Some people wrinkle their noses in disgust at the sight of a homeless cat, considering the unfortunate animal a source of various dangerous diseases.
Others believe in omens and are afraid to pick up cats, believing that this could cause trouble.
However, many people find their pets on the street. As a result, no one suffers from any diseases and does not become a "magnet" for bad luck.
Is it possible to pick up cats from the street?
It is worth remembering that animals ended up without a home precisely as a result of human carelessness and irresponsibility. To shelter a street animal, giving it a home and your love, is a noble act that deserves respect.
Such a pet will be able to pleasantly surprise you with its intelligence, good health and sense of affection, experts note.
There are risks, of course. But they are always present: for example, you cannot know what diseases passers-by or people in the same room with you have.
Therefore, after you have sheltered the animal, you need to contact a veterinarian for advice. After treatment from parasites and vaccination, the pet will be absolutely ready for "home" life.
And it is better not to believe in signs that say that it is better to leave a defenseless animal on the street. In many religions, cats are sacred animals. If you abandon them in trouble, you can anger higher powers.
