Cat care tips for Arlington

Keep your cat safe through Arlington's hot North Texas summers

Extreme North Texas summer heat

Arlington summers are intense, with temperatures regularly exceeding 100°F from June through August. Air conditioning must run continuously. Ask your sitter to verify indoor temperatures at every visit and ensure multiple fresh water sources are available throughout summer bookings.

North Texas heat hydration

DFW's humid summer heat makes dehydration a real risk. A water fountain is essential year-round, and wet food should be part of daily meals during summer months. Monitor litter box output as a hydration indicator during any warm-weather booking.

North Texas severe storms and tornadoes

The DFW Metroplex is in Tornado Alley. Spring (March through May) and fall (October through November) are peak severe storm seasons. Ensure your sitter knows where your home's shelter area is and has an emergency plan for severe weather events during any booking.

North Texas winter ice storms

Arlington can experience sudden, severe ice storms that make roads impassable and can cause power outages. Brief your sitter on your home's heating system, ensure they have supplies for an extended visit if roads ice over, and keep a cat emergency kit with 3 days of supplies.
