Protect You Cat in High Temperatures and Humidity

catglassesHigh heat and humidity made it miserable! When heat and humidity reach dangerous levels , any strenuous physical activity for your cat or travel in his cat carrier should be avoided. The high humidity will prevent your cats body from cooling down because cats do not sweat like we do. High humidity can cause strokes, cramps and exhaustion. All of these conditions can be very dangerous for your pet. Body fluids in your cat are lost in these conditions and the body temperature can rise to a very high level.

How do you know if your cat is overheated? If your cat has breathing problems, coughing or a dry throat, he is probably dehydrated and get him to a cool, shady spot with plenty of water on hand right away.

During the summer, take precautions when it comes to your pets. You may have to change your plans to keep them safe. Keep them in a cool area and always have their water bowl filled.

Remember, your pets count!
