Cats are prone to extreme cold. Even when they’re indoors, they are at risk of feeling very cold and uncomfortable when adequate preparations are not made. The cold is more cruel to senior pets, thus they will benefit from extra care and attention as temperatures drop during winter.
Here are ways to keep your furball warm and healthy during winter:
- If your cat is used to spending time outdoors, make sure that he has a good outdoor shelter where he can go when it gets too cold.
- Increase your cat’s food intake a little bit so his body could have more fat and his coat bulked up to help protect from colder temperature.
- If you have a fireplace, make sure it has a screen or barrier to protect your cat from embers, flames, and soot.
If you have concerns about your pet’s health and/or behavior, call your animal clinic Lewisville, TX as soon as possible.
