When catching a cold, be sure to let the cat drink more water to keep the body hydrated. You can put more pots on the basis of daily drinking water and control the water temperature around room temperature. At the same time, you can try to add a small amount of fish soup or warm milk to improve the cat's interest in drinking water.
If you find that the cat is seriously ill and has symptoms such as thirst and dry eyes, you can consider adding some salt and sugar to the cat's oral rehydration solution, but you must pay attention to using it according to the instructions.
2. Provide more high-protein foods.
During a cat's cold, the body needs more nutrition to enhance immunity. Therefore, you can supplement some high-protein foods, such as chicken, beef, fish and so on, to help cats recover faster.
When preparing food for cats, we must pay attention to the freshness of ingredients and avoid giving too much or too little food. In addition, cats may lose their appetite when they catch a cold. At this time, you can try to provide some soft food for cats to stimulate their appetite.
3, the right amount of vitamin C.
Vitamin C is a nutrient that can enhance immunity, which is very helpful to accelerate the recovery of cats. You can add some foods rich in vitamin C to your daily diet, such as green peppers, oranges and tomatoes.
It should be noted that vitamin C should not be supplemented excessively to avoid adverse effects on cats. It is recommended to consult a veterinarian or pet professional before taking supplements.
Step 4 avoid irritating food
When a cat catches a cold, irritating food will burden the body and affect recovery. So try to avoid feeding cats spicy, greasy, hard and other irritating ingredients.
At the same time, in order to avoid vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms during the cat's cold, it is necessary to limit some foods that are easy to cause gastrointestinal discomfort, such as milk and human cat food.
