Raising cats adds a bit of warmth and joy to our lives. But although the cat is small, it is a "master" who cares about a lot of things. On the road to raising cats, if you are not careful, you may step into the minefield and cause our little fur balls to suffer.

Today, we will have a "mine-sweeping operation" to reveal the most taboo things in raising cats, and ensure that your "cats" can be with you healthily and happily. Come and check it out quickly. Have you accidentally stepped into these "minefields"?

01. Imprisoning the cat? NO! Give me freedom!

If you are forced to live in a small room and cannot go out for a walk as you wish, will you feel moldy? The same is true for cats. They are born with freedom, like to roll leisurely in the sun, and like to explore small corners and chase light and shadow.

If you are in a cage for a long time, cats will not only be depressed, but their eyes will lose their luster. Unless the cat is sick and needs isolation treatment, please let them run freely, home is their kingdom!

02. Cats "spa"? Water is not my dish, thank you!

The cat's attitude towards water is like how you and I feel about Monday morning - if you can hide, you can hide. Frequent bathing of a cat will not only make it extremely unhappy, but may also destroy the natural protective layer on its skin - the sebum membrane, thereby causing skin diseases.

You should know that cats are masters of self-cleaning and spend a lot of time taking care of their hair every day. They are even cleaner than you and me! Unless it accidentally rolls into the quagmire, it is enough to let the cat take care of itself.

03. Cuddly ≠ health! The cat version of weight loss plan is launched!

"Oh, my cat is so chubby and cute!" Slowly, this is not love, it is harm! Over-obesity in cats will not only put huge pressure on their small skeletons, but may also cause diabetes and fatty liver, which will severely shorten their lifespan.

If you love it, give it a healthy lifestyle, a balanced diet and moderate exercise, so that cats can stay away from obesity and be full of vitality!

4. Not sealing the window = a big hidden danger! The cat's adventure dream and safety are in harmony

As the saying goes, "curiosity kills the cat", the cat's curiosity is comparable to the explorer's desire for the unknown. They always want to see the world outside the window. If they do not close the windows in time, they may stage a "jailbreak" drama and even lead to tragedy.

Don't wait until your heart is broken before regretting. Close the windows in advance, not only for safety, but also for the cat to enjoy the "Little Doudou by the Window" time at home with peace of mind, and have both safety and scenery.

05. Claw removal surgery? This is not a sign of love!

What will happen if you lose the first section of your finger? For cats, declaw surgery is such a pain, which sounds heartbreaking. It deprives the cat of natural defense and the pleasure of climbing trees, and the damage caused is permanent.

Care for furniture? The problem of random scratching that can be solved by just scratching a cat board, why bother the cat to suffer so much? If you love it, respect every part of it, let the cat maintain its nature, and protect your furniture. Win-win is the bottom line.
