What is the normal body temperature of a cat?
It is normal for a cat’s normal body temperature to be between 38-39.5 degrees. Usually when taking a cat's temperature, you should measure the temperature at the anus, because this will be more accurate. When inserting the cat's anus, pay attention to being parallel to the cat's body. Take it out after a minute and take a reading, or measure the temperature on the inside of the cat's hind legs, but The body temperature measured this way will be one degree lower than the cat's actual body temperature.
Tip:
Usually the body temperature of kittens will be higher than that of adult cats. The body temperature of cats will also be higher after exercise, so measure the cat carefully. After taking the body temperature, if the body temperature is low, you should pay attention to keeping the cat warm. If the body temperature is higher than 39.5 degrees, it means the cat has a fever. It is recommended to send the cat to the pet hospital immediately for examination and treatment.
