I believe that many pet owners will not take their cats out for a walk. After all, if you want to walk your pet, it would be great to have a dog at the beginning.
But recently a netizen said that he eventually caused a disaster because he took the cat out, which made him regret it.
Let's listen to the story of netizens (for the convenience of narrative, it will be told in the first person):
My cat is meowed. I am over one year old. I have been raising it for a year. I am in good health and have never had any illness.
Since taking Miaomiao home, it has never left the house except for getting vaccinated. It is also in the air box to get vaccinated, and it has also taken its own car, so Miaomiao has never left the house at all.
When I went out to work that day, I saw someone walking a Siamese cat on a leash, which felt quite fun. Out of curiosity and trying it out, I thought about finding a day to walk the Meow Meow and see how it reacted.
So, I bought a cat walking leash online. After the leash arrived, I couldn't wait to put it on and then tried to take it downstairs for a walk.
Unexpectedly, Meow Meow, who is usually very well-behaved, refuses to walk out of the house and drags his body hard.
I thought that Miaomiao had never seen the beauty of the outside world. She was a "frog in the well" in this small place at home all day, so she was unwilling to go out. Maybe when it saw the wonderful world outside, she would be bothered to go out every day!
So I carried it downstairs directly, but in the crowded community, Miaomiao seemed even more scared and looked for places to hide everywhere.
A few minutes later, something even more wrong with Meow Meow. It began to twitch all over and foam at the mouth. Only then did I realize that Meow Meow was in a bad situation. When I realized it, I had immediately taken it home, but when Meow Meow returned home, she stopped moving, no longer breathed, and lost her symbol of life.
I didn't know what was going on, so I took Miaomiao to the pet hospital to see why Miaomiao went so suddenly. After the examination, the pet doctor said, "Miaomiao lost her life quickly because of stress response caused by over-tension and fear. The suffocation and renal failure caused by stress response."
I didn't expect that the first time I took Miaomiao out for a walk, it lost its life. If it weren't for my whim, wanting to know the reaction of walking the cat, or if I didn't forcefully carry it out when Meow Meow went out when I resisted and went out, Meow Meow wouldn't have died.
I really regret it and blame myself, and I also want to say to the shovelers that many cats are not suitable for going out for a walk. Don’t let your cats take this risk for their lives just for a moment of curiosity, otherwise it will be too late to regret it.
This is the tragedy caused by netizens taking their cats out for a walk. All shovelers should also take it as a warning and never walk the cat casually.
Why are cats afraid of going out for a walk?
Now, most pet cats have been kept in captivity at home since they were born and have basically never seen the outside world, so their adaptability is very poor. Putting it in a human environment at once will make it very scary, resulting in a strong stress response, and in severe cases it may even die.
Which cats are suitable for walking?
In fact, not all cats cannot be walked. For example, pastoral cats who have been jumping in rural yards since childhood and have strong adaptability, or Siamese cats and Maine cats with dogs with cores, they prefer the outside world and are suitable for walking.
Of course, this depends on the cat's adaptability. If the cat doesn't like to go outside, don't force it.
In the process of raising cats, in addition to paying attention to the cat's psychological condition, you should also pay more attention to its diet. After all, this has a lot to do with the cat's health. If a cat eats poorly, it will lead to poor physical fitness and poor development. It is recommended that pet owners choose a balanced and high-quality cat food for it.
Conclusion: Can you walk your cat?
