It is said that in 2020, due to the corona crisis, more people started to keep cats, seeking comfort in living with cats, as they spent more time at home. However, on the other hand, the problem is that as soon as I started keeping them, I didn't have the knowledge that "it's harder than I thought", so there are more requests for protection from animal protection groups and abandonment of breeding. In fact, in the "# Owner Simultaneous Survey" conducted by our company in May, we asked 500 owners about the life and health of their cats. Despite the fact that 69.2% of respondents said that the number one concern in raising cats was "illness/health", about 70% of people were unable to answer the question of "cats are most susceptible to illness". It is known that 1 in 3 people have regretted going up and saying, "I should have taken you to the hospital sooner." Therefore, we wish for the happiness of cats and people, and because we support home health checks with the latest pet tech, we are an opportunity for as many cat owners as possible to learn and think about the health of cats, as well as beginners. We have decided to carry out this renewal, wishing for it. From June 22 (Tuesday), "toletta®" will be reborn as "Toletta®", which can be used for only 980 yen (1,078 yen including tax) per month, and the official website will be renewed. The veterinarian-supervised guidebook "THE FIRST CAT BOOK" is also available for free to help you learn about cats.

Toretta is a health check service that automatically records toilet data every time a cat enters the toilet. Ⓐ Pee passes through the sand and falls into the urine tray through the drainboard. Ⓑ The sensor plate measures the amount of urine that fell into the urine tray.

In response to the increase in the number of people who have cats for the first time due to the corona crisis, in May of this year, we asked 500 male and female cat owners aged 20 to 69 about the lifestyle and health of cats. Conducted “# owner simultaneous survey” on the Internet. It has become clear that "owners who love cats do not actually understand 'cat health' correctly." The survey results were supervised by Dr. Mai Inoue, a veterinarian.

Mr. Mai Inoue, a veterinarian (Japan Small Animal Medical Center) graduated from Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine. After college, he worked for a pet insurance company. After gaining clinical experience at a veterinary hospital, he launched an insurance data analysis project and obtained a doctorate in epidemiology from the University of Tokyo. Currently a member of the Executive Committee of the Feline Medicine Society, etc.

As for what they do for their cat's health, the highest percentage (66.6%) answered "choose good quality food". "Faecal check (48.2%)" and "urine check (34.4%)" were also common, but about half of the respondents did not know how many times they urinated in a day.

Survey report 1. Of those who started to keep cats due to the corona crisis, more than 60% have a “novice cat” cat for the first time. When 500 men and women were asked when they started keeping cats, 29.2% answered "after the corona disaster". Furthermore, when asked if it was the first cat for those who started keeping cats after the corona disaster, 63% answered “yes”. It can be seen that there are many “cat beginners” who have cats for the first time due to the corona sickness.

2. The number one concern about keeping cats is "Illness/Health (69.2%)". On the other hand, about half of the respondents answered that they did not know the disease that cats are most prone to, and only 30% answered that they were suffering from lower urinary tract disease.

When asked what they were most worried about about their cats, the most common answer was "Illness/Health (69.2%)." On the other hand, about half (49.2%) of the people answered that they "don't know" when asked about the diseases that adult cats (1 to 6 years old), which are generally kept by many people, are most prone to. Only 30.4% of respondents answered “lower urinary tract disease,” which is a common disease in cats.

Veterinarian CommentThe most common diseases in cats are “lower urinary tract diseases” such as cystitis, urethritis, and urinary tract stones. It is said that the ancestors of cats originally lived in the desert, so they drink relatively little water and produce thick urine. As a result, the burden on the kidneys is great, and it is thought that they are likely to cause dysfunction. In addition, it is thought that dark pee tends to crystallize minerals in the urine, making it easier for urinary stones to form, leading to cystitis and other diseases such as urinary incontinence due to stone clogging. In some cases, it is a life-threatening disease, so it is one of the diseases that owners should be aware of. 3. More than 60% of people have hesitated about whether or not to take them to the hospital! When asked if they ever hesitated whether or not to take their child to a hospital, 64% answered "yes." Furthermore, when asked why, by far the most common answer was "I couldn't tell if I was sick (74.1%)," followed by "I thought it would heal naturally (27.2%)."

Veterinarian CommentCats are hunters themselves, but they are also preyed on in the natural world, so they instinctively hide their poor health. It is difficult to understand the expression of pain, and even the owner who is with him every day may not notice it, so be careful. It is not uncommon for it to be too late by the time you notice something unusual. You want to be careful not to overlook even minor changes, such as being less energetic or less active than usual. 4. 1 in 3 regretted going to the hospital sooner. In particular, more than 40% of those who live alone have experienced regrets, and the results show the hardships of rearing. When asked if they have ever regretted taking their cat to the hospital sooner, about one in three people answered. In particular, 40.4% of people living alone regretted the experience, which shows the difficulty of raising animals for people who cannot be with them all the time.

5. The most common thing they do for their cats' health is "choosing good quality food (66.6%)." Although there were many answers of "checking feces (48.2%)" and "checking urine (34.4%)," about half of the respondents did not know how many times they urinated in a day. When asked what they do for their cat's health, the most common answer was "choosing good quality food (66.6%)." This was followed by “daily check of feces (48.2%)” and “daily check of urine (34.4%)”. Since cats often have urinary diseases, it is important to check their urine every day, but only about one in three people do so, and about half of them do not know how often they urinate. . In particular, it became clear that more than 60% of people who have three or more dogs do not understand.

Veterinarian CommentWhat is important in urological diseases is the nature of urine, the appearance and frequency of urination, etc. Urine is one of the few health barometers for cats that can be checked at home. In particular, one of the most common symptoms of urinary problems is a change in urinary frequency. Cystitis is suspected if a person frequently urinates in small amounts or goes to the bathroom but does not urinate. Also, if you are unable to urinate at all, you may have a stone blockage. Be aware that clogged urine can be life threatening. In the case of a healthy adult cat, 2-3 times a day is common, but there are individual differences, so it is very important to know the number of times your child urinates on a regular basis. Aiming for a future where cats and their owners can be happier and stay together for as long as possible

Since the corona crisis, more and more people are starting to keep cats. I am very happy that you noticed and are living a happy cat life. However, as it became clear from this simultaneous survey, no matter how careful you are about the "disease and health" of your cat, it is quite easy to correctly understand and practice the diseases that are prone to contract and how to check your health. It doesn't matter. Therefore, we would like many people to know about our "Tretta", which can easily check health data such as weight, urine volume, urination frequency, etc. Our hope is to create a future where you can spend as long as possible with your cat by using it. "Aim. The average life expectancy of a cat is 30 years. Dreaming that one day, the average life expectancy of cats, which are said to be 15 years old, will reach 30 years old, we will continue to use technology and data to provide various services.
