Now, the team of cat shovelers is growing stronger and stronger, and has attracted many new cat shovelers to join.
So how to choose a healthy cat at a pet store has become a science, because once you buy the wrong cat, it will not waste money, but it will hurt your relationship. Why do you say so? Can you not be sad when you see a cat die?
Below I will teach you some tips when buying cats.
1. Don't buy cats that are less than 3 months old. When we go to pet stores, merchants often recommend cats that are about 2 months old. Some novice cat owners don't understand and think that the younger the cat, the easier it is to develop feelings for themselves. In fact, this is not the case. Cats under 3 months have poor resistance and are prone to illness, and have not received all the vaccines.
It is recommended to buy cats that are about 3 months old. At this time, the kittens have almost learned to use cat litter, so there is no need to worry.
2. Pay attention to the price
When buying cats, you should compare and understand the market conditions. If a cat with a high price is usually very low, you must pay attention. There may be problems with the cat's health, either the breed is impure or the weekly cat.
3. Don't buy cats with swollen belly
If you find that the kitten's belly is swollen, then most of them have health problems. A normal cat has a uniform figure.
Generally, there are two situations in which the abdomen of a kitten are enlarged: cats are transmitted through the abdomen and parasites.
Cat ventral transmission is a well-known cat killer. It is not only difficult to treat, but also has a very low survival rate.
4. It is actually very common for cats to lose hair, but if you find that there are large areas of hair loss on the kitten, then most of them have skin diseases.
In addition, check whether there are swelling and small bumps on the cat's skin. If so, it is likely to be a skin disease.
Treatment of skin diseases in cats is very troublesome and can also be transmitted to people and is prone to recurrence.
5. Look at the eyes and nose of a cat
The nose of a healthy cat is generally a little wet and will not have runny noses. The eyes are very clean.
And those sick kittens will experience runny nose and tears and hunger. Don’t buy such cats.
6. When buying a cat, you can observe the cat's butt. If the cat's butt is dirty and accompanied by a very unpleasant smell, and you can even see yellow marks on the butt, it is best not to buy it, because this kind of situation occurs on the kitten, usually because they have diarrhea or diarrhea, which means there is a problem with the cat's health.
In addition to the situations that occur on the cats above, netizens should also pay attention to their own words and deeds.
It is best not to say the following to the pet store owner: For example, falling in love with this cat at first sight, or exposing that it is your first time raising a cat. Once you show that you have a fancy to a cat or reveal that you are a novice, you will either be slaughtered or cheated.
Okay, I hope that those novice poop shovelers can buy their favorite healthy cats. If you are really worried, you can take them to the pet hospital for a physical examination after buying them and confirm their physical condition.
