Can you believe it? Every winter, 60% of stray cats cannot survive the winter, is it exaggerated? In fact, it is not an exaggeration at all, and even the further north this value is higher. Because the winter in the north is so cold that the stray cats have nowhere to hide. The cold freezes everything, even food scraps in trash cans and sewage on the ground. You can put yourself in the picture and imagine a scene where a kitten is hungry and curled up in the wind and snow for 24 hours and is wrapped in the cold. , what conditions are required? Food, hair, heat, stray cats need to find enough food before winter.
Some of these foods will be converted into fat and stored in the cat’s abdomen. This thing is called a belly band, also called a small belly, and it is specially used by cats to store fat. The fat in the belt ensures that the cat doesn’t starve to death on days without food. You can touch your cat, there must be, but most of the stray cats don’t have enough food to send out thicker hair to resist the coming cold. You can see that the stray cats in the cold winter are generally very Fat, first of all, because the thin and hairless can’t survive the cold winter at all. Secondly, the so-called fat is not a lot of meat, but thick hair. If you have touched it, you must understand that it is called puffiness.
In addition to fat and hair, a heat source is also required. The temperature in the northern part of the earth will plummet to minus ten degrees in winter, and the hair is not enough to keep warm. At this time, cats need to find a heat source to absorb heat. That’s why stray cats are always seen getting into cars or sleeping on tires in winter, because they need the residual heat from the engine to stay alive. Do you still think 60% is a high figure? The colder ones are still to come. After the garbage classification was implemented in 2019, the trash cans were all raised and covered, and the stray cats could not find food at all. There are also very few heat sources in the north, and 90% of stray cats cannot find a heat source.
If you have the habit of feeding stray cats, you can recall that after every winter, you will feed a lot less stray cats. Don’t ask me where I’ve been. One might think that there are 60% of stray cats every year. It is a good thing to not survive the winter, but from the food chain, too few stray cats are not good for us, because even urban communities will have rodents. Once the number of stray cats in the community is reduced or not, the number of rats will greatly increase. The consequences will be miserable, and you won’t even be able to sleep well. For us humans in winter, in addition to being cold, there are snow scenes and hot pot, but for stray cats, it is a Shura field. However, if you are willing to adopt instead of buying a stray cat,
