Fur parents shoulder a lot when it comes to their fur babies. Think twice before you buy one. Having one requires all the love and attention from you. Providing them with healthy foods is your utmost priority. You must be aware of the measurements of their meal so that obesity is out of the question. Grooming is your second most concern of all. It is a must regardless of their breed. However, the frequency of grooming differs from one breed to another. Especially for American Shorthairs do not require you to groom them, regularly. The average amount of time grooming them is twice a week.


The advantages of grooming them include:

● Removal of dead hair, and

● Proper distribution of skin oils


Spoiling them with dental health care would be very helpful in preventing periodontal diseases. Weekly trimming of nails is required too. Eyes should be cleaned at least once a week with a clean cotton ball or cloth. Make sure you use a different portion of the same cloth for both eyes. However, for ear care, you must never use cotton swabs because they might harm the interiors of the ear. All these mentioned are ways of preventing the risk of infection spread domestically or to other cats.
