Benefit #1: Daily contact with an animal improves immune defenses

 An English study published in 2018 showed that children who grow up alongside a pet are less likely to develop childhood allergies than those who grow up without animals. When we allow ourselves to be licked by a dog or a cat, we receive bacteria which our body seizes to strengthen its immune defenses. This works especially well in children. Being around a cat early in life also limits the risk of developing asthma. Children also suffer less from respiratory infections and ear infections. Having a dog or cat has also been shown to lower the risk of developing colds or even the flu. More generally, having a dog or a cat at home leads to the consumption of fewer antibiotics.

Sterilized cat. What to do?

  When it comes to feeding a pet, it is necessary to know if he or she has been neutered or not; most domestic cats are spayed. A neutered cat differs greatly from its non-neutered counterpart in lifestyle and metabolic rate, partly due to changes in mood, partly due to hormonal imbalances. The cat may spend much more time eating or persuading the owner to give her food. It is necessary to make it a rule to feed such a cat with special food for neutered cats (such food is enriched with vegetable fiber, necessarily contains sodium and is low in calories) and give it two or three times a day. The rest of the time, keep it out of the reach of the cat, so as not to seduce her and not risk her health and figure. For a sterilized cat weighing 4 kg, which prefers to fall asleep well-fed and spend about 200 kcal of energy per day, an 85g can of wet food and a 30g dry portion will be enough to get enough.

How do cats give birth?

  Cats carry offspring for about 2.5 months. For one birth, both 1-2 kittens and 6-7 are born. The process itself takes several hours and consists of several stages. If you are helping your cat give birth, then you need to know how everything usually goes: Attempts – kittens pass through the birth canal in 4-5 attempts. Birth – kittens come out in the amniotic sac, less often without it. Start breathing – the cat breaks the bladder and licks the born kitten, removing mucus from the respiratory tract. Rupture of the umbilical cord, eating the placenta – after the kittens, the placenta (placenta) comes out, which the cat eats. How many babies were born – so many afterbirths should come out. Human assistance may be required at each stage of the birth of kittens. When all the babies came out, all the amniotic sacs were torn, the cat licked all the children and they suck milk – everything is done. Further assistance will be reduced to the proper care of the pet who has given birth. To k...
