CATS MASSAGE​

How can you know if you're being too gentle or too rough in a massage?​
By : Cat life

You watch the cat's face," Dr. Swanson says.
  • Bad: If the cat tries to run away or it meows or hisses, then you're doing it too roughly:

    Rough massage
  • Medium: "If the cat is daydreaming or looking around the room and it's not paying attention to you, then you're doing it too softly -- you don't have enough contract for it to be therapeutic:

  • Good: What you want is that look of concentration; the cat has that look of 'ahhhhhh' on its face." If you notice discomfort or your cat daydreaming, change your touch:

"If you massage your cat on a regular basis, it's going to have a better sense of its own well-being -- a better interplay with you, and you will have a better interplay with it, " says Carvel Tiekert, D.V.M., executive director of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association.
Benefits:​

  • Massage has many benefits (see sidebar, "More Motives to Massage"), not the least of which is improved circulation. "When you improve circulation, that means tissues are going to function more effectively," Dr. Tiekert says. "Massage improves oxygenation and the ability of the body to dispose of metabolic garbage, which makes everything work better."


  • By massaging your cat on a regular basis, you may actually make your veterinarian's job easier because you will be more tuned in to any health problems. "You will have a sense of what is normal for that cat; if things change, you're going to know and then hopefully do something about it," concludes Dr. Tiekert. You will know if your cat has any skin problems, cuts, lumps or bumps, and you can detect weight loss in its early stages because you're touching your cat on a daily basis.


  • Massage can also go a long way in helping solve behavior problems in cats. Aggression towards people or other cats excessive fear and nervousness territoriality, litterbox problems -- all can be helped through massage.


  • Realize that massage is a supplement to, not a replacement for, veterinary care. "When pet owners massage their pets at home, that dramatically complements the use of drug treatments, acupuncture, surgery and other therapies," says Judith Ray Swanson, D.V.M., a holistic veterinarian in the Chicago area. "When my clients massage their cats between their visits to see me, I can tell the difference. I can't imagine a situation where massage, done properly, would not be useful."

Cat Massage - Poll reasults​
massagechaburinn0.png

6 readers were agreed that Massage is an excellent relaxant for cat and owner and once you get to know the 'feel' of your cat you can quickly spot anything out of the ordinary that might need treatment sooner rather than later. Massage is regularly used by physiotherapists who can assess the condition of, and any damage to, muscles, ligaments and tendons.

2 votes goes only for a good pat - which also will create a special bond between the owner and cat

1 reader would like to see the cat from distance and if its not possible to avoid the feline would touch her - like last resort.
