In this increasingly cold weather, what heating devices are everyone using to keep their cats warm? Any good product recommendations?
However, veterinarian Xiao Ming would like to give a friendly reminder that you must pay attention to safe use, otherwise it will not only waste electricity, but also may waste cats. Let’s take a look at the little fun fact shared by this netizen below.
This poop scraper has a cat at home. Like all cats, it is very afraid of the cold. The weather has already reached its coldest time, so the poop scraper took out a heater to help the cat keep warm. This is a perfect opportunity to please the cat.
On this day, the cat huddled next to the heater as usual, but after a while, the scavenger smelled a burning smell. At first, he thought that the wiring was broken somewhere. After checking, he found that everything was normal. But after taking a look at the cat, he was speechless: This is going to kill the cat! It's all burnt, why keep warm? You are really brave!
I saw that two patches of hair on the cat's body were burned to varying degrees, and its skin was almost burned. However, the cat was quite calm. Does this mean that it wants temperature rather than life? Sure enough, cats are afraid of cold stone hammers!
Veterinarian Xiao Ming still feels very sorry for this cat. It just wants to keep warm, so why did the cat’s fur grow too long?
However, when seeing the cat in this story, veterinarian Xiao Ming thought that one year he had exactly the same experience as this cat! When I used the heater, the quilt and sheets were burnt, and the room smelled of burning. I was still celebrating Chinese New Year at that time~ But it was mainly because I was young and didn't know how to use a heater!
This tells all parents that they must educate their children on how to use electrical appliances and ensure safety, otherwise there will still be great safety risks. There are also some elderly people who live alone. They sometimes become confused as they get older. Children should also always pay attention to the elderly. If conditions permit, you can install surveillance cameras in the elderly's homes to know the elderly's condition in real time, which can also reduce some worries.
Popular science from veterinarian Xiao Ming: When choosing heating equipment for pets, such as heaters or electric blankets, you should look for quality products, otherwise there will be great safety risks.
When using a heater for pets, you should also pay attention to keeping the distance between the pet and the heater. After all, there have been many incidents of pet hair being burned. In addition, if you turn on the air conditioner for your pet, you should be careful not to let the pet go in and out of an environment with a large temperature difference, otherwise they will get sick from catching a cold.
