LeoLionhead
New Kit
I have a very hairy Lionhead and I was just wondering how yours all cope with the heat?
Our house isnt too warm. I turn the fire off and let it cool before bringing him in, and the heating isnt on high (if we turn it off we all freeze!). But Leo always seems to be breathing hard and he lies down a lot.
Of course, he might just be lazy!
He gets brushed regularly to remove excess hair but he tends to lie down, then run around a bit, then lie down, etc. Daisy is much more animated and hops around all the time (except when she nips back to nibble Leo's ears for a minute).
Is this normal or do you think he's overheating? I dont tend to keep him in for long because of this reason, and I worry about them going back out into the cold and it being a shock.
Can he stay in longer? Is there anything I can do? How do you all manage?
