When many people decide to raise cats, they may just be on a whim and are attracted by the cute appearance of the cat.

When I really started raising cats, I realized that raising cats was not an easy thing, and I would encounter various troubles in the process.

Today, let’s take a look at how many of the worries you have suffered after raising a cat?

1. The excellent curiosity of cats, coupled with their natural claw grinding needs. Combining these two characteristics, you will have an "expert in the family" in your home.

You will find that the walls, sofas, and furniture in your home will basically leave cat claw marks. Sometimes, if you are not careful, you will find that your beloved thing has been tragically affected by the cat's "poisonous claws".

2. The problem of hair loss is very serious

Before you raise a cat, you may never have thought that cats will shed hair. Only after you really raise a cat will you realize that cats are losing their hair is simply a "disaster", especially for some cats with long hair.

You may be decorated with cat hair on your clothes, sofas, and tables. If I don’t clean my home for a few days, I may not dare to imagine what the hell it is!

3. After you can't sleep, you have to say goodbye to Lazy. Because cats are like a regular alarm clock, every morning, they will come to your bed on time and in various ways to wake you up, either patting your face with your paws, meowing in your ear, or jumping directly into your stomach. Anyway, if you don’t get up, I keep making trouble.

4. Unbearable howl

If the cat is not spayed, once it enters the estrus period, the howl at midnight is really unbearable.

This sound will not only disturb your sleep, but may also cause complaints from your neighbors. What's worse is that cats in estrus may urinate everywhere, making the house smelly.

5. Super smelly excrement  

The cat's excrement smells so strong. Even if you prepare cat litter box and deodorizing products for them, it is still difficult to completely eliminate that smell.

And you have to clean up the cat litter every day, otherwise if the cat is dissatisfied with the cat litter, it will start to urinate everywhere, making the whole room smelly.

6. The cost of raising a cat is quite large. Cat food, cat litter, toys, physical examination fees, etc. all require you to invest in long-term, not to mention that cats sometimes get sick. If you have several cats at home, these expenses will rise sharply.

7. Life is not as free as before

After raising a cat, your life is not so free. You have to always think about the cat’s needs and arrange your own time to take care of them.

Going out for a trip? That's impossible. Even if you're just going out for a day or two, you'll be particularly worried about how your cats are doing at home.

You will always think: Are they full of food? Have you made the family messed up? Have you got sick or injured? This kind of concern will make your life more cautious and less casual than before.

The above are the 7 major worries after raising cats. For friends who really like cats, these worries are nothing. Because the happiness and companionship that cats bring us far exceeds the troubles caused by these troubles, are you right?
