Good little article I lost my cat of 14 years last Nov. And am still trying to cope with him not being by myside.. it's the worst heartache I have experience in my life .. it's way different than losing a human.

One of the most difficult days for any pet owner is the day their pet passes away.

Oh No! We are out of canned kitten food! We just took on a mamma cat with 6 babies and we will need canned kitten food soon! Any dry kitten food would also be great! Any help would be much appreciated! Amazon and Chewy wish lists are in the comments! You can also bring it by the shelter anytime and put it in the donation bin located outside the front gates! Thank you in advance!!

Many of us love the warm and sunny weather, as do the majority of cats. When the temperature becomes extreme, here are some steps you can take to keep your cat safe and comfortable in the heat.

GROOMING
Brush your cat often. A well-groomed tangle-free coat will help to keep your cat cool.
If your cat has long fur, consider professional clipping to help ease their suffering during summer. White and light-colored cats also have very pale skin and can be subject to sunburn. Talk to your veterinarian about whether giving your cat a clip could help to keep them cool in the hot weather. Another option is to have only the tummy clipped, which offers sun protection as well as cooling.
You may also want to try taking a damp washcloth or paper towel and stroking your cat with it. Most cats don’t mind a little bit of moisture on their fur, especially when they notice how it can cool them off. In fact, one of the ways cats cool themselves down is by grooming, which is nothing more than wetting their fur with saliva rather than water.

ICE
If you’re going to be away all day, put three or four ice cubes into your cat’s water bowl before you head out.
Fill a small drink bottle with cold water and leave it in the freezer overnight. In the morning, wrap the bottle in a towel and put it in your cat’s favorite lounging spot. Don’t fill the bottle to the top, as the water expands when it freezes and may pop the bottle open.

SAFETY
Always check sheds and greenhouses before shutting doors. Cats can find their way inside if they are looking for a shady spot to cool down in, and it is best to avoid trapping them inside as they could become dehydrated or overheat.
Ensure that your cat is microchipped so that if they end up locked in someone else’s shed or wanders off, you can both be reunited as quickly as possible.
