Cat Parasite – Types Of Most Common Cat Parasite DetailsCat Parasite – Types Of Most Common Cat Parasite Details

Cat Parasite A parasite obtains its nutrition from your pet and gives nothing in return except possible illness. This one-sided relationship has been under attack by concerned pet owners, veterinarians, pet-food manufacturers, and pharmaceutical companies. As a concerned pet owner, you must be aware of whether your cat has a parasite problem, whether you can treat it at home or need to visit your veterinarian, and how to prevent the parasite from finding a home on or in your pet’s body. First, let me dispel a few old wives’ tales: Garlic does not cure worms. Cats do not transmit pinworms to children. Candy does not cause worms. Worms do not always cause disease (many pets live nicely with their parasites). Thinness or constant hunger does not always indicate worm problems. The worm medicine sold in pet stores and grocery stores should not be used unless your pet has roundworms and your veterinarian has advised you to use it.

5 Simple Tips to Fight Cat Odors in Your Home5 Simple Tips to Fight Cat Odors in Your Home

Information about Cat Odors Cat Odors One of the most frustrating issues of owning a cat. When you open your front door, do you smell cats or freshness? Here are five natural ways to freshen and rejuvenate your home. First, though, the best start is a clean home. Luckily, you have two gentle, nontoxic cleaners right at your fingertips: baking soda and vinegar. Mildly acidic vinegar is a natural disinfectant that kills mold, mildew, germs, and viruses, and dissolves stains, including soap scum and hard-water schmutz. “Vinegar actually removes the sources of the odor, and once everything dries, it smells very fresh,” says Jill Potvin Schoff of Wallingford, Conn., author of “Green Up Your Cleanup” (Creative Homeowner, March 2008). Baking soda removes the source of the odor by neutralizing its pH and makes a gentle, effective scouring-powder and stain remover. For urine, vomit or other smelly stains, clean with vinegar or club soda.  Or spray a 50-50 solution of water and vinegar on just about any spill or stain.

Cats are lovely as it is but there is no end to human fantasy. Dressing up your cat in various costumes to make it look a real beauty, is quite a fad among the cat breeders and owners. Cats don’t need to wear clothes everyday and they don’t like to do so too. Cats are used to roam about as they are with their perfect agility and grace on normal days and might not feel comfortable in a dress but you can cajole a cat to wear a dress on special occasions such as her birthday and take your shots in a number of poses to fill up your memories and then remove the clothes immediately, before she gets too irritated and aggressive. Cat Clothes And Accessories Just like our costume parties, a cats’ dress is only limited in colors, styles, designs and patterns to human imagination. The felt can be used for making the dress while easily detachable Velcro head and neck ornaments add to the beautiful look too.

Cat Training – Obedience Tips for Your New CatCat Training – Obedience Tips for Your New Cat

How To Train a Cat (Cat Training) Many people are under the mistaken impression that cats are arrogant, moody creatures that will ignore their owners’ attempts to train them. They think that cats could obey and choose not to. Although cats do ignore commands because they don’t feel like doing what their owners ask, sometimes they are not obeying because they simply do not understand. Training a cat (Cat Training) generally takes a lot more time and patience than training a dog. Positive reinforcement works better than negative reinforcement with cats. If you punish them, they will just wait until you are not watching to misbehave, so it is better to simply ignore wrong responses and lavish praise on your cat when he responds correctly. You should start training your cat when he is about eight to ten weeks old. However, if you have an older cat, don’t let that stop you. It may be a bit harder to teach him,

Urinary Problems in Cat The symptoms of urinary problems in cat may try to urinate more often and only urinate a little, or your cat may fail to do so at all. It may look strained or show signs of pain when urinating, and stay in a urinating position for longer than normal. Its urine might have a pinkish color due to blood in the urine. Earlier this week, one of my Abyssiniaurn cats, Hobbes, began to squat outside the litterbox, seeking soft surfaces such as rugs and clothes. After much straining, all that came out was a driblet with tiny spots of blood. Off to the veterinarian she went, where she was diagnosed with a feline lower urinary tract disease (FLUTD). A FLUTD can result from various causes for urinary problems in cats such as a urinary tract infection (bacteria, viruses or fungi), or more complicated causes, such as parasites, cancerous tumors, trauma, bladder stones,

Cuts on a Cat – Treatment, Home Remedies & PrecautionsCuts on a Cat – Treatment, Home Remedies & Precautions

Cuts on A Cat or Bleeding even small amounts frightens many pet owners, but the blood’s remarkable clotting mechanism stops most bleeding in five minutes. When a small blood vessel is injured, it constricts (narrows) to allow less blood to escape. Platelets, which are blood cells, arrive at the scene to plug the hole, and chemicals released by the platelets combine with factors in the blood to produce fiber like strands called fibrin, which complete the bloodclot and stop the bleeding. Sometimes the injury to the blood vessel is too large for the clotting mechanism to be effective. Apply direct pressure to the wound for five or ten minutes and allow the clotting mechanism to work; that’s usually all that is needed. Use the cleanest material available gauze pads, sheets, towels, or clothing. A pre s-sure bandage can be applied for sustained pressure. If these measures are un-successful, a tourniquet is needed. Cuts on a Cat Home Remedies Clean the wound with soap and water after the bleeding stops.

Cat Grooming – Keep Your Cat Looking Great Cats do not like to be dirty. Most cats spend a good part of their day licking their paws and face to stay clean and tidy. However, despite this, few cat owners think about cat grooming.   However, Cat Grooming is very important. This process helps remove loose hair from your cat’s body. Without brushing, a lot of this hair would have ended up in your cat’s stomach. Since hair is not easily digestible, it often forms hairballs. While cats can sometimes cough up hairballs, they can clog the intestinal tract, as well. In addition, cat grooming can remove dirt and debris from your cat’s coat. It is also a great opportunity to check for fleas and ticks. If you thought your cat would hate to be groomed, you may be surprised at how much he actually enjoys the experience. Of course, it is much easier to accustom your cat to brushes and combs when he is still a young kitten.
