As summer sets in, there are some simple things you can do to keep your cat comfortable in the heat.

KEEP YOUR CAT HYDRATED

KEEP YOU CAT INDOOR

The stubborn warm sunshine can cause trouble to your feline friend hence it’s better to provide her with shelter in a shady area else it’s better to keep her inside the home. There your cat can have the availability of fan, air conditioners and it will be a sigh of relief.

CLEAN AND DRY YOUR CAT WITH A DAMP CLOTH

If you are one of those living in an area combined with both high temperature and high humidity then consider giving your cat a mini bath. Take a cool damp cloth and focus on the areas of the body where cats retain most of the heat.

AIR CIRCULATION

Ventilation is essential for every home especially during in summer. You can simply open the windows to let in a soothing breeze that can help provide a cool area to rest. In case your house is not air-conditioned during the summer heat, then keep a small box fan and try putting a frozen water bottle in front of the fan.

REGULAR GROOMING AND BATHING

A regular shower is a must for your cat as it will keep her refreshing all day. In addition, by having a regular bath, the sweat and dirt will exfoliate and your feline friend will feel more comfortable.

Regular grooming like brushing your cat’s fur will help in removing the dead skin and the toned hair will help in maintaining the heat balance.
