My Siberian cat gets hot. I mean like noticeably hot.
Like a couple minutes after I took this picture he flipped himself over and I went to pet him and I could feel just how hot his fur is.
I now understand why he's always agitated, prefers sleeping on hardwood floors and stone and leather, and doesn't like to cuddle with me or sit on my lap!
Is there something I could realistically do to help him? Especially because I'm in New Jersey and it's about to turn summer.
I'm even fine with trimming his long luxurious fur, for him
You can get a cooling mat, similar principle as stone etc, but weird softer pillow-y. Couple of our cats love it in summer, and you can simply flip them if they turn warm.
Maybe some cold water, or even water with some ice?
Plus cooling pillows, they really work. Nice for the summertime:)
