Question
im worried about my cat because since she is black shes been getting incredibly hot and im worried that she might get heat stroke.
could you advise me on what to do?
i thankyou in advance for any information.

Answer
Hi Rosie,

I presume your cat lives outside??  If so, as long as she has shade and plenty of water she will be fine.  The color of her coat has nothing to do with it.  Animals get heat stroke when there is no shelter from the sun, and inadequate water supply.  

God Bless,
Becky

Expertise

I am not a breeder,so please direct any breeding and/or birthing questions to an "expert" that is. I love all cats but my favorites are the Rex and Siamese. I used to show Cornish Rex as a hobby but have not been able to for a few years. Right now I have three Siamese and one Cornish Rex. As a former veterinarian assistant, I can help you with general healthcare issues. Being a cat owner for years, I will be glad to answer any behaviour and/or nutrition questions too. Please remember, I am NOT a Veterinarian, so if your kitty is seriously ill, please do not hesitate to contact a Vet.
