Recently, many friends have picked up milk cats and come to ask Xiaoda to help find cat mothers or artificial nannies for the kittens (friends in need can poke Xiaoda privately, Xiaoda will help you promote it!), which shows that the annual trend of milk cats has arrived again.
Since the beginning of spring, the cats have emerged like bamboo shoots after a rain! So the question is, why are there so many kids recently?
This problem is mainly because female cats are seasonal estrus animals, mostly concentrated in spring and autumn (there is this from the meow of the cat). It is generally believed that female cats have estrus and light levels. After an average of about 65 days of pregnancy, more milk cats were born.
While helping to find a nurse, Xiaoda also noticed that many friends have time to take care of but are troubled by not being able to take care of the cat. It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish. Therefore, Xiaoda specially prepared this guide to take care of the cat.
Not long ago, a friend asked Xiaoda to rescue the little cat. You can click the video to see the actual operation first. Next, we will introduce the theoretical operation~
Picking up the baby cat, don’t panic. We have three steps, one is insulated, two is feeding, and three is aided!
01 Insulation is imminent!
The most important thing when picking up a cat is to keep it warm. Especially for cats that feel cold, you should find heating tools as soon as possible, such as heating items such as baby warmers, hot water bags, etc. (The photography lights in the video are emergency, and it is not recommended that everyone learn. If you have no experience, it is easy to burn the kitten). Even if you cover it with hot hands or cover the towel and clothes first, then move to a safe and warm place immediately.
After finding a safe and warm environment, if you find that the cat is wet, you must wipe it or blow it dry. If you have the conditions, use a hair dryer. If you have no conditions, use a tissue to wipe it dry with a reverse hair. Make sure the cat is warm and feels warm when it feels.
The younger the cat, the higher the temperature requirements. Xiaoda has prepared a temperature requirement table for cats of all ages for everyone↓
After the basic insulation, you can breathe a little relieved and start building a comfortable cat nest. Prepare a carton, then lay old clothes or towels on it, then add insulation items wrapped in thick towels, and finally lay a layer of urine pads. The carton should not be too big, as the cat cannot crawl out. A dry, warm, windless and comfortable cat nest is ready!
However, it should be noted that the cat's nest should be placed in a quiet and crowded place to reduce the pressure on the kitten by unfamiliar environments, so as to facilitate the growth of kittens.
02Feeding is the most important thing!
Prepare a warm and comfortable cat nest and don’t leave first. There is another very important second step to be solved! When you pick up the little cats, these little cats have been hungry for a while and are hungry for feeding. At this time, we need to feed these little cats!
1. Cat milk is preferred for cat mothers to feed;
2. Without cat mothers, you can only prepare milk powder for feeding.
If everyone is in an emergency, it is best to feed the baby with goat milk powder as soon as possible (it is very convenient to buy on the takeaway platform or at the nearby supermarket). Never feed milk, as it is easy to get diarrhea. It is not recommended to feed goat milk powder for babies for a long time, as it will lead to a lack of business and slow growth of kittens.
Another type is [high-quality] cat milk powder, which is the most ideal choice, with protein content, fat and nutrient content closer to female cat milk. Everyone must not save money on milk powder. Think about the little cat you have worked hard to save from the gates of hell. In the end, because of the poor milk powder, the nutrition cannot keep up. Finally, I went to Cat Star...
The cat goat milk powder used by the adoption center is "MAG high-protein colostrum cat goat milk powder"
