Warm! \u2668\ufe0f Felines can have a hard time keeping their body temperature down on hot summer days due to all their fur. They can even be at risk of heatstroke or severe dehydration. But, if you\u2019re worried about your furry friends, there are some tricks you can use to help them out fighting the heat. Let&#8217;s look into <strong>how to keep cats cool in summer <\/strong>while facing the high temperatures!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Provide plenty of water<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/how_to_keep_cats_cool_in_summer_water.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3949\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first rule on how to keep cats cool in summer is also the most obvious one: to provide plenty of water. Cats are shy drinkers, so make sure they always have a bowl with fresh water and replace it frequently to encourage drinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider also placing more bowls around the house and the garden (if you have an outdoor cat). This way, if they feel dehydrated, they don\u2019t need to walk a long distance to get to one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re going to be out for a long time, you can drop some ice cubes in the bowls before you leave, so the water remains cool for longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Grooming<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shaving your cats&#8217; fur is not an option, no matter how hard they are struggling. It could lead to sunburns from the direct exposure of the skin. <a href=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/deep-dives\/hairless-cats-everything-you-need-to-know\/\">Hairless cats<\/a>, for instance, also have a hard time in summer because of this danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, frequent or even daily brushing can help detangle their fur and remove fallen hairs that could be making it harder for them to cool down. For long haired cats, you can consider trimming a bit of the fur, at least on their bellies, to help them out. \u2702\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stroking your cat softly with a damped towel can also be of use. Cats tend not to mind it and even enjoy it if they feel the coolness in their fur!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover testimonial-div-bg\" style=\"min-height:300px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-100 has-background-dim has-background-gradient\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(237,241,255) 1%,rgba(177,193,250,0.75) 100%)\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"testimonial-div-text has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-e2be666b7f86276af4019b2e611f11b9\" style=\"color:#364053;font-size:16px\"><em>\u201c<em>Every time Umi is hospitalized, it\u2019s for like four days and it costs over $5,000\u2026 Maven has helped me not only <strong>save money<\/strong> but also <strong>save his life<\/strong><\/em>\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-not-stacked-on-mobile testimonial-cols is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center prod-img-col is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:200px\"><div class=\"wp-block-image testimonial-img is-style-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"384\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Jessica-Ortiz-Umi.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6823\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover;width:160px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Jessica-Ortiz-Umi.jpg 384w, https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Jessica-Ortiz-Umi-288x300.jpg 288w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center prod-text-col is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-content-justification-left is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-ad009506 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right product-div-text has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-2442b20e4f09453e0ced06357feafe3f\">\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"testimonial-div-text has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-ad612065f013bb10f45b73b0c14890b1\" style=\"color:#364053;font-size:16px\">Jessica Ortiz<br><strong>Umi<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons product-div-btn is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/cat-health-tracker\/?int_content=testimonial_cat\" style=\"background-color:#f4795d\"><strong>Track your cat&#8217;s health!<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep air circulating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have an AC system, consider leaving it on during the day so the cats don\u2019t have to face such hard temperatures.

This tip is also valid for indoor cats!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can even take a pack of frozen peas and wrap a cloth around it, so the cats can use it as a cool bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover product-div-bg prod-cat\" style=\"min-height:400px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-6832 size-full\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/prod-cat.jpg\" style=\"object-position:25% 50%\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" data-object-position=\"25% 50%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/prod-cat.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/prod-cat-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/prod-cat-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim\" style=\"background-color:#5d5d59\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns prod-cols is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column prod-img-col is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:40%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full product-div-img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"436\" height=\"872\" src=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/cat-scr.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6834\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/cat-scr.png 436w, https:\/\/maven.pet\/all-about-pets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/cat-scr-150x300.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 436px) 100vw, 436px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column prod-text-col is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:60%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"product-div-text has-white-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-d79ad9486366b2f8d056f1784a342b56\"><strong>Monitor heart rate, respiratory rate, activity &amp; rest, itch behavior.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons product-div-btn is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/maven.pet\/cat-health-tracker\/?int_content=product_cat\" style=\"background-color:#f4795d\"><strong>Track your cat&#8217;s health<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Limit exercise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Postpone any games or activities that require a higher effort from your bud.
