Cat Care Tips For Beginners
Pet Care
oi-Amrisha
Cats
are
one
of
the
most
preferred
pets
after
dogs.
While
dogs
are
huge
and
many
people
are
also
scared
of
the
tempered
dogs,
cats
are
a
calm
pet
that
can
be
easily
handled
and
cared
for.
When
you
buy
or
adopt
a
stray
kitten,
you
have
to
be
careful
as
they
are
sensitive.
If
you
are
a
beginner
and
wish
to
know
about
cat
care,
here
are
few
basic
tips
for
you.
Cat care tips for beginners:
- The young kitten needs twice the amount of nutrition when compared to an adult cat. Although they need more nutrition, this doesn't mean that you should over-feed them. After 5-6 weeks, start giving 4 meals every day.
- Do not give in much amount. Feeding small amount of meals at short intervals will balance the quota of nutritional supply and also fill the stomach of the cute little kitten.
- Never feed dog food to your kitten or even cat. Taurine is a nutrient that cats need to prevent heart diseases and blur vision. Dog food doesn't contain taurine. To give proper nutrition, only give cat food.
- After 8-10 months, do not feed just milk and cat food. Make the kitten used to some home food like boiled rice, yogurt and milk. This will make it easy for the cat to develop a taste towards home food.
- Do not need to bathe the kitten regularly. When the cat fur or coat starts smelling, then you can bathe the kitten with cold water. Hot water can damage the fur and also irritate the skin of the cat.
- Regularly brush the coat of the kitten. This will shed dead hair, remove germs and bacteria and also make it easy to handle the fur of the kitten.
- Sleep with your kitten on your bed for few days but do not make this a habit. Once they get used to sleeping with you, they will always try to get your attention.
- Go out and play with your kitten. Physical activities will help be good for the growth and development of the kitten.
- Make the kitten used to the eating, sleeping and potty place. Take them there regularly and this will make them learn.
- If you let your cat bat a paw on you then they will take it for granted. Draw a line of acceptable behaviour and be little strict. Cats are very stubborn and caring for them can be difficult in later stages if you do not become strict.
- Kittens need vaccinations. Consult your vet and do not miss a single vaccine.
- With the growing age, you have to wash the teeth, clean ears and cut nails of the cat. Paws are very prone spots for germs and bacteria to attack. This can cause infection and also spread mud on the house floor. Cut the nails and keep them clean.
