Common Health Problems Of Cats.

 


If you are new to having a cat, you may be surprised to find that health problems are common. No matter what kind of cat you have, health problems are expected. Some can be hereditary, while others can be easily protected.


Worms


No matter what kind of cat it is, larvae are a common and recurring problem. Tapeworms, roundworms and hookworms are among the most common infections in cats. Cats that have problems with weight gain, have problems with fleas, or if they find white spots in their cell, your veterinarian should test them for worms. Although they can not be treated with medication, the worms can kill if left untreated.


Hair


Hairballs are a common health problem for cats. All cats groom themselves daily, usually swallowing loose hair from their coats. Sometimes, these loose hairs will come together into a ball and be placed in the digestive tract instead of passing through your cat's seat. When your cat starts coughing and hitting, you usually cough up a hairball. While it may be disgusting in the end, most cats can chase hairballs without problems.


In rare cases, hairball can pass into the cat's intestines, creating blockages. Prevention is a very serious problem, and it can be life-threatening if left untreated. If your cat is constipated, malnourished, or has a dull clothing, it may become infected. If you notice any of these symptoms, you should see a veterinarian immediately. You can prevent hairballs and blemishes by brushing your cat 2 - 3 times a week to remove loose hair. You can also feed her a diet designed to control hairballs as well.


Urinary tract infections


Urinary tract infections are also a common health problem in cats. Urinary tract infections are more common in male cats that have not been vaccinated, although females may face this problem as well. When a cat suddenly stops going to its trash can, this problem is usually the cause. Another symptom is when a cat's urine starts to smell very bad. If you suspect that your cat has a urinary tract infection, you should take him or her to a veterinarian. Your veterinarian can treat the problem with medication, and make recommendations to help prevent this problem in the future.


Feline leukemia


In the past, feline leukemia was a major cause of death in cats. These days however there are drugs available to treat the disease. To treat the disease, your cat will need to be given a gun before it can be exposed. Although death does not occur immediately, cats exposed to feline leukemia usually do not have a long life. If you know that your cat has feline leukemia, you should not let other cats around him, because the virus is highly contagious.


To protect your cat, you should always make sure you take it to a veterinarian for regular check-ups. If you always let him know his goals, he should live a healthy and productive life. While some health problems are inevitable, most of them are. You can also keep your cat inside, which will protect him from many health problems. If your cat is a foreign cat, regular visits to a veterinarian will keep him or her healthy. As long as you take your cat to the vet and keep him healthy - he will be your friend for years to come.

10 unique animals you won't believe exist.

    I have prepared for you a selection of ten strange animals that you have probably never heard of, let alone, ever met.   1. Mangalitsa pig,   aka a pig in sheep's clothing. in the mid 19th century. Due to the fleece covering this animal, it resembles a sheep, therefore its name. The fleece can be black or red, but these cuties are most commonly blond. This is the last pig in existence to boast such an amazing winter coat. Tragically, it was nearly extinct by the 1990s, when fewer than 200 pigs could be found in Hungary, all because of their extraordinarily tasty lard. Thankfully, nowadays, the future of Mangalitsa looks much brighter!    2. Rhinopithecus,      They were called this way after the supposedly snub-nosed courtesan of Suleiman the Magnificent, in the 16th century. Sultan of the    Ottoman Empire. Another interesting thing is the difference between male and female monkeys, with males being twice heavier than   fe...

The decorative deerhound.

  The Deerhound is one of the most adorable, impressive and beautiful dogs to be seen, even if it is in the middle of the birdhouse, sitting comfortably in front of an open fireplace in the moderate fire of log fire polished weapons and clothes worn out in the open, filtering the leash as it smells dewy , or ties sweetly over the purple of their hills. Kindness and majesty pervade his entire movement and attitude, and even in the most prosaic sense there is an inseparable splendor of racial love and poetry. From ancient times the nobles of Scotland loved their Deerhound species, seeking a glorious game in the forests of the Highlands. The red deer belonged to the unforgettable law of the kings of Scotland, and large-scale drives, which usually lasted for a few days, were made to gather herds and give them places dedicated to the court, as in the time of Queen Mary. But the orderly arrangement of the deer by the court staff ended during Stuart's troubles, and it remained in the hand...
