Cats may not have the title of \u201cman\u2019s best friend,\u201d but a quick stroll through the Internet makes it clear that we hold our feline friends in equally high esteem. That said, it isn\u2019t always easy to keep our cats in top shape. Fortunately, there are a few apps out there that exist specifically to make this task easier. Here, we list a handful of essential Android apps that you, and your cat, will grow to love:<\/p>\n
1. 11Pets: Pet Care<\/strong><\/p>\n As a pet owner, there\u2019s nothing we\u2019d love to avoid more than having to seek medical attention for our furry friends. To lower the odds, 11Pets: Pet Care can help you stay on top of your cat\u2019s medical needs. This app keeps track of when your cat\u2019s medications need to be administered, and provides a calendar for vaccinations, baths, checkups, and other medical appointments.<\/p>\n 11Pets even lets you store your cat\u2019s complete medical history, from health metrics, like height, weight, and temperature, to the results of x-rays, blood work, and lab tests. In a day and age when many owners have multiple veterinarians for their beloved pets, this app is a must-have.<\/p>\n 2. Pet First Aid (Red Cross) <\/strong><\/p>\n Cat owners, especially first-time owners, may not recognize when their cat is in need of medical attention. This is when Pet First Aid proves itself to be a particularly useful tool. This app offers guidance, and instruction for 25 unique pet situations via text, and video to help you be a better care provider for your feline friend. These instructions range from common treatment options to more serious action, like CPR.<\/p>\n Pet First Aid is easy to navigate, and can help owners identify toxic or harmful substances, locate the nearest pet-friendly hospital in case of emergency, detect early warning signs for various health issues, and even program a veterinarian\u2019s number in-app to call when necessary. With this app, you\u2019ll always be prepared for whatever your cat may need.<\/p>\n
