Due to the extremely cold winter in the north, stray cats at this time will abandon their territorial awareness and begin to huddle together to stay warm through the winter. They will hide in car tires, wind-shielding walls, illuminated street lights, garbage cans, garages, green grass, air-conditioning outer boxes, and temporary cat houses built by kind-hearted people.

When you see a stray cat that is afraid of being approached by humans, don’t rush to chase it, and don’t think that the cat is not family. For stray cats, only by not having family members can they avoid being harmed. Give them some food, some water, and a little brown sugar in the water if you can. This will not only slow down the freezing of water, but also provide some energy to stray cats.

If you encounter a thin cat, if there is a local stray animal rescue center, try to send it there as soon as possible. A thin cat cannot withstand the cold. Make a simple cat nest out of cardboard boxes and old clothes in places where stray cats often appear. A cat nest can help them withstand the cold in winter.
