First, let me answer the second question. Cat moss is a skin disease caused by fungi, and this fungal infection is not only for cats of. So if your own resistance is low and you have close contact with cats that have moss, you may also be infected. However, the probability of spreading cat moss to humans is relatively low. Generally, healthy adults should wash their hands and disinfect their hands frequently after touching cats.
Let's talk about how to treat and prevent cat moss.
[during treatment]
1. Shave the cat around the affected part of the cat, then use warm water to soften the hard skin, and then gently wipe the external medicinal cotton swab to help the skin absorb the drug faster. If the cat has a violent reaction, soothe it, put it on an Elizabethan ring after applying the medicine to prevent it from licking.
2. Supplement the cat with more nutrition, cook cat food twice a week and prescribe meat for it to help it heal quickly, and appropriately feed the cat with their special vitamins, taurine and other nutrients.
3. Pay close attention to the cat’s condition during the recovery period to see if there are new cat moss, new hard lumps or protrusions on the cat’s skin, and some dander next to it is the new cat moss. These places are also Take medicine.
4. Usually, cats should be exposed to the sun to sterilize and disinfect, and windows should be opened for ventilation at home. Use pet-specific chemicals for regular disinfection at home, especially floors, furniture, and things that cats frequently touch daily, such as sleeping cat litters and mats.
[Daily Prevention]
1. Environmental disinfection. Keep a clean cat’s living environment. Fibers and wool fabrics that cats can easily become fungi transmission media. These things should be washed frequently and disinfected frequently at home.
2. Take your cats out as little as possible. There are too many bacteria and fungi outside. After holding other cats, you must wash your hands and disinfect or even change clothes before you can touch your own cat, because it is very likely that other cats have brought cat moss fungi on your hands.
3. Enhance cat's resistance, supplement cat nutrition daily, give them professional cat food and occasionally supplement some nutrients, and cook cat food two or three times a week.
4. Bathe less cats, especially when they are vaccinated, sterilized, or sick, and should be washed less in winter. Generally, wipe them with special disinfectant wipes for cats occasionally. The cats have the ability to clean themselves. Bathing cats should also use appropriate bath lotion, because their skin stratum corneum is very thin, it is best to choose imported special bath lotion.
