One of the troubles of raising cats is "hair shedding". Cats are the most suitable pets for lazy people, but if you like fluffy cats, you must be able to tolerate when they shed. Can a cat’s hair be shaved off at will? What are the adverse reactions if it is shaved?

First, let’s analyze the following situations when cats need to be shaved:

1. For cats that have been confirmed to have skin diseases, from a treatment perspective, shaving the cat’s hair before receiving treatment will have a better therapeutic effect and can also prevent the cat’s condition from getting worse.

2. Cats with severe hair loss and frequent licking can be shaved, because shaving can effectively reduce the number of hair balls. Of course, this needs to be analyzed and decided based on the cat's licking and hair spitting.

3. For cats who are really afraid of heat, if the temperature in summer is already very hot and seriously affects the cat’s normal life, you can still shave the cat to help cool down the body.

Secondly, you need to clearly understand the reasons why cats are not suitable for shaving:

1. Generally speaking, it is not recommended to shave cats, but for many reasons (some of the above), shaving is a helpless move. If you don’t feel hot, don’t shave your cat just for fun.

2. The home is not paved with floors or carpets, but with floor tiles or marble. If you shave the cat under this condition, it is easy to catch a cold. Therefore, you should make a reasonable judgment based on your living environment whether you need to shave your cat.

3. A cat with an overly sensitive personality and high self-esteem. For example, especially for male cats without KC, hair is a symbol of maleness to them. Once shaved, it will hurt the cat's self-esteem.

4. If there are more than two cats in the home, and they fight with each other, the fur is also a kind of protection for the cat's skin. If the relationship between the cats in the home is not particularly harmonious and there are fights, try to avoid shaving the cat to avoid injury. .

5. Cats have the habit of going out, and some domestic cats also have the habit of going out. If this is the case, it is not suitable to shave to avoid external injuries.
