How to Keep your Cat Warm in a Power Outage

broken image

If you lose power in the middle of the winter make sure you have a backup plan for yourself and your pets. If you have a cat that has a thick coat (i.e. a Maine Coon) he will probably be well in the colder temperatures. However, a thin coat cat like the Manx might need a blanket or coat to provide warmth. If you have a fireplace, use it to warm your home. Keep your cat at a safe distance from the flames. Use a fire guard for added protection. Keep plenty of blankets available for your cat to cuddle in for warmth. If the house gets too cold and you can’t stay then take your cat with you. If it’s too cold for you then it’s too cold for your cat. Give your Dunn, NC veterinary clinic a call for shelter or housing recommendations for you and your cat.
