algemene gesondheidsprobleme <\/strong>in koue weer. Kyk uit vir:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u2022\u2009Hipotermie (dier se liggaamstemperatuur is aansienlik laer as normaal) kan ontstaan wanneer ‘n dier te lank aan koue blootgestel is en sy liggaam nie warm genoeg bly nie. Dit is ‘n lewensgevaarlike toestand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Vriesbrand kan op ore, stert en pote voorkom waar bloedsirkulasie in koue vinnig afneem. Die vel kan bleek of blouerig word \u2013 later selfs hard of dof.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Verergerde artritis, gewrigspyn, ontsteking en styfheid, veral by ouer diere.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Verkoue en griep, want diere se lugwe\u00eb is sensitief vir koue lug en wisselende temperature \u2013 veral as hulle reeds ‘n verswakte immuunstelsel het.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wees op die uitkyk vir gedragsveranderings in jou hond of kat, soos as hulle:\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009ongewoon stil of traag raak, meer l\u00ea, nie wil speel nie en stadig reageer,\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009met moeite opstaan, styf of mank loop. (dit kan gewrigs- of spierpyn aandui), <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009knorrig of teruggetrokke raak (hulle ervaar dalk pyn),<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009skielik ‘n verlies aan eetlus het of buitensporig dors is,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009slaappatroon verander, hulle sukkel om te rus of buitensporig baie slaap.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fisieke siektesimptome<\/strong> sluit in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u2022\u2009Hoes, nies of loopneus (verkoue, griep of selfs ‘n ernstiger respiratoriese infeksie);\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Vinnige, vlak asemhaling, hyg of piepende asem.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Aanhoudende bewing. (‘n Klein rilling is normaal, maar as dit nie ophou nie, is dit waarskynlik hipotermie).\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Koue pote, ore of stert (swak bloedsirkulasie of vroe\u00eb vriesbrand).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Bleek of blou tandvleis (‘n noodsein oor suurstoftekort, bloedsirkulasieprobleme of dalk bosluiskoors).\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Braking of diarree (veroorsaak vinnige ontwatering).\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Geswelde gewrigte of mankheid.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tyd vir veearts?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nAs jy enige van bogenoemde tekens sien \u2013 selfs al lyk dit gering \u2013 skakel eerder jou veearts. Diere se gesondheid kan vinnig agteruitgaan.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Skryf hul simptome neer: Hoe lank dit al aanhou, enige veranderings in gedrag, eetlus, temperatuurblootstelling en vorige gesondheidstoestande. Hierdie inligting help die veearts om vinnig en akkuraat te diagnoseer.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Voorkoming<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nHier is eenvoudige maniere om jou troeteldier veilig en warm te hou:\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Hou troeteldiere binne, veral op yskoue dae of snags.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Voorsien ‘n winddigte, waterdigte hok met komberse of strooi indien jou dier buite moet wees.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022’n Warm baadjie vir klein hondjies of dunpelsrasse kan baie help.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2009Kyk daagliks dat die troeteldiere skoon water het.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022’n Jaarlikse gesondheidsondersoek help om probleme vroeg op te spoor.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die liefde wat jy vir jou troeteldier het, wys in hoe jy hulle versorg. Jou oplettendheid is hul eerste verdediging teen siektes en jou sorg is hul grootste beskerming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
