The House Cat Diary

I have discovered few hot feline finds in the Internet, which can be called as Kitten astrology. Youc an call the cat as a perfect weather forecaster.  The behavior of  your  cat  clearly implies few facts that is going to occur within few hours. So they can predict the future in an amazing way. Although these are cat-related  folk-lore, some of them are true. Please read the following points and comment here whether it is true or false after experiencing the same.

When your cat wails out loudly and stays outdoor through out the night, it may be foretelling a period of several days of bad weather.

If you find your kitty behaves in a skittish manner, claws the ground and rolls over and over in the grass, is indicaing that a brief rain-shower is on the way.

Cats cleaning and washing their ears has long been foreseen rain.

You can expect a strong winds or storm, when the cat  clawing everthing in sight, darting here and there, and running wildly about. The storm will soon blow itself out once the cat quietens down.

Last but not least, a sneezing cat implies that the rain is on the way. If it sneezes in a row means a cold for YOU…(lol)

Cat urinary tract health is associated with the physiological features. Cat urinary tract health is to be maintained seriously to avoid any complications that are more likely to occur in various breeds of cats. 

Do you know wherefrom the cats have originated? It is the desert region. Got it? Hence, most of the times, the cats may not show much tendency to go for watering.

In such occasions, often the cats end up in the infection of the urinary tract especially the lower parts of the urinary tract. Take more care during maintenance of cat urinary tract health.

Always add a tablespoon of vinegar to the water daily and this helps to increase the acidity of the urine of cat. 

Hence, the cats may not get affected by the renal stones due to the acidic nature of urine. This helps a lot in case of cats. I hope that you have understood the importance of this now. 

Being a desert animal, it gets satisfied with water available in the prey species. Hence, we need to encourage the drinking activity of cats by making appropriate changes in the watering arrangements. 

For example, one can improve the watering facility by provision of large water vessel. Hence, the whiskers of the cat will not touch the sides of the vessel and hence, the drinking activity of the cats may not get discouraged. 

Wondering? But it is true. Similarly, you may even provide the drinking fountain facility for your cats. To maintain cat urinary tract health, provide more watering vessels.  

Cats love drinking activity in such well arranged watering facility. Further whenever you provide the feed items to your cats, try to provide water along with feed items. 

Especially the dry feed items need to be added with water in order to promote the intake of water by the cats which otherwise may develop some notable problems in the urinary tract affecting the health status ultimately. 

Add chicken froth with water to the dry feed often. Never try to disturb the cats while it takes water on its own. Hence, all these steps are most essential if you want to maintain successfully the cat urinary tract health. Ok? 

Mucus and minute crystals may block often the male urinary system and such affected cats may strain during the passage of urine. 

Hence, provide them good amount of water during undertaking of measures related to cat urinary tract health. Cat urinary tract health is the most important one to avoid diseases in the body.

Kitten illnesses are to be viewed in a serious manner because the kittens are highly vulnerable to the pathogenic changes made by various pathogens or illnesses. Kitten illnesses have to be treated in a fast manner. 

If you want to avoid such problems, you have to take lot of precautionary measures. The kittens get mostly affected by worm problems. In particular, the round worms are gaining more significance in this younger group of cats. 

If they are larger in numbers, some worms may get vomited through the mouth. Yeah. The vomit may have some worms too, during such kitten illnesses. Getting amazed? But, it is true. Don’t get panic on seeing the worms in the vomited materials. 

If the kitten swallows some foreign materials, then they may make more severe attempts to vomit. Hence, the activity of vomiting is considered as a protective response and such vomiting may occur with more sounds. 

However, if you see a continuous type of vomiting with pink froth, you have to consult a veterinarian immediately to get proper therapy. 

Cestodiasis is another problem often encountered in the kittens. The affected animals may often squat on the ground and the rubbing of anal regions on the ground may be so severe and serrations may at times occur at the posterior regions. 

Hence, they need immediate therapeutic attention. Rice beads like materials may be seen in the areas under the tail around the anal parts. Parvo viral infection may also affect the kittens severely. 

The affected animals may reveal motion with blood streaks and the animals may also be dehydrated seriously. Hence, the kittens may be found depressed and with lethargic movements. 

Feline infectious peritonitis has to be examined if these young cats reveal the symptoms like seizures, vomiting in frequent manner etc. 

