You should not forget that cats tend to be curious and restless, and an open window in an upper floor could represent a risk for them.<\/p>\n To keep windows and balconies secured, there are mesh-like enclosures made of different materials. Moreover, they have various systems and are manufactured by professionals.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\u00bb1_3″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb background_color=\u00bb#FFFFFF\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb13px\u00bb background_color=\u00bb#FFFFFF\u00bb custom_padding=\u00bb32px|32px|32px|32px|true|true\u00bb border_color_all=\u00bb#0db3e5″ border_width_top=\u00bb4px\u00bb border_color_top=\u00bb#0da4e0″ global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]<\/p>\n Protecting your furniture<\/strong><\/p>\n Scratching walls, rugs and furniture, for example, is a natural and normal behavior for some cats that annoys owners. Cats scratch mainly to leave visual and olfactory marks through the glands in the fleshy parts of their front legs, as well as to remove the old outer husk of their nails and reveal newly grown ones. This results in very sharp claws, as if the cat had sharpened them. To prevent the cat from ruining furniture, the best option is getting a cat scratcher as<\/p>\n soon as possible and leave it in a visible place so the cat can use it. Please remember the cat scratches visible objects, in order to identify them as their own territory.<\/p>\n The longer a cat keeps scratching an object, the harder it will be for him to stop doing it.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=\u00bb1″ prev_background_color=\u00bb#e2e4e7″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb custom_padding=\u00bb0px||||false|false\u00bb top_divider_style=\u00bbtriangle\u00bb top_divider_height=\u00bb24px\u00bb top_divider_flip=\u00bbvertical\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=\u00bbon\u00bb gutter_width=\u00bb2″ make_equal=\u00bbon\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb max_width=\u00bb1160px\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb background_color=\u00bb#FFFFFF\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb13px\u00bb background_color=\u00bb#FFFFFF\u00bb custom_padding=\u00bb32px|32px|32px|32px|true|true\u00bb border_color_all=\u00bb#0db3e5″ border_color_top=\u00bb#0da4e0″ global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]<\/p>\n Preparing your home for a cat\u00b4s arrival can save you time and money.

The food we find in veterinary clinics is all food which has gone through a series of stages and testing required for marketing. In addition, a cat’s diet is the key to his health.<\/p>\n We recommend that you feed your cat every day at the same time.<\/p>\n The best way to make sure that your cat enjoys a balanced diet is giving him food that was specifically made for cats, whether canned, dried or semi-dried, as it will contain the essential nutritional values your cat needs.<\/p>\n You must remember that cats should always have plenty of fresh water available, so that they can quench their thirst whenever they need.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u00bbThe veterinarian\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb toggle_text_color=\u00bb#333333″ toggle_font=\u00bb|700|||||||\u00bb open=\u00bboff\u00bb]<\/p>\n One of the most important things that contribute to your cat’s good health is having a family veterinarian who can help you with every problem your pet may have.<\/p>\n This is particularly important for the cat’s first time at home.<\/p>\n Parasites<\/strong><\/p>\n Cats must be treated against internal parasites every 3 months, particularly when they are very young and have not been vaccinated yet. This will prevent your pet getting intestinal parasites.<\/p>\n Deworming is performed by administering the medication prescribed by the veterinary \u2014either cream, syrup or pills.<\/p>\n Cats also need protection against external parasites, like fleas and ticks. There is a wide variety of insecticides and acaricides, presented as pipettes, collars, sprays or pills.

However, they are no longer immune after 8-12 weeks and this is the right moment to take them to the veterinarian.<\/p>\n They are totally vulnerable to parasites.

Continue with the chest, back, thighs, forelegs, and finally the tail. This is the most sensitive part, so make sure not to press too hard. After each part, always brush their neck again. This is not necessary, but the cat may like it and it is nice that he can enjoy pleasant sensations.<\/p>\n Depending on the breed of your beloved pet, your cat can have short or long hair, which will require a different kind of brushing:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Short hair<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Long hair<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Brushing your cat helps to prevent knots and tangles, and remove dead hair.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u00bbFleas and ticks\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb toggle_text_color=\u00bb#333333″ toggle_font=\u00bb|700|||||||\u00bb open=\u00bboff\u00bb]<\/p>\n Ticks are external parasites which feed on blood. They attach to the feline’s skin, usually behind the ears, the neck or between the fingers, and they sustain themselves with their host’s blood, increasing their size.<\/p>\n It is not common but cats may have ticks, especially in hot and humid weather if your cat has access to an area with grass or bushes.<\/p>\n If your cat is often outdoors, the use of an external anti-parasite product is recommended to avoid infection. Veterinary clinics have a whole range of products that can be applied in different ways. These products protect cats from ticks and other parasites.<\/p>\n Ask your veterinarian before using any of these products.

Only in case the cat has some repeated discomfort, you should visit the veterinarian to avoid further skin irritation and worsen the problem.<\/p>\n The use of wipes or a wet piece of cotton is recommended to remove dirt in the ears. This cleaning must be done without reaching too deep inside the ear because a cat’s ears are extremely sensitive.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u00bbNail trimming\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb toggle_text_color=\u00bb#333333″ toggle_font=\u00bb|700|||||||\u00bb open=\u00bboff\u00bb]<\/p>\n Cats will get used to having their nails trimmed if this is done since they are young.

In order to get along with your cat and, above all, to guarantee his safety, certain considerations should also be taken into account.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
