Is the cat afraid of heatstroke in hot and hot weather in summer?
Cats may get heatstroke in summer, but that doesn't mean they won't get heatstroke. In summer, if cats don't drink enough water, the ground is too wet, or the temperature is high, the air pressure is low and there is no wind in hot summer weather, or they are exposed to the hot sun, cats will suffer from heatstroke in a stuffy environment with poor ventilation.
In summer, the symptoms of heatstroke in cats are 1. Shortness of breath. In severe cases, cats will stick out their tongues and pant like dogs.
2. The body temperature rises to 4 1 ~ 42 degrees Celsius. If the cat can't lower its body temperature quickly, it may cause serious brain damage and even death.
3. The heartbeat is accelerated, the nose is red but dry and hot, and the conjunctiva and oral mucosa are flushed.
4. In severe cases, there will be dehydration symptoms, foaming at the mouth and purple mucosa.
When the cat has symptoms of convulsion and coma, it will be life-threatening. You should see a doctor at once!
How do cats prevent heatstroke in summer? 1. Put the cat's nest in a cool and ventilated place, never in the sun or scorching sun.
2. Prepare enough fresh water for cats every day, so that cats can drink it at any time.
Don't take the cat out when the weather is sultry.
4. You can properly trim the hair on the cat's foot pad and abdomen, because this part is covered with sweat glands, which can better help the cat cool down.
5. Prepare an ice pad for the cat. Lying on it can effectively cool down.
6. Feed the cat with wet food.