There may be signs of intense pain due to the affection by means of swelling at the peritoneal regions of the body. Feline immunodeficiency viral infections are the ones that are difficult to treat in general. 

Hence, the kittens need to be protected with all types of vaccinations that are required. For this, it is essential that you have to consult a veterinarian in time. 

Get some technical suggestions on the protective measures required to avoid the kitten illnesses during the meeting with veterinarian.
 

The gastric problems like gastritis or gastric ulcers may become the worrying kitten illnesses and the cats may never be comfortable with kitten illnesses. More incidences of vomiting and occasionally vomiting with blood streaks may occur in such occasions.

Cat health symptoms are most important ones that are to be understood by the cat owners or cat breeders. Yeah. You need to understand the cat health symptoms if you want to have a successful rearing of cats in your house.

The routine behavior of the cats has to be properly known if you want to successfully identify the symptom related to various diseases in cats.

A healthy cat may exhibit the symptom of licking of hair materials on the body. This is considered as a normal habit in case of cats.

Don’t jump into the conclusion that it is having problem with skin. However, if such cats reveal intensive actions, then you may suspect some problems in the particular skin region that has been licked frequently.

Similarly, one of the cat health symptoms revealed is that many times, the cats may eat reluctantly or some times, very eagerly and however, it depends on the palatability of the feed items that are offered to the cats. Got it?

But, if the cat takes so much time to eat such palatable food item that is kept in front, then you need to suspect the presence of any illness in that cat.

Am I correct? You need to make a correct judgment often and this may come only after a thorough observation of your cat when it is happily passing time every day.

Similarly, the breeding related cat health symptoms are to be known very well if you want to have cats in good conditions. Your female cats may become too nervous in the breeding seasons.

The making of loud sound like crying sound of a baby is common with cats and don’t suspect them for the presence of pharyngitis in such occasions.

Mild sneezing in a day may be a normal protective reflex that is exhibited by most of the cats.

 If the cat eats any grass accidentally or any foreign body accidentally entering the nasal passage, it may attempt to sneeze vigorously.

But if the activity is continued for many times daily, then you need to understand that it is something different from the routinely exhibited cat health symptoms.

The drinking of water needs to be observed. If the animal has more intensity of thirst, then understand that it is not one of the cat health symptoms. Got it? Note that the increased thirst may be frequently seen in case of cats affected with diabetes.

So cat health symptoms are most important ones in general. I hope you have understood something on the cat health symptoms now. Ok?

Cat diarrhea is one of the problem to be taken as a serious one and if not, the cats may die due to the occurrence of cat diarrhea. Yeah. This is true. Hence, you need to be more serious whenever you come across the occurrence of loose motion in your cat.

If the cat has swallowed some unnatural foreign article, there may be occurrence of cat diarrhea.  Cat diarrhea has to be treated with antibiotic especially if they become dull and the movements of the cats become reduced.

Many times, tiny stands of wicker baskets are found to the etiological factor for the presence of such clinical problem with cats.

Yeah. This is true. Hence, you need to take care that nothing is left in the feeding place to avoid the accidental swallowing of such objects by the hungry cats.

Some times, the cat may have the loose motion due to the affection by coccidial organisms like Isospora species. Yeah. Whenever, the cats get affected by this parasitic condition, there may be blood tinged motion or blood streaked stool samples.

If the cat has been provided with less digestible diet, and the cat is there without adequate exercise, then they may develop this disorder.

When the cat is found to have loose motion, it is better to look after them with special care and see that they should not get dehydrated soon.

If there is dehydration due to the existing pathologic condition, then the cat has to be treated with adequate amount of fluids and antibiotic to control the loose motion.  

If there is a persistent passage of stools with liquid like consistency, then suspect the cats for the presence of hair balls in them. You have to go for the purgatives after ruling out the dehydration and anemia.

Similarly, many times, the cats may be having many problems due to multiple helminthes and even tape worm problems may also lead to these types of problems in the cats reared by the cat breeders or cat lovers.

If you have to switch over to the new brand of food item, you have to adapt a gradual change. If not, the cat may develop some diarrhea or dysentery.

The affected cats may be given a plain yogurt in a cup and any other bland item. Cat diarrhea is not to be neglected. Avoid giving too much of proteins and spicy food. In fact, avoid the provision of bulk type of feed during the occurrence of cat diarrhea.
