Cats, as the little princess and prince of the family, their every move affects the heart of the shovel officer. However, have you ever noticed your cat's toilet problem? Today, let's take a look at the toilet problems that bother cats, and the reasons behind them - many times, these problems are caused by the owner!
1. Negligent cleaning: Do you know the cleanliness of cats?
Cats are naturally clean animals, and they have extremely high requirements for their own toilet environment. Imagine if your toilet was dirty and messy, would the cat still want to go in? The answer is yes, they may become rude or even choose not to go to the toilet, and in the long run, cats may also suffer from urinary diseases such as cystitis and urinary stones.
Therefore, dear shovelers, you must remember to remove your cat's excrement every day, change the cat litter regularly, and clean the toilet thoroughly. Keeping the toilet clean not only makes your cat more comfortable, but also reduces your cat's risk of getting sick.
Second, the number of toilets is insufficient: the embarrassment of multi-cat families
If you have more than one cat at home, the number of toilets is even more important. The ideal number of toilets should be "+1 number of cats". This is because some cats are reluctant to share toilets with other cats and need to have a private space of their own.
Even if you only have one cat, it is advisable to have two toilets. In this way, the cat can choose the toilet according to its own preferences and reduce the stress caused by toilet problems.
3. Undesirable toilets: pay attention to the shape and sand
Did you know that cats also have their own preferences for the shape of the toilet and the type of sand? Some cats prefer tubular or covered toilets, while others prefer open toilets. If you use a toilet that your cat doesn't like for a long time, they may become reluctant to go to the toilet or even rude.
Therefore, as a shovel officer, we need to choose the right toilet according to the cat's personality and preferences, and try different types of cat litter to find the one that the cat likes the most.
Fourth, the toilet is not well located: a balance between comfort and convenience
In addition to the shape of the toilet and the type of sand, the location of the toilet is also an important factor that affects the cat's toilet experience. We should avoid placing toilets near washing machines, in crowded corridors, or in entrances that tend to get cold in winter. In addition, cats do not like the toilet to be too close to the food area, so care needs to be taken to keep a certain distance when setting up the toilet.
At the same time, in order to facilitate the observation of the cat's health, the location of the toilet should be easy for the owner to see. Choosing a quiet, comfortable, and easily observed location can make your cat feel more at ease when going to the toilet.
5. Ignoring the cat's discomfort: early warning of health problems
Sometimes, cats are reluctant to go to the toilet or become rude, probably because they have something wrong with their body. For example, diseases such as cystitis and urinary tract stones can cause difficulty or pain in cats. As a shovel officer, we need to closely observe the cat's behavior and excretion, and once we find an abnormality, we should take the cat to the veterinarian immediately.
Urinary diseases have a significant impact on a cat's health and can even be life-threatening. Therefore, we must not ignore any possible signs of health problems, and we must detect and respond to them in a timely manner.
Summary
Cats' toilet problems may seem like a trivial matter, but they are actually related to their health and well-being. As a shoveler, we need to pay attention to every detail to ensure that the cat has a comfortable and clean toilet environment.
By cleaning the toilet regularly, providing an adequate number of toilets and the right toilet shape and sand, choosing the right toilet location, and keeping an eye on the health of your cat, we can effectively reduce your cat's toilet problems and make them live a more comfortable and healthy life.
Let's work together to create a perfect living environment for our cats! Remember, every little detail can affect your cat's well-being and health.
