How Cats Relieve Heat?

Summer is here and the temperature is gradually rising.

Although cats have their own way to dissipate heat - there are degenerated sweat glands on the soles of their feet. However, the suitable temperature for cats is 18-21 degrees. When the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, the cat will also show discomfort, such as loss of appetite and lack of exercise.

Therefore, as owners, we should always pay attention to the state of cats and take corresponding measures for them to relieve the heat.

Next, I will list three ways to relieve the heat in cats.

Firstly, place the cat's nest in a cool and ventilated place, never place it in a place where the sun is shining, and pay attention to ventilation indoors. You can place ice cubes or turn on the air conditioner to lower the room temperature.

Secondly, the hair of long-haired cats can be properly trimmed (thinning the hair), but be careful not to shave the cat. At the same time, the hair on the cat's toes must also be trimmed thoroughly, because this part is full of sweat glands, which can better help the cat dissipate heat and cool down.

Thirdly, you can prepare a Mora Pets Cooling Mat for your kitten.
This cooling mat is filled with cooling gel, which can make pets feel instant cooling by quickly absorbing and releasing their body heat without electricity and water. And it can relieve pets from overheating up to 3 hours.
With a strong nylon out cover and a PVC inner layer, this pet cooling mat is paw-friendly, puncture-resistant and waterproof. The edge of cool bed is also reinforced to prevent leakage, improving the durability of this cooling mat.
No more complaining about the summer!
