My family has two masters, the old man named Maomao, the gaygay boy, two and a half years old, Virgo, now my mother is raising, the second child Corgi is called pumpkin, a stubborn boy, 6 months old, Gemini, Bring your own now. I did a lot of homework when raising Maomao, and I didn’t check the information when I got to the pumpkin. Maybe I was lazy because I had previous experience. As expected, I raised the first child as a pig and raised the second child as a pig. Let me tell you about my little experience, hoping to help the shit shovel officer who just took office.
1. Breed selection
Cats are relatively cold, so there are fewer requirements for shoveling officers. The only thing that needs to be considered is to raise long-haired cat (such as ) Muppets , Persian cat, etc.) or shorthair cat (such as British short, beauty short, etc.). Long-haired cats shed a lot of snow during the shed period, and short-haired cats save a lot of trouble.
The choice of a dog needs to balance different factors. Generally speaking, it is not recommended to raise large dogs such as huskies, Satsuma and golden retrievers if the residential area is relatively small. For dogs, there will be limited space for activities. In addition, dogs need to walk 2-3 times a day or even more, so the shovel officer also needs to choose different breeds of dogs according to their own time flexibility. Dogs will be very unhappy if they exercise for more than hours. Similarly, it is also necessary to consider whether dogs love to shed hair. For example, Corgi sheds twice a year and once for half a year, or teddy, such as , poodle , which requires regular grooming by the shovel officer. . Relatively speaking, short-haired dogs like are much easier to take care of.
2. How to buy cats/dogs
There are two general ways to buy them, regular kennels/cathouses or self-breeding. If the budget is sufficient, you can choose a formal kennel cattery. Such cats/dogs are in good condition and healthy. Parents are generally competition-level, but the price is generally more than 10,000. Or just choose to breed at home, the price is more down-to-earth. Both Maomao and Pumpkin are bred in-house, and it is recommended that you choose to bred only one variety, otherwise the chances of skewering will be very high. In addition, you can refer to the looks of the cat/dog’s parents, and the most important thing is to pick it up personally!
Of course, if you can, please choose adoption instead of buying, and give the poor little cute a warm home.
Third, the choice of cats/dogs
First, you need to figure out whether you like to be more lively or quieter. A bit more lively is usually more naughty. A bit quieter may be due to a natural personality, or it may be due to illness. Generally, the health of the pet can be judged by whether the nose is moist, whether there are secretions around the eyes, and whether the area around the anus is clean. In addition, you can judge whether there is trauma or internal injury by gently pressing the pet's stomach, spine, etc., and use toys to tease the pet. Is there spirit. But the most important thing to choose a cat/dog is to look at fate, and fate doesn’t matter to other things!
The pets that are generally sold are babies from 2-3 months old. The most afraid of this age is cat plague canine plague. It is recommended to talk to the seller and take the pet to the hospital for a comprehensive physical examination. Provide refunds and exchanges for problems, avoid the week dog week cat to the greatest extent!
IV. Preparations for pets before entering the house
1. Food: prepare enough cat food/dog food. When you receive a pet, please ask the seller to provide a week’s worth of food you are currently eating Cat food/dog food, the food that is three months old needs to be soaked in hot water and then fed.It is best to feed milk cakes. Grain changes need to be done step by step. The first two days are 25% of the new grain, 75% of the old grain, 50% of the new grain and old grain in the middle two days, 75% of the new grain and 25% of the old grain in the next two days. Completely become new food. This is also the reason why you need old food from the seller. The stomach of a 2-month-old baby is very fragile. If you change to a new food, the stomach will not be able to bear it, and it will be easy to diarrhea
2. Choice of cat food/dog food: suggest if conditions permit You must buy natural food, not commercial food. It is better to spend more money to feed better grains to be healthy and healthy than to spend more money to see a doctor. Secondly, when choosing dog food and cat food, you can refer to the ingredients inside. The first three ingredients contain high starch content such as soybeans and potatoes, please don't buy them! The first three ingredients are meat is a good natural food. Pumpkin and Maomao are all cravings, 90-100 yuan/1kg.
