How to Dress your Cat for a Walk in the Snow

Does your cat like to go on walks? If so, make sure you dress her appropriately for a walk in the snow. First, you and your cat should both wear some type of reflective or bright clothing and gear so that you don’t blend in with the snow. If it’s snowing you may want your cat to wear a rain coat to protect against the wet snow. If the snow is soft you will most likely have no problem walking in it. For icy pathways though your cat may need paw protectors to give her traction on the ice and to protect her paws from any chemicals used on the sidewalks to treat the ice. If it’s super cold your cat may need a blanket. Maine Coon’s are pretty well covered in their own fur but a Siamese may be cold because of her thin coat. For more tips and suggestions, give your veterinarians Hyattsville, MD a call.
