Great tips on how to keep your cat safe during the hot weather.

Keeping Cats Safe in the Heat!

With temperatures starting to rise, it’s important to remember that our feline friends can struggle in the heat — especially older cats, long-haired breeds, or those with medical conditions.

Here are some simple ways to keep your cat cool and comfortable during hot weather:

• Fresh Water – Always have multiple bowls of clean, cool water available around the house and garden.
• Shady Spots – Make sure your cat has access to shaded or cool indoor areas.
• Watch out in modern houses which have large bi-fold doors or glass lanterns. Rooms like this can become dangerously hot during the heat of the day. Make sure your cat has a cooler room to escape to.
• Cool Surfaces – Tile floors or damp towels can be a great place for a cat to stretch out and cool off.
• Limit Outdoor Time – Avoid letting them out during the hottest part of the day (11am–3pm). Use a gentle fan indoors to help cool an area.
• Groom Regularly – Brushing helps reduce the amount of insulating undercoat.

Watch for Signs of Heatstroke – Panting, drooling, lethargy, or vomiting are all red flags. Contact your vet immediately if you notice these.

Cats are pretty clever at keeping themselves cool, but a little extra help from us goes a long way!

Stay safe and enjoy the sunshine (sensibly)!
