As humans, Cats are also at risk of dehydration and heatstroke; these are serious conditions that can lead to illness and even death.
WATER
Make sure your cat has plenty of freshwater. Replacing the water a few times a day can encourage your cat to drink, and placing multiple earthen bowls around the house and garden will ensure that water is within easy reach.
SHADE
Most cats will enjoy a snooze in the sunshine and then retire to a shady spot when they get too hot. Ensure your cat has a few cool and shady spots to retreat to around the house and garden. Also, don't be surprised if you find your cat lying on the tiles on the kitchen floor or the bathroom. Tiles and materials such as porcelain keep cool and so cats will gravitate towards them when they are a little too hot.
AIR CIRCULATION
Opening the windows to let in a breeze can help provide a cool area to rest. Get a small box fan and set it on the floor or near an open window. If your cat gets too hot, they will appreciate the breeze blowing through their fur to keep cool. If your house is not air-conditioned during the summer heat, try putting a frozen water bottle in front of the fan.
