shoulders, back, neck, etc.

Even if the cat can clean up after itself, it is still best to groom the cat once a day.

8. Dangers of hair ball obstruction

Cats love to be clean, so they always comb their hair. However, during the combing process, the combed hair will be swallowed directly into their stomachs. Some cats cannot spit it out or excrete it in time, and they will form hair balls and stay in the stomach, causing blockage. In this case, it will affect the cat's appetite and may be life-threatening in severe cases.
