Recently, I have seen many long-haired cat owners complaining that their cat's excrement is always stuck to their hair, which is not only dirty, but also affects the health of the cat. Today I will share with you a few improvement methods I have summarized from practice.
First, long-haired cats are prone to constipation and intestinal problems.
This is the primary reason why hair is contaminated with feces.
Therefore, we need to start with the cat's diet.
To replenish the cat's moisture, you can feed boiled water or change the water regularly to keep the water hydrator clean and hygienic.
In addition, feed more vegetables containing cellulose, meat and internal organs rich in protein, and dairy products rich in probiotics, etc.
These dietary ingredients help cats to have a healthy intestines and reduce the occurrence of constipation.
If the cat is seriously constipated, you can add olive oil or other cooking oils in moderation, which can moisten the intestines.
Secondly, hair combing and hair cleaning must be done once a week.
The hair is contaminated with feces because cats have too long hair, and many short-haired cats do not have long-haired cats.
If we keep the cat's hair at the right length, we can reduce the occurrence of this problem.
Long-haired cats need to comb their hair every day, remove debris and tie knots, which is very effective in reducing sticky hair.
Use pet-specific combing brushes and combing cuts to protect cats' hair and let cats feel our warm and caring for it.
Finally, if cats often experience problems such as drip in the anus and anal itching, you can consider cleaning the cat around the anus.
Use pet-specific wet wipes or warm water to clean, be careful of the temperature and strength.
and keep the cat's living environment clean, so as to prevent gastrointestinal diseases and parasites such as fleas and mites. To sum up, the issue of long-haired cats sticking to hair requires everyone to pay more attention to their daily diet, hair combing and living environment.
In life, we must do a good job in cleaning cats so that cats can feel our warm care.
If the situation is serious, it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time and seek help from a professional veterinarian.
