British short-haired cat is cute and docile. They were domesticated by humans long ago. After 1970, their coat color and appearance began to change. The body becomes smaller and smaller, and the diversity of hair color becomes rich.

All the changes are towards elegant style.

The age of a British short-haired cat can be determined by its teeth. The average life span of British short haired cats is 13 to 16 years. Different British shorthair cats have different lifespans.

Its living habits.

2. Character.

The British short-haired cat is bold and curious, but very gentle and won't lose his temper or bark.

3. Exercise.

British shorthair cats like to sleep close to their owners on your legs. But cats that do not exercise for a long time are easy to get fat, and overweight cats will also have problems with their physical conditions.

4. Hair shedding.

The hair of the British short-haired cat is as soft and thick as flannel. It rarely falls off and is easy to take care of. However, cats lose their hair all year round, especially in spring and autumn when they change their hair.

Cats will swallow their hair into their stomachs when they comb their hair, and over time they will form hairballs in their stomachs.

If you can't vomit out through vomiting, can't be expelled from the body through the intestinal tract in time, and stay in the stomach, it will form hairball blockage, affect appetite, and even endanger life.

It also has many shortcomings.

It doesn't like sports. It causes various obesity diseases. Gastrointestinal function is weak, easy to diarrhea and vomiting. In the hair changing season, hair loss is serious.

There are genetic diseases. There are two kinds of genetic diseases, one is hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the other is polycystic kidney disease.

British short-haired cats generally have genetic diseases between the ages of one and three.

Therefore, we should pay special attention to the accidents that may occur during the period from one to three years of age, and conduct scientific feeding to reduce the probability of cat accidents.

Cardiomyopathy is the biggest killer.

Generally speaking, the incidence of this disease in male cats is much higher than that in female cats, and the incidence of overweight cats will naturally be higher.

Curing method.

(1) Pay more attention to the hardness of the food suitable for cats, supplement calcium, iron, vitamins, and other trace elements in an appropriate amount, and change to different tastes.

(2) If possible, brush your pet's teeth to reduce bacterial invasion caused by gingival inflammation.

(3) Use a moist cotton pad to remove excess mucus and often clean the skin around your eyes.

(4) Joint pain is a common problem in elderly pets. If it can't move regularly, you can gently massage its muscles or move its limbs and joints when it is resting.

The affinity between man and nature and the friendly coexistence between man and animals is the premise of natural balance and harmony.
