Cats

Have you ever wondered if animals have rights? We are not only referring to our friends the cats but to all the animals on the planet. All of them have a series of recognized rights and are included in the:

UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF ANIMAL RIGHTS

PREAMBLE

Considering that every animal possesses rights.

Considering that the ignorance and disregard of these rights
have led and continue to lead man to commit crimes against
nature and against animals.

of the right to the existence of other species of animals

Considering that man commits genocide and there is a threat that he will continue to commit it.

Sometimes we find that our cat does not smell as good as we wish And having to bathe it often can be an ordeal because cats hate water and, although they are used to it, it is not the best for them (because they lose properties in their hair).

Before it was said that perfumes and shampoos in cats they are bad for them because what they do is burn their hair. However, there are some products that are not as bad as they may seem at first.

Normally perfumes should be applied at a distance of between 10 to 15 cm from the animal's body, avoiding contact with eyes, mucous membranes, armpits and irritated and / or injured areas.

And speaking of perfumes, one of the perfumes that we have found for cats is from the brand Royal puppies (which also works for dogs).

It is a perfume that has four fragrances, two for kittens and two for kittens. These products are approved by SENASA, and made by a
Laboratory dedicated to the development of products for the care of
animal with what should not be dangerous for them (unless you are allergic to them).

Ok, I admit it, as soon as I saw this product for cats I told myself, everyone should know this because it is a so strange, little known and original accessory that she had to talk about him.

Surely from the title you already know what it is: artificial nails that are put on cats to prevent them from damaging furniture and upholstery when they sharpen their nails. 

These nails are transparent covers (so that they are not too noticeable and the cats themselves may want to take them off) made of a very soft and light vinyl polymer, so that they do not bother the animal at all, which can walk, extend its claws and even scratch normally.

All the instructions they give us to put them on are very simple:

• We clean the nails
• We cut a little (especially the peak)
• We put the glue on the cover
• We put the cover on the nail.

As you can see, an effective method against damage. Although I suppose all cats will have to get used to them.
