Why a ball of yarn is not a toy for a kitten: veterinarians never tire of reminding you of this
In a house where a cat lives, a number of rules should be followed - this is the only way the owner can protect his pet from possible injuries and unpleasant situations.
One of these rules is to not leave threads, yarn and other knitting and sewing supplies in plain sight.
Why is this dangerous and what can happen if a kitten starts playing with these objects?
Firstly, a kitten playing with a thread or yarn can swallow it.
This can lead to serious intestinal problems, including blockage and the need for surgery.
Secondly, Murka or Barsik are quite capable of wrapping a thread or yarn around their neck, which threatens strangulation or damage to the cervical vertebrae.
And thirdly, sharp objects such as knitting needles and needles accidentally left in a skein of yarn can injure the animal’s paws or internal organs.
Therefore, if you have a cat in your house, be careful where you leave your knitting and sewing supplies.
It is best to store them in closed drawers or cabinets, inaccessible to your pet.
