Cat Care in Bangladesh: A Complete Guide
Cat care comes from the heart of every pet owner. Cats are known as highly active and loving creatures. Every cat friend discovers his or her cat as a human-like friend. Their happy faces and waggling of their tails, playing with you will amaze you. I am not a Cat expert, although I can share my experience with you, for the well-being of your pet friend. After reading my blogs cat care will be easier for all pet parents.
Know about your New Cat
Every cat is different. Before bringing a new cat, you need to learn about the new cat as much as possible to cater to their needs. When you pick up a new cat from a breeder, seller, or shelter, learn about its breed, food habits, health issues, behavior with other cats, history of trauma, etc. This information will help you to add a cat to your family easily.
Feed your cat healthy food
Feed your cat a healthy diet. You can feed them homemade cat food, as Bangladeshi cats get used to this food. If you want you can feed them dry and wet cat food. Cats with certain health conditions may require you to eat special food your vet recommends.
If you adopt an older cat, consider feeding them liquid or canned food. Older cats with dental issues may find wet cat food easier to eat. Your cat’s food and water bowl should always be kept clean.
If you want to switch their food, slowly add the new food. As they get used to new food, increase the amount of their new food. After a few days, you can now feed them only the new food.
Ensure cat safety at your home
At your home, you must hide electrical cords and breakable items. You should close toilet lids, and block access to any electronic appliances. Your surroundings must be cat-proof. You should keep your balcony door closed. Ensure that there is no indoor plant that is toxic for your cat. Some plants poisonous to cats include aloe vera, Tulips, Snake plants, Autumn Crocus, Azaleas, Pothos, snake plants, etc.
Train your cat to use the Litter box and accessories
To ensure the cat’s hygiene, a litter box is essential. Additionally, it keeps your house clean and smell-free. If you have more than one kitty, buy a litter box for each cat. Initially, you need to follow their body’s gestures to sit them in the litter box.
Your litter box has low walls for easy entry, including a litter mat and scooper for cleaning and maintenance.
Bath your cat occasionally
Most cats don’t like to get wet and don’t enjoy taking baths. You can gently rub their body with a damp cloth ( sponge bath). To bathe your cat pour a small amount of shampoo onto their body, rub it gently, until it leathers. Then pour water onto their body, ensuring that all shampoo is rinsed out.
Trim their claws
Regularly trim your cat’s claws to avoid paw problems. Regular trimming keeps your cat’s claws from getting too long. If you trim your cat’s nails regularly your furniture, carpets, and skins get saved from its scratches.
Visit your Vet
As a pet owner, it’s crucial to visit your Vet for a health check-up. Your vet will suggest you about all the vaccinations for your cat’s healthy and long life. If the cat has any health issues, must be shared with your vet. You can also tailor food and wellness plans from your Vet. Annually, you should visit your Vet to ensure your cat is healthy.
Brush your cat’s hair
Brushing your cat’s hair is also a part of cat care. If your cat has long hair, regular brushing of its hair will prevent mats and tangles. Long-haired cats may also need frequent bathing. On the other hand, short-haired cats may require less bathing and brushing.
Play and make bonds with your cat
Playing with your cat is an important part of cat care. This is a great way to bond with your cat. It’s also necessary for their healthy upbringing and sound sleep. You can buy cat toys to help stimulate its brain. The cat usually enjoys playing with toys and enjoys the playtime experience.
