Cats' nails grow faster and crack easily when the climate is dry. Usually, we should insist on doing a good job in cat nail care and apply grease around cat nails to prevent them from cracking.
Cleavage and bifurcation of cat nails may be caused by malnutrition, too long nails and dry feet. These conditions can be prevented by regularly pruning and caring for cats' nails and maintaining their nutritional balance.
If the cat has cracked nails, it should be trimmed in time, and the cat's broken nails should be removed in time, and some trace elements should be added to lubricate the dry nails. In addition, the cat's cracked nail may also be caused by diseases such as tinea felis and superficial pyoderma, so if the cat has other abnormalities, it should be taken to the pet hospital for examination in time.
Different stages of cat feeding
Newborn kittens are best breastfed. Breast milk contains maternal antibodies, which can protect kittens from diseases. If there is no breast milk, you can buy baby cat milk powder instead.
3 -8 weeks old is the weaning transition period. At this stage, the cat's stomach is fragile, so it is best to eat soft cat food and goat milk powder.
From 8 weeks to 12 weeks, the cat began to eat. You can use goat milk powder to soak your kittens, and pay attention to eating less and eating more meals.
3 -4 months is the cat's tooth changing period, and the cat food does not need to be softened to avoid the formation of double rows of teeth.
5 -6 months is the long body period of cats, with long bones and long muscles. It is important to supplement calcium and protein, so choose high-protein cat food.
From 7 months to 12 months, the cat is an adult. During this period, the cat's motor ability and brain development reached the peak. In addition to staple food, you can also feed canned staple food and other supplementary nutrition.
1 -6 years old is the adult period of cats, and they should be fed cat food. The metabolism of cats is slow, and it is easy to cause obesity without adjusting diet and exercise.
When cats aged 7 years and above enter the old age, they can feed the old cat food, and the amount of exercise should be reduced.
