For cat owners, the road to raising a cat is not a smooth road and will not be smooth sailing.
Many people think that raising a cat is much less troublesome than raising a dog, and there is no need to expend too much energy.
But in fact, when the cat is sick or enters old age, the cat will feel the pain.
Not to mention that a trip to the pet hospital when a cat is sick often costs hundreds or thousands of dollars. Let’s just say that this process puts both the cat and the cat under a lot of pressure.
The thing that makes the shit shovel official collapse more than the cat’s illness is the death of the cat.
Generally speaking, a cat’s life is 12-15 years.
Very few cats live to be 18 or even 20 years old.
You must know that a cat’s teenage years are equivalent to a human’s seventy or eighty years old. This is an advanced cat.
When a person gets old, he will be very sad; when a tree gets old, it will be dilapidated; and when a cat gets old, it will make the man's heart entangled and painful.
A netizen left a message for me.
A netizen had a cat at home and it just passed away.
This cat has been with her for 15 years. When the netizen got married, the cat "married" with her.
A netizen gave birth to two children, with cats accompanying them both.
For netizens, cats are like their friends and family members.
Although cats cannot speak, the relationship between cats and their families is very good.
After the cat passed away, their family was extremely sad.
She said: "I never want to keep a cat again. The scene when I am separated from my pet is really painful."
Nothing in this world is eternal. The person you thought would always be by your side may leave you one day.
I am used to joking with others:
"Don't keep pets easily, because pets often don't live as long as humans; of course, unless you keep a turtle, it can Live with your children and grandchildren."
Keeping a pet itself is an "emotional investment."
The greatest reward a pet can give to a poop shoveler is emotional comfort and silent companionship.
When a cat gets older and enters old age, what preparations should a poop scraper make?
First: Take care of your dietGood Cat
The older the cat, the faster its body functions decline.
You will find that the hearing and vision of elderly cats are no longer good, their eyes become cloudy, and their hair becomes dry.
Also, the lively cat who used to parkour around the house at night now spends more of his time sleeping.
At this time, you should realize that the cat is gradually aging.
At this time, the poop scraper should pay most attention to the cat’s “diet”.
The digestive system of elderly cats has deteriorated. If cats eat too much greasy, too hard cat food, or cat food with too high protein, they will not be able to digest it easily.
Therefore, poop scrapers should replace elderly cats with cat food specially designed for senior cats.
Moreover, older cats become lazy, their mobility decreases, and they become unwilling to drink water.
At this time, the poop scooper also needs to pay attention: he must help the cat drink more water.
For example: place more cat bowls at home, and put a bowl of water in every corner so that cats can see the water no matter where they sleep.
Second: Be mentally prepared
The most difficult thing for cat owners to endure is the "psychological hurdle" when cats are old.
Therefore, shit shovelers must convince themselves to have a peaceful mind.
Birth, old age, illness and death are the laws of nature.
Even the flowers and plants you plant will wither and then grow new buds.
Although the cat will go to the "Meow Planet" one day, the cat still lives in your heart and remains in your memory.
No matter how much time passes, you will always remember that there was such a cat that accompanied you for more than ten years in your life, and that is enough.
It’s just that it’s hard for someone who has really raised cats for more than ten years to have the courage to raise a second cat.
