How long till you let a cat out?

if it's for the first time then about 4 weeks or so, when you feel it's ready really, so that it won't run away or anything. If you are planning to let a cat be an outside cat, put an ID tag on its collar with your name, address and phone number, also the cat's name if you want. If your cat will not wear a collar, have a microchip put in its neck by the vet. It is painless and you need to have a form of identification on your cat so that if it gets lost you will get it back. Just telling you so you won't lose your cat. ;)


Could you put your cat on a lead and let it go in your back garden with you if it is an indoor cat?

You could try, But she/he probably wouldn't like it and would refuse to move. Good luck! Yes. But do not use a choker chain or a regular collar. Their throats are too delicate for a choker chain and the collars will just come right off. Use a harness and leash. And it will take a while for it to get used to it. If you cat is a more nervous cat, you should put only the harness on for short periods of time each day, making them longer gradually, until the cat is used to it. Then attach the leash and repeat. Then you can take the cat out. Some cats take right to it, however, and need no training.

When is it OK to put flea collar on pregnant cat that was spayed yesterday?

If the cat was spayed, it is no longer pregnant. I would assume a flea collar would be safe now that the cat is no longer pregnant. It might be a good idea to not put a flea collar on her until her wound is completely healed and the stitches removed, just to be on the safe side (flea collars contain very strong chemicals). If you are still unsure, you should consult your veterinarian.

Should a collar on cat be loose or firm?

I think as a 9 year old you should keep a cats collar on firmly so it does not fall off. But make sure it's comfortable for your cat! Somewhere in between where the collar will not just fall off by accident, but loose enough so that the cat can get it off in case of an emergency. If you get one of the breakaway type of cat collars it will help. Another tip is to put your index finger between the cat's neck and collar after putting it on. If your finger fits easily, without causing gasping or stress on the cat's part, then it is in a good position. Check it using this method as the cat grows to make sure it does not become too small and uncomfortable.


What can cause a cat that has no flea collar nor new treatment of any kind to lose its top coat in a patch of skin without the presence of rash or fleas?

I had a cat lose fur and develop sores after I put a flea collar on him. I have since found out that many cats are allergic to flea collar drugs. Maybe this is your problem. If not then I do not know, based on my experience.
