It’s cool to suck cats, and it’s always good to suck cats. Cats are so cute; how could they be smelly? But many shoveling officials said they couldn’t accept the smell when shoveling cats, so they just wanted to wear it. Put on a gas mask.
There has been a hot topic on Weibo recently. Netizens smelled the rotten smell from the neighbor’s house, and they suspected that something had happened and chose to call the police. As a result, the police broke in and found that the source of the smell was cat poop.
Compared to moving heavy cat food and cat litter, shoveling shit is a relatively effortless job. Still, the problem is that “ten flush toilets” The three-dimensional surround effect that the buttons are broken??? Who has never experienced it before? Who would have thought that this cute little animal, like an angel, would pull poop like a biological weapon?
It is no wonder many pet owners go to the pet store and ask: “What should I do if the cat’s feces is too smelly?” Then the question comes, the pet store needs to prepare gas masks to sell. Are these shit shovelers devastated by “biochemical weapons”?
Diet and health
Possible factors that cause cat poop to smell abnormal are Many; most often mentioned are diet, infection, and digestion.
Diet:
It is often difficult to determine which food component is responsible for odor.
The client may be advised to avoid giving the cat a particular food (or food change) for a period of time, which may help him find the reason. Prey may also be one of the reasons, such as bugs, mice, and small reptiles (of course, cat owners now have a difficult chance of catching prey).
In addition, vitamin supplements can also produce smelly stools. The need to supplement cats with vitamins and minerals is rare, and the current cat food is nutritionally balanced. Try to choose whether or not to supplement with your veterinarian’s advice.
Infection:
When infectious enteritis occurs, the Bacteria such as E. coli, salmonella, and some viruses can cause inflammation, diarrhea, and bad-smelling gas.
Some intestinal parasites can also cause bloating or gas in cat owners. Giardia, in particular, can cause cats to produce chronic foul-smelling feces, whether or not they cause diarrhea. Likewise, coccidia and trichomonas can cause intestinal inflammation or diarrhea.
If the customer asks, and the cat owner suddenly becomes foul-smelling, it is best to suggest that he go to the hospital to check to see if he is infected.
Digestion:
Some indigestion and malabsorption conditions also Often the unpleasant smell of cat poop can be related to undigested or unabsorbed fats and starches.
Born to be this way
A research team from Iwate University in Japan found that the unpleasant smell of cat waste may also be related to sulfur compounds.
This courageous study was published in the Journal of Chemical Ecology. The researchers found high levels of sulfur compounds in the feces used by male cats to mark territories, while dogs’ feces were markedly lacking in these compounds. This compound emits an unpleasant rotten egg smell that makes one frown and doubts one’s love for the cat owner.
In addition, cat excrement also contains butyric acid, propionic acid, and other components that can also emit odors, these odors are their A “cat” trait, but it also makes it harder to get rid of odors.
Suggestions from pet stores
Choosing the right cat food is one aspect, but good cat food is often high in meat, making it difficult to Avoid it will make the poop smell unpleasant, and if you have a health problem, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time.
