Now, cats have become a kind of pet raised by many people because of their cute appearance and gentle personality. However, there are also taboos for raising cats. Do you know what taboos are there for raising cats? What are the taboos are there for raising pet cats? What are the taboos are there for raising cats? Let’s follow the editor’s footsteps today and let’s take a look!
1. Claw removal, with nail cover
"removal of claws" was very popular for a while because cats often caught people, and some owners would choose to remove claws directly for the sake of one and for all. But removing the claws is not about trimming the nails, but directly cutting the joints of the claws. It's totally abuse, imagine if you lose one finger, can you still live a normal life? Not only can declaw remover cause extreme pain and disease in the body, it can also increase cats’ aggressiveness and increase the likelihood of postoperative complications. Australia, Japan and many European countries have declared that "de-clawing" is illegal.
There are also cat nail covers, which are also anti-human designs. It is purely for the owner's selfish desires. Once you put on your nail cover, your walking, climbing and jumping will be affected. Many cats and dogs will tear their fingernails off and their hands are covered with blood.
2. With a collar
Now some people spontaneously wear collars for their cats to look good or to retrieve their lost pets.
Some collars are really good and make people want to buy them, but collars are very dangerous for cats.
Because cats like to jump up and down.
If the collar hook is in some places in the process, it would be fatal.
Some collars stuck in the mouth can seriously damage the mouth. The collar is stuck in the front leg, causing serious injury or even death. The collar was hooked by a foreign object, causing the cat to suffocate and die.
Some parents hope that the lost cat can be retrieved with a collar, but by then, the collar will have little effect, and the colorful collars will make them eye-catching objects.
So something like a collar is completely unnecessary for cats.
There are also merchants selling collars under the name of flea removal, but there are also many cases of allergies and poisoning.
For deworming, we honestly select both in vitro and in vivo deworming drugs. There are many brands such as Langdaqing and Dachongdeng, and they are not expensive, and they are all nationally certified, so everyone can use them with confidence.
Of course, it is not absolutely against taking photos of cats such as wearing collars. It is understandable to dress up your cubs, but you must not wear them for a long time. Try not to let your cat wear collars or clothes out of your sight.
Sometimes accidents happen, really in a moment.
3. Two strange cats meet directly
Many parents do not pay much attention to this and often put the kitten you just took home directly with the indigenous people, or put other people's cats and rescued cats together.
This is definitely a taboo!
Cats are different from humans, my dear!
When you meet strangers on the road, you may be able to exchange a few greetings. In the animal world, this is the real invader, and maybe two little guys will fight each other.
And you cannot determine if another cat or cat is carrying an infectious disease. Some infectious diseases do not occur as soon as they are infected, but have an incubation period. A healthy cat may not be healthy.
Therefore, when a new cat enters the house, it is necessary to have a physical examination first to ensure health. Then isolate them in different rooms for 1 to 2 weeks, then slowly adapt to them before starting to mix. Don't throw them directly together.
4. Take the cat to the door
Do not bring the cat to the door unless necessary.
When a cat encounters a new environment, it creates a lot of stress, which can cause stress, which can have very serious consequences and may even lead to disease and death.
Someone might argue that cats will run out at night.
But you have to know that cats running out is an autonomous behavior, but taking the cat out is a compulsive behavior. The impact of two different behaviors on the cat is different.
Even if you do take the cat out, be careful to reassure the cat.
5. The negative impact of Toxoplasma gondii vaccine
Treatida gondii on pregnant women has caused some panic and exaggerated the danger of raising cats.
You should know that on a global scale, the Toxoplasma gondii vaccine is still under research, so I hope everyone must be rational when dealing with Toxoplasma gondii.
In Baidu Encyclopedia's introduction to Toxoplasma gondii, it can be clearly seen that cats mainly obtain Toxoplasma infection by infecting cat feces and preying on mice and birds. Cats that are kept indoors and do not eat live animals or raw water are not prone to infection.
Only cats infected with Toxoplasma gondii will spread the eggs within the first two weeks of infection. Infected cat feces contain cystozygotes of Toxoplasma gondii. After infection, it only takes 10-20 days to excrete cystozygotes. The cyst zygote needs to develop outside for 1-2 days or longer before it can be infected, so cat litter or cat feces are removed every day.
Don't force cats to feed them with drugs of unknown origin. As long as you ensure that cat litter and cat feces are removed every day, the harm of Toxoplasma can be basically eliminated.
In fact, there are still many taboos for raising cats. In life, the owner needs to slowly discover that if the cat is particularly repulsive of something, don’t force the cat to do such things. However, the right thing still needs the owner to slowly guide it. Be patient and do not do things that hurt the cat to save trouble.
