CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Can shaving a kitten's hair help it grow better?

Whether it is a long-haired cat or a short-haired cat, the body is covered with a layer of hair, which is their outer coat and the first impression they give people. However, when we walk on the street, we will also see many cats with shaved hair. Especially in summer, cats will be shaved bald by their owners. So, what are the advantages and disadvantages of shaving cats?

The benefits of shaving a cat's hair are that it can reduce the trouble caused by hair loss, and the owner does not have to comb the cat's hair all day long. In summer, it can also cool down and prevent heatstroke, so there is no need to worry about the cat getting heatstroke due to the warm weather.

However, shaving a cat also has disadvantages. In summer, without the protection of hair, cats are particularly vulnerable to mosquito bites, and exposed skin is more likely to be burned by the sun. In winter, if a cat is shaved, it will become more afraid of the cold and more likely to catch a cold and get sick.

Most importantly, cats attach great importance to their hair. When cats are shaved, they will be unhappy and not eat because they think they are not beautiful after shaving. They cannot accept themselves because of shaving and feel very different from their own kind. This inferiority complex needs the comfort of the owner, otherwise it will cause serious psychological damage to the cat.
