**1. Heatstroke prevention and cooling are the key**

Cats have weak body temperature regulation ability, and continuous high temperature can easily cause heatstroke. It is recommended to control the air conditioning temperature at around 26℃ to avoid direct cold wind. You can place ice pads or wet towels in a cool place, and wipe the foot pads with wet wipes every day to assist in heat dissipation. Avoid going out at noon, and closed compartments are absolutely forbidden.

**2. Scientific hydration to prevent dehydration**

In summer, cats need to increase their water intake by 30%, and it is recommended to place 3-4 running water sources. Freeze-dried food can be rehydrated or homemade salt-free broth can be used to increase interest in drinking water. The water content of wet food is as high as 75%, which can replace some dry food. If you find signs of dehydration such as reduced urination and sticky gums, you need to replenish electrolyte water immediately.

**3. Be alert to parasite outbreaks**

The hot and humid environment accelerates the reproduction of fleas and ticks. It is recommended to use drops to deworm every month. Frequent entry and exit of air-conditioned rooms can easily cause colds, and lactoferrin can be supplemented to enhance immunity. Disinfect utensils regularly and clean up overnight food in time to avoid bacterial enteritis.

**IV. Early identification of emergency situations**

The early symptoms of heat stroke are rapid panting, drooling, and unstable gait. Move to a cool place immediately, wet the ear tips and groin with cold water, and avoid ice compresses. If vomiting and diarrhea occur or if you have not eaten for 24 hours, organ damage may have occurred and you should seek medical attention in time. It is recommended to save the 24-hour pet emergency phone number in advance to prevent problems before they happen.
