In this webpage, you will learn all about how to take care of your Persian cat!
First of all, Persians should get 90% of their daily calories from animal protein and fat. Persians also have a reputation for being picky eaters, but all Persians eat differently and have different opinions.
Next, your Persian should be groomed a few times a week or their fur will get matted, and if you choose to shave your Persian, you should do it at least once a year to keep them cool during hot weather. To brush your Persian, gently brush them with a wide-toothed metal comb starting at the back of their head and ending at the tail.
Next, you need to know how when you should wash your Persian. You should wash them every two to six weeks by wetting the coat, and cleaning it with a gentle shampoo that matches their fur color so they don't lose their fur color.
Now, you might be asking, should I let my Persian cat outside? Well, outdoor activities might be good for your Persian's health by staying out in the sun, but you shouldn't let them out unsupervised. They enjoy your company a lot, and love attention.
Persian cats sleep a lot, at least 12 to 16 hours a day, and it's okay if they sleep for 20. They are also very deep sleepers, especially kittens and senior cats. Persians are also very affectionate and will not mind snuggling up to you to sleep once they have gotten used to you.
If your Persian cat throws up, do not panic. Some common causes are hairballs, allergy to food, or ingestion to a object that should not be consumed. If they are otherwise fine, withhold food for two hours, and give them water. If they are not fine, seek help immediately from a professional.
If your Persian cat start to scratch their fur, it might be because of fleas, allergies, parasites, or infections. You should eliminate parasites, switching what food their eating, using medications, add scratching posts, and trimming their nails.
remember to keep your Persian cat healthy by: giving them appropriate amounts of water, having their vaccines up to date, cleaning their fur often, help them exercise by giving them toys, trimming their nails and fur, and keeping their eyes clean.
