Why pets fade in the spring

Why pets fade in the spring

Spring molt – natural process of updating of indumentum at wild animals. Usually the same happens also at pets to only that difference that seasonal changes are not so obvious to pets as wild (they live by electric light, heating devices, etc.) therefore also "mode" of a seasonal molt at them can get off.

Instruction

1. Some pets fade nearly all the year round, but in the spring this process all the same in most cases escalates. What it is necessary to do to owners at the same time?

2. It is important to understand whether normally there is a process of a molt: whether wool shreds climbs, i.e. it is too plentiful whether it sputyvatsya, does not grow dull (that can speak about a lack of vitamins). Other symptoms of avitaminosis – dry skin, cracks in corners of a mouth, a problem with digestion. For prevention of avitaminosis in a diet of your favourite there have to be vitamins and minerals. Consult with the expert.

3. If you feed your dog or a cat with natural products, it is necessary to give special medicines within one month, and then to take a break for two weeks. If you give them an industrial forage, special vitamin and mineral complexes are not necessary (if the animal feels normally).

4. It is important to look after the pet's wool, combing out it by means of a special brush or a fine-tooth comb. It is necessary to do it accurately, turning process into caress that the animal got used and did not resist, otherwise it will be aggressive-minded. It is good to accustom him to combing of wool since childhood. Dogs usually postpone this procedure easier, and here cats can be choosier.

5. To understand whether the molt began, it is possible just to pull slightly at wool and to look whether there is no too large amount of wool at you in a hand. The most plentiful molt usually passes in the first week therefore at this time it is better to comb out the pet daily. It helps to get rid of dead wool in time and to avoid koltun. In nature animals get rid of dead wool by means of natural "hairbrushes" – bushes, frequent branches of trees, etc., and in house conditions owners have to provide this care. If to follow these simple rules, process of a molt will be less painful for hosts.
