A must-see for families with multiple cats! If you want every master to live a happy life, you must pay attention to these three points

I don’t know if you have noticed this phenomenon. Many cat bloggers on the Internet have more than one cat owner at home. Back in reality, multi-cat households are becoming more and more commonplace.

Someone once explained like this: I got the first cat because I was lonely, the second cat because I was afraid that the cat owner would be lonely, the third cat because I accidentally saw another cute little cat, and the fourth and fifth cats no longer need any reason, they are just addicted.

However, when there are more cat owners at home, the difficulty of feeding increases exponentially. Common problems include food distribution, inter-cat relationships, and disease transmission. What should a multi-cat household do about this?

1. Food distribution

Every cat has a different personality and appetite. In a multi-cat household, it is easy for some cats to eat too much, leading to obesity, while other cats cannot get enough food, resulting in malnutrition.

Solution: Since you have multiple masters, the poop shovel must be prepared for "heavy bleeding". Daily food resources must be fully prepared so that even some kittens who cannot grab food can be full. Also, it is recommended not to eat close together. This not only easily causes competition for food, but also creates a sense of urgency in the cat, leading to loss of appetite or eating too fast, which damages the digestive system.

2. Inter-cat relationships

Fighting is a relatively common problem in families with many cats. Especially some kittens with strong territorial awareness always like to use their little paws to "declare sovereignty" when facing other cat owners.

Solution: First of all, you can exchange the things used by the two kittens to make them familiar with each other's taste. This method is especially suitable for adjusting the relationship between the new owner and the aboriginal cats; secondly, you must distribute resources in a balanced manner and give each party enough care; finally, when you see them fighting, be sure to separate them in time, preferably in separate rooms.

3. Disease Transmission

Cross-infection occurs easily between people and cats, and between cats and cats living in the same dense space, resulting in the phenomenon of "if one person is sick, the whole family will suffer"!

Solution: First of all, we need our poop scavengers to pay more attention to the environmental hygiene at home, clean it in time, and disinfect regularly; secondly, pay attention to the health status of each kitten. Once you encounter a furry child in poor condition, you must go to the pet hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time; finally, the private items of kittens, such as cat litter boxes, must not be shared, otherwise cross-infection will easily occur.

Okay, today’s sharing ends here. Finally, I hope the kittens in the multi-cat family can live in harmony, be healthy and happy!
