Some procedures:

It is necessary for any owner of a cat to be able to carry out some procedures to learn about a state of health of the favourite, in particular, temperature measurement, inventory of a respiration rate and warm reductions etc., for this purpose is not so obligatory to call the veterinary surgeon.

Temperature measurement effect the medical thermometer within 5-7 minutes. The cat put on a table or on other level. Thus the end of the thermometer and an outside anal aperture take up Vaselinum (cream). One arm raise a tail, and another it is vigorous, but cautiously rotary movements introduce the thermometer through an anal aperture into a rectum where it keep, simultaneously insuring a cat from sharp movements which [are bound to strong reduction of a compressor round an anal aperture. The thermometer introduce depth on 3-4 see Then termo-1etr take, wipe cotton wool and an end disinfect. Standard temperature at adult cats 38-39,5 °С. At kittens temperature higher. At young age of kittens it is necessary already to start to accustom to procedure of measurement of temperature.

Inventory of frequency of respirations in a minute effect, observing of locomotions of a thorax of a cat. At an adult cat the norm compounds 20-30 respiratory movements 1 minute. At kittens this index can be and above 40 in a minute. Excess of the specified frequency testifies to an asthma.

(CARDIAC CONTRACTIONS RATES) effect inventory of frequency of warm reductions, imposing dactyls of the right arm on an intrinsic surface of a hip, on a femoral artery. As sphygmus and ЧС (coincide this size it is possible will define! And on frequency of warm jerks for what put an arm palm to a thorax of a cat and consider. The norm for 1 minute is peer to 100-120 reductions. It is possible to register the CARDIAC CONTRACTIONS RATE, using various instrumentation of record of cardiogrammes that will allow to estimate cardiac muscle job more in a complex.

Therefore, having obtained data on temperature, frequency of respirations and sphygmus, and also having considered everything about what it was spoken above if any part of the collected information does not keep within a norm status, that, possibly, for statement of the diagnosis and treatment purpose is required the veterinary expert.

The drug intake is most simply and successfully carried out with a forage: crushing a medicine seat in made an incision to meat or in a globule from a mincemeat. Medicines with off-flavour or an odour are better for seating in special gelatinous sheaths and if the cat does not engorge it to it force.

The owner of a cat one arm clips to it a head, having clasped mouth angles big and index and having inclined a head back so that the nose has been referred by dactyls upwards, and other arm extends an angle of labiums (big and index dactyls press labiums, and centre and big dactyls of other arm in which there is a tablet, seat last on tongue) and pawns a medicine on a tongue root. After that arms clean and induce a cat to swallow a medicine. Or the owner opens to a cat a mouth and the assistant puts a sheath or a medicine on a root of tongue. 3атем the mouth is occluded, the nose rises up and the owner calenders a neck to a cat, forcing eё to swallow a medicine. Here it is necessary to show patience, a seasoning and attention as cats go often on a deceit: pretend, that a medicine have swallowed, and after a while it spit out. The success will be provided only in the event that during all this time the head of a cat is thrown back so that a nose as it became perceptible already, was; It is referred upwards. And all need to be done it quickly enough and dexterously.

If procedure will be preceded by preparation and you will sluggishly react, the cat will be going to with forces and even presence of the assistant will lead to a failure your attempt. Difficulties happen so, that a tablet or a sheath incorrectly put on tongue. It is necessary to put only on a tongue root then the probability of success raises.

If the cat starts to resist, it is necessary to retry attempt of minutes through 5-10.

Liquid medicines most easier to yield, using a syringe with the taken out needle or the pipet. At the moment of uptake of fluid a head of the cat hold the same as and in a case with a tablet, only a pipet or syringe end push in a mouth angle between dens and introduce fluid. The muzzle of the cat after that also rises upwards. For once inject no more than 1-2 ml of fluid if it is necessary to introduce medicine considerable quantities do small intervals between injections.

Ophthalmic medicines. A cat put on CTОЛ. Big or an index finger slightly delay a lower eyelid and lead ointment in the formed space (or instill drops). Thus the nose of a cat should be referred under an angle to horizon on 45 degrees. One arm hold a nose of a cat and simultaneously delay an eyelid, and other arm introduce a medicine. Thus an arm put on a head to a cat over an eye.

Processing of ears. In case of an inflammation its careful cleaning is recommended. It is possible to flush a lumen of an outside acoustic duct antiseptic soap solution or серорастворяющей fluid then it is flushed by water alone or antiseptic fluid. The flushed acoustic duct dry by means of the cotton wool wound on a thin match, and introduce a medicinal preparation prescribed the veterinary surgeon.

The ear can be cleaned by means of a wadded garrot or a thin match with the cotton wool coiled on it. In this case two dactyls of the left arm you undertake an end of an auricle and try to hold it upright over a head of a cat then introduce cautiously web on a match into very narrow acoustic duct. Having deleted a mud, you can introduce the same mean ointment or a liquid medicinal preparation.

Compress. A cloth piece (a linen or a flannel) moisten in warm water (38-45 °С), moisten and impose on the field of a body requiring warming. From above put a piece of parchment or a medical oilcloth, it is possible polyethylene, and from above a cotton wool layer. Then bandage.

Artificial respiration do to cats in case of an apnoea, for example, at a lesion by their electrocurrent. A cat stack on a back and start to bend down rhythmically hinder legs to lobbies or put sideways and start to compress a thorax rhythmically.

Lavage to grass do by means of a syringe or a syringe without a needle in volume of 10 ml. A handpiece insert into an angle of a mouth of a cat. Thus a head hold alighted downwards that fluid was not swallowed. Syntheticly to give a drink a cat if it is in a grave condition and itself does not drink, it is necessary to hold her head lifted upwards and gradually and cautiously to press on a syringe (syringe) that water has not got to a trachea and a cat could сглатывать.

Compulsory (artificial) feeding should be used in the absence of appetite. When the adult nourished cat does not eat within 24 hours it it is not terrible, it does to herself a day of limited intake of food. However longer starvation forces an organism of an animal to spend available reserves for maintenance of vital signs, and it can lead to death of a beast. It is especially necessary to watch constantly consumption of water which should correspond to requirements of an organism, differently it dries, that can faster lead to death, rather than absence of appetite.

The liquid nutrition, boiled or crude yolk, sour-milk products is applied to a forced alimentation basically. It introduce in the same way, as well as syntheticly give to drink. Pastelike (minced boiled fish or meat, curds, a children's feed) put nutrition on the root of an animal a dactyl, a rake, the handle of a small tea spoon.

At one time yield no more than 3-5 teaspoons of a forage or fluid on kg of weight of a cat. Volume excess can call vomiting.
