Keeping a cat cool in Phuket heat, and protecting paws
Nantana11 สิงหาคม 2026·อ่าน 1 นาที
Daifuku is an eight-year-old domestic shorthair, and she does not do well in the afternoon heat. Our house in Kathu gets hot fast, so I run the fan and keep a ceramic tile in her favorite corner. Walks happen only before 8 am or after sunset. Before she steps outside, I test the pavement with the back of my hand for a few seconds. If I cannot hold it comfortably, her paw pads will not like it either. I also check her paws after every outing for small cuts or grit.
I'm definitely going to try the tile trick for Simba this summer, he overheats so quickly on the sidewalk. Walking before 8 am is a great rule, I should start doing that too. Thanks for the paw tip as well. Daifuku looks very comfortable in that corner!
Every evening around six Bambi drags me to the park near the pier in Lipa Noi, and every evening there is a golden retriever called Mango waiting by the bench. I do not know who is the boss...

ที่บ้านผมใช้ผ้าพันขวดน้ำแข็งแล้ววางไว้ในกระบะ แล้วให้แมวไปนอนตรงนั้นช่วงบ่าย น้องชอบมากเลยครับ ลองดูได้นะ
