HEALTH AND CARE

Health

The Mekong bobtail is characterized by good health and natural immunity. Puberty comes early, from four months. At the same time, the ability to procreate persists until old age, and the Mekong live for a long time - up to 20 years and more! These cats and cats are wonderful parents. Both females and males equally care about their offspring (and if necessary, then about someone else's). At the same time, matriarchy is accepted in the "family" of Mekong bobtails. The female acts as the head of the family, and the male voluntarily assumes the role of "henpecked".

Care

Mekong wool does not require special care. In addition, devoid of undercoat, it almost does not shed. Once or twice a week, these cats require routine preventive combing to get rid of old hair. Otherwise, everything is like everyone else's: regular cleaning of the ears and, if necessary, trimming of the claws.
