For friends who have a cat for the first time, first of all, we should know whether the cat is healthy, especially the kitten we want to buy, to prevent being cheated by the cat dealer and ensure the health of the cat in the future!
Check the fur: touch the texture of the kitten's fur, whether it is smooth and tangled, and look for fleas or other pests.
Check your ears: kittens' ears should be clean and dry, and make sure they are not filled with earwax.
Check the eyes and nose: the third eyelid should not protrude; Eyes should be clean and bright; The nose should be moist.
Check the mouth and teeth: healthy kittens have pink mouths, white teeth and no inflammation in their gums.
Check the anus: lift the cat's tail and look for signs of diarrhea. The anus should be clean and free of feces.
Check the abdomen: Touch the lower part of the cat's abdomen with one hand. The abdomen should be slightly round and not stiff. Find out if there is a lump (hernia phenomenon), and then let the cat walk freely to see if it is lame.
