Most of owners of cats and cats concern the pets as if those were unreasonable children, and are very much frightened when the animal, for example, chokes with something. Actually it is valid there can be very hazardously to health and even lives of a cat.
The temperament at animals differs as well as at people. Cats and cats can serve as an excellent example of it. Even how these animals eat, it is possible to judge that, their nervous system is how excitable: more active and uneasy cats usually always swallow a forage as if managed to get hungry seriously, and all this in spite of the fact that from the moment of the last meal there could pass no more than several hours. Respectively, such animals have a high risk to choke at meal time.
How to understand that the cat choked?
In the beginning it is necessary to specify what is meant a word "choked" - it means that in a throat or a gullet of a cat the foreign matter got stuck. Most often these animals choke with a forage or wool which gets into a mouth and a digestive tract of a cat when he is licked. Cases when in a drink, a gullet or a stomach of an animal the sharp bone or, for example, a needle gets stuck are even more dangerous. The fact is that cats have on a surface of the language special rigid fibers which do not allow these pets to spit out what already appeared in a mouth. For this reason of a cat and cats sometimes swallow, apparently, absolutely inedible things.
If the animal choked, then it has desires which are not stopping, and only accruing to vomiting which cannot be confused with common cough. If they remain unsuccessful and also the cat cannot swallow anything – either food, or water, or own saliva – that with high degree of probability can be said that your pet really choked and the foreign matter causes irritation its gentle drinks and a gullet. In that case it is necessary to work immediately.
The cat choked – as to help him?
If you are sure that your favourite choked with a forage or wool, that is not any firm subject with keen edges which can damage animal interiors, then you can try to correct a situation independently. Try by means of the syringe without needle to pour in several milligrams of vaseline oil in its mouth, and after a while turn an animal headfirst and accurately stir up. Oil will grease a digestive tract of your cat, and the foreign matter will slip out it. If you see that at a cat there comes suffocation – language and mucous an animal get a cyanotic shade and also to it to pant – that it demonstrates that the foreign matter blocks normal passability of airways. In this case urgently carry a cat to the veterinarian, the account can go for minutes. It will not be possible to do without the qualified medical care and in case the cat swallowed something that it is capable to damage bodies of his digestive tract and also in case your attempts to help an animal were not crowned with success.
