Cats and snow days together more matching Oh!

Snowflakes are the natural beauty props for cats

By PhoenixPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

Cats are very fond of snowy days and on snowy days cats can fully enjoy digging and exploring. Cats that can go out and play will generally be active at all times on snowy days, but will not travel far and will generally play near home.

Some cats are mindful of their paw prints in the snow, and smart older cats will deliberately destroy some of their footprints. Other cats will avoid having their footprints tracked by changing their pace.

Cats are fond of finding tree holes and hibernating hedgehogs on snowy days. Under tree branches, dead bushes, and loose soil on snowy days are places where cats like to dig.

It is important to note that cats should not stray too far from home on snowy days. Because of the reflective snow and the smell being masked, some cats that go out on snowy days are prone to not being able to find their way home.

If you have a small yard at home, it is perfect for cats to play in the snow. Cats will run in the snow and will jump constantly. If you place some cat toys in the snow, the cat will have more fun playing.

For some newly grown cats over 9 months old, seeing a snowy day for the first time is very exhilarating. Many cats will show their amazement when they touch snow for the first time.

Some older cats who are familiar with snow will be much more subdued. Older cats in the family will take some younger cats to play in the snow, and the older cats will observe the kittens playing in a higher place where there is no snow.

Because of snowy days, some animals will go to human areas to avoid snowflakes and wind to hide. Some domestic cats will seize such opportunities to go to these animals to play, such as will chase the hidden rabbits.

Some cats with a feral nature like to exercise their hunting skills in snowy weather. They will set ambushes in the snow and try to catch animals such as mice that do not hibernate.

Many cats will look much better in the snow. This is because the reflection of the snow sets off the beauty of the cat's fur. Some cats with heavier stripe colors will look more handsome and handsome in the snow.

Cats that come back from playing in the snow cannot immediately enter a very hot house with heaters, which can cause them to catch a cold. It needs to be dried off first and then enter an unheated area.

Cats with white or light-colored fur have good protective coloring in the snow. It may be difficult for owners to spot light-colored cats that scatter and run away. If you are worried about losing your cat, you can use props such as cat bells or cat clothes.

Some cats are fond of taking home the small animals they catch after a snow day hunt. This is the time to pay attention to hygiene as much as possible, some rotten parts are not suitable for cats to eat.

No matter how long your cat has been playing in the snow, you should help your cat wipe its body with a dry towel when it comes home. Cats that have frequent opportunities for free-ranging will be better able to take care of their fur, while purely domestic cats will need human help.

As a relative of the feline family, tigers also love snow days. Some of their characteristics are highly similar to those of cats. However, some tigers will be more agitated on snowy days due to depredation pressure.
