Protect Your Pets From the Sun – Rays, Cats and Dogs

Urinary problems in cats can be a painful and recurring problem. Cats with weakened immune systems, such as those that are already ill or elderly, are at a greater risk for urinary issues. Although there are other causes, bacteria is often to blame for bladder problems in cats. Animals that are overweight or that have long hair tend to be less able to clean the feces from around their genitals and this can predispose them to bladder infections. In many cases, these problems in cats can be greatly reduced, or avoided entirely with preventative care.

Of course, little persuasion should be needed as to the prudence of taking care in the sun. It may surprise some to learn that animals too can be just as susceptible to the sun’s rays, and family pets that spend a lot of time outdoors can be at a far greater risk of developing skin cancer than those confined to an indoor environment.

For example, dogs with short white coats and light coloured skin such as Dalmatians, Bull Terriers, Whippets and Greyhounds are most at risk from developing sun-induced disorders later in life.

More Water

You should also consider your cat’s water source. Tap water that has chemicals in it that may not be appealing to your cat and so it may not drink as much as it needs. This can cause urine to thicken and slow down. The cat won’t eliminate all of the urine from the bladder and this will encourage bacterial growth. Make sure that your cat has access to clean, pure water at all times. You can’t make him drink it but making it available when he wants it may help prevent urinary problems.

No cat or dog likes to be stuck indoors – especially in the warm summer months – so it probably is wise to adopt preventative measures to minimise the chances of it suffering from sun-related ailments. However, as with anything in life, nothing can offer a 100% protection guarantee.

If your cat shows improvement with these changes, then continue with them to ensure he doesn’t have recurrences. Urinary problems in cats must be monitored closely. If you can’t see any improvement or if he isn’t producing any urine at all, then it is important to take him to the vet.

Because they are so affectionate and enjoy cuddling, you are likely to receive more licks, and kisses. When the saliva dries, it can easily flake off and become airborne causing problems for those who suffer with allergies and allergic asthma
