Cats and Dogs

Often in summer I saw the dog’s big mouth! When the water drips from the mouth, especially when they see a furry dog, many people will think that the owner is cruel. Why don't you shave the dog when it makes him gasp and drool? In fact, this is the dog's hair. A way to dissipate heat is that the dog's sweat glands are distributed on the tongue, the dog opens its mouth, sticks out its tongue, and gasps. This can secrete a large amount of saliva to replace the sweat, and make the saliva evaporate and absorb heat. Lower body temperature. In addition, the dog's foot pads are also one of the sources of heat dissipation! If your dog has long hair, you may want to use trimming or shaving, especially the hair on the dog's foot pads. After cutting and thinning, it will be more conducive to the dog's heat dissipation.

Dogs mainly dissipate heat by panting, so how do our cats dissipate heat? The thick fur really makes them sweat! Cats have sweat glands in their skin. Cats’ sweat glands are not developed and do not actively participate in the regulation of body temperature like human sweat glands. Therefore, no matter how hot the weather is, there are no sweat glands in cats. Cats are not seen sweating profusely. Cats dissipate heat through radiation through the skin or through breathing like dogs, but this heat dissipation effect is worse than evaporative heat dissipation through sweating. The "thing" is the fleshy pad on its paw. Usually, when a cat feels cold, it curls its paws in its arms to sleep, but when the cat feels hot, it will stretch out its paws and spread its paws. , that’s how cats dissipate heat
