This little kitten surprising when he see snow for the first time. We know, we know, snow is all very exciting. The second those first teeny tiny flakes fall, we lose the plot – even it does only last for five minutes and fails to settle. Not to sound like your mum, but in the midst of all the snow-related joy, it’s important to think about safety. Not just your own safety (please be careful on icy roads), but the safety of cats, who may struggle to deal with snow – especially when it’s their first time having a white Christmas. Yep, as cute as little pawprints in the snow may be, you can’t just let cats run around and play in the snow with wild abandon. There are important things to remember. Cats Protection recommends that everyone follows a few simple tips to keep cats – all cats, not just their own – safe when it’s snowing. First off, it’s key to provide shelter for both strays and cats who are allowed outdoors so that they don’t end up shivering out in the cold for hours. Wedge doors of sheds and outbuildings slightly open (so cats who do manage to get inside don’t get locked in) or install a catflap, or create a mini snow shelter cats can take cover under. A sturdy cardboard box under plastic sheeting will do the trick. Speaking of cat flaps, you’ll need to make sure your cat’s access point doesn’t become frozen over or blocked by snow. Check it regularly.
It’s important that your own cat has access to water indoors, as water points outdoors may have frozen over. Your kitty needs to stay hydrated even when it’s chilly outside. Make sure they’re well fed, too – running around in the cold can really build up their appetite. Check your car to make sure cats aren’t using it to steer clear of the cold, looking under the hood and banging lightly on the car to alert any cat that it’s time to move. If it’s the first time your cat’s seeing snow, it’s handy to introduce them to its wonders.