3. Water: Both cats and dogs like to drink flowing water. Cats especially, the shoveling officer who raises cats should prepare a circulating waterer for the owner. In addition, cats do not like to drink with food. Water, so do not put the water basin and the rice basin in the same place! If you use ordinary water basins, it is best to clean them every day to avoid bacterial growth.
4. Toilet: The shoveling officer who raises cats needs to prepare cat litter , cat litter box, and small shovel. The shoveling officer who raises a dog needs to prepare a dog toilet, dog diapers, inducers (to lure dogs to go to the toilet at a fixed point), deodorant (dogs urinate and defecate in the wrong place, and the smell should be completely eliminated, otherwise they will be in the future. Urinate and defecate in the same place).
5. Toys: When I was young, cats and dogs were very lively and naughty, so the shit shovel officers should prepare toys for their masters to consume their energy, and they can also accompany them for us when we are away.
6. Find a good home accessory 24h pet hospital in advance to prepare for emergency! I usually look for pet hospitals through Dianping Dian. Generally, if there are bad reviews or more than 2 bad reviews, I will pass it. I need to remind everyone that you can ignore the general high-quality reviews and the extremely detailed text. Look at the reviews of some non-premium accounts. Many high-quality reviews are written by merchants who spend money to find someone to write.
7. Understand the susceptibility of the pet breed you choose, such as , which is susceptible to kidney disease. (Develop a good habit of drinking more water,As well as the very good beef tablets that protect the kidneys), Garfield is the nasal branch, Corgi is a skin disease (you can eat egg-pin fat), etc. Prevent it from childhood!
5. Matters needing attention
1. When not at home, be sure to close doors and windows to prevent pets from being lost or injured.
2. Try not to feed humans. If you follow the above-mentioned method of choosing dog food/cat food, the pet’s nutrition is absolutely sufficient and balanced. Human food contains high salt/oil, and if you eat too much, it will shed hair. , And increase the burden on the kidneys, no harm to all benefits. If you are afraid that your pet will eat the same taste every day, you can try to cook cat meal/dog meal for your pet. The practice is generally boiled beef, chicken, fish, etc. without any seasoning + blanched vegetables + cat food/ Dog food + egg yolk (no egg white) is fine.
3. Don't take a bath before all the vaccines are given.
4. Do not feed milk to cats or dogs. Their intestines and stomachs lack the enzymes to digest milk. Goat milk can be used instead of
5. Regular deworming, once a month before one year old. insect. It is recommended to buy a neck band that can repel worms within three months, and wait for three months before deworming in vivo and in vitro. Once a year after one year old, dogs who often play on the lawn can choose to increase the frequency.
6. Cats often lick their own hair, they will eat the cat's hair in the belly but can't digest it. The shoveling officer can regularly give the owner a hair-melting cream.
7. It is not recommended to feed the dog bones. During the gnawing process, the bones will split into many small thorns, which can easily scratch the dog's esophagus and trachea, which can seriously endanger life.
8. Every Coyotito is very greedy. You must train from childhood to avoid eating food from strangers and the ground. Pumpkins pulled blood once through the trash can.
9. A normal dog can take a bath once a month, and it must be wiped and blown dry after each bath to avoid skin diseases in the future.It is also necessary to trim the dog’s nails regularly (do not cut the blood line) and squeeze the anal gland .
10. Keep some first aid medicines. For example, my dog’s gastrointestinal problems are not good, and the cat’s eyes are not good. Every time I go to the hospital, I will prepare more medicines prescribed by the doctor to avoid similar symptoms.
Every little animal is a little angel sent by God to protect us. They may be just a part of our life, and we are all of them. They may occasionally make mistakes to make us unhappy, but they bring us The happiness that comes must far outweigh the little troubles it brings us. Once you hold their paws, please don't give up!
