It is normal to care for your pets. Early detection of a disease makes it easier to treat, which will help you save money.

But running to the vet with any suspicion is also not a good idea. Let's find out whether it is possible to monitor the well-being of a cat or a male cat by the condition of its nose.

It is impossible to say with certainty that a cat's nose is like a hot forehead in a person with a cold or other illness.

The cat is healthy

1. When the animal's nose is pink or light brown.

2. A dry nose is also a sign of excellent health, just like a wet one. A healthy cat may have a dry nose because the air in the house is dry.

The cat is sick

1. If the nose has a bluish, red or yellow tint or is very pale. Perhaps the blood circulation is impaired, we can talk about anemia or jaundice.

2. A constantly dry and hot nose is a sign of high temperature or dehydration.

3. A constantly wet and cold nose indicates an infectious disease.

4. If you notice nasal discharge that differs in color, consistency, smell, and can be profuse, purulent, and bloody, this is also a problem.

In this and other cases, you should seek help from a veterinarian without delay.
