A healthy cat's nose should be cool and moist.
However, a dry and warm nose does not always signal that something is wrong with the animal.
How to determine whether a kitten is healthy or not
A healthy pet has clean, clear eyes, ears without discharge or plaque, a clean and slightly moist nose, without any discharge.
Its coat is soft and shiny, without tangles or bald patches, and his skin is free of redness, sores and scratches.
With a lack of water in the body, the cat is lethargic and the nose is dry, the skin loses elasticity, the eyeballs look sunken, the mucous membranes dry out, saliva becomes sticky and viscous, and the pads of the fingers are cold to the touch.
A cat in this state does not eat and hardly drinks, although it desperately needs water.
The Canadian company Sylvester.AI introduced the Tably application, which determines whether a cat is in pain.
The operating principle of the program is based on a grimace scale and machine learning.
