How to measure a cat’s body temperature? The normal body temperature of a cat is generally maintained at 38-39°C. It feels warmer than a human being when held in your arms. So if the cat is not energetic and wants to measure whether it has a fever, how should it be measured?

When measuring a cat's temperature, first tie a thin linen thread to the rectal thermometer and tie a small iron clip to the other end. After disinfecting with alcohol cotton, apply a little liquid paraffin or vegetable oil on the rectal thermometer, swing the mercury column below 35°C, and fix the cat. In fact, if the cat is more obedient, just hold it on your lap. With the other hand, slowly insert the rectal thermometer 2-3 cm into the cat's anus, then wrap the fine linen around the base of the cat's tail, and clamp the iron clip on the back hair of the cat's buttocks. After inserting the rectal thermometer for about 3-5 minutes, you can take it out and check the temperature. However, if the fluctuation exceeds 1℃, you should consider whether the cat has a disease. If you cannot judge by yourself, you should ask a veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. But if the cat objects strongly, it can also be treated under the armpits or at the base of the hind legs.
