Losing someone extremely close to your heart, like your pet cat, can be devastating. But this scenario might be unavoidable depending on elements that may go out of control. Of course, do not lose hope. With the help of your family members, friends, and the entire community, you can find your lost feline friend. And when you do, remember to follow some precautionary measures to ensure that your cat is mentally, physically, and emotionally healthy.
What to do after losing your cat for a few hours and finding her again?
Take
your cat to the vet. Do this immediately after you have reconciled with your
beloved cat. Why? Doing this step will ensure that your cat is in good
condition. What are the things the vet will do? The vet may check for cuts,
bites, ticks, fleas, wounds, and other unusual things that may indicate
something undesirable. The vet will also examine your cat’s weight, blood, and
other body organs for bodily function assessment.
What to do when you found your cat trapped in hard-to-reach areas, like the roof and tree?
Contact
your community authorities, including the animal control and fire department.
Wildlife removal services may also be of help. Ensure that your cat is calm
during the entire saving procedure. How? Speak to her quietly, cover her eyes,
pet her. Stay alert not to get scratched or bitten. You may use muzzles,
blankets, or gloves for protection.
