What to do when a Ragdoll cat is in heat:

1. If the cat owner wants to breed the cat, he can choose a mating partner when the cat is in heat. Finding a mating partner for your cat can solve the cat's estrus problem, but you must be prepared to take care of the mother cat and her kittens after mating.

2. If the cat owner does not need to breed the cat, he can feed the cat an anti-estrus powder to suppress estrus. The cat can be fed when it starts to go into estrus. It should be taken continuously for 7-10 days, and it cannot be eaten on an empty stomach.

3. If the cat is very uncomfortable during the estrus stage, you can help the cat divert its attention and give the cat some toys to play with. You can also provide the cat with some fresh food and play brisk music to divert the cat's attention. .

4. Soothe the cat’s mood. If the cat is anxious and uneasy, you can stay with the cat. You can gently stroke the cat's back with your hands to make the cat feel the owner's company and caress.

5. Close doors and windows to prevent cats from getting lost. Cats in estrus can easily escape, so cat owners should pay attention to closing doors and windows to prevent the cat from getting lost.

6. If you don’t want your cat to suffer from the pain of estrus anymore and there is no need for breeding, you can sterilize your cat at the end of its estrus.

7. If a cat is in heat, you can try a heating pad to relieve it. Prepare a self-heating soft pad for the cat (a hot water bottle or a warm baby across a towel can be used), or a cat nest that can adjust the temperature. Warmth can relieve the anxiety of the cat in heat and calm it down.

8. Keep the litter box clean during the estrus period. Ragdoll cats will use urine to attract other cats during the estrus period. When they urinate everywhere, they should immediately use a deodorant containing biological enzymes to remove the smell; keep the litter box clean and encourage cats to use the litter box instead of everywhere. Make random marks. At the same time, it prevents cats from escaping and getting lost.

Benefits of cat sterilization:

1. It can reduce the occurrence of physiological diseases in cats. For male cats, it can avoid problems such as testicular tumors and prostate hypertrophy caused by estrus. For female cats, problems such as ovarian cysts, pyometra, and uterine fibroids can be avoided.

2. Cats get rid of the tension, irritability, loss of appetite and other emotions caused by estrus. For male cats, they will also get rid of the habit of spraying urine to vent their anger, and their aggression will be reduced; while female cats will no longer make noises.

3. The cat’s personality has become quiet and docile, which saves the owner a lot of trouble.
