Cat care tips for Gilbert

Keep your cat safe through Gilbert's hot Arizona desert summers

Extreme Arizona summer heat

Gilbert summers are extreme, with temperatures regularly exceeding 108°F from June through August. Air conditioning must run continuously. Ask your sitter to verify indoor temperatures and ensure fresh water is always available throughout summer bookings.

Desert hydration management

Arizona's dry heat makes hydration a genuine health priority. A water fountain is essential year-round, and wet food should be a daily staple. Monitor litter box output as a hydration indicator throughout any summer booking.

Scorpions and desert wildlife

Gilbert sits adjacent to undeveloped desert areas in the San Tan Valley, and bark scorpions can enter homes through small gaps. Seal door and window gaps, check cat bedding regularly, and brief your sitter on any known scorpion activity.

Gilbert winters are ideal for cats

Gilbert winters are mild, sunny, and one of the great rewards of East Valley living. November through March is an ideal time for opening screened windows for fresh air , just verify all screens are secure and in good repair before any winter trip.
