My Blood, My Rules


Meow, I’ve got something pretty important to talk about—my blood!


Yep, we cats have different blood types, and it’s a big deal if I ever need a blood transfusion.


What’s My Blood Type?


We have three blood types: AB, and AB. Most cats, like me, have Type A—I’m common but still fabulous! Some of my friends, like the British Shorthair or Devon Rex, might have Type B. And if you ever meet a cat with Type AB, consider yourself lucky—they’re like the rarest gems in the kitty kingdom!


Why Should You Know My Blood Type?


If I need a blood transfusion, getting the right type is crucial. If I get the wrong type, my body will reject it—like mixing oil and water. Cats with Type A can’t receive Type B blood, and vice versa. But lucky Type AB cats can take either.



How Can You Find Out My Blood Type?


The vet just needs a little sample of my blood (ouch!) to test what type I am. Once they know, they’ll keep it on file, so if I ever need help in a pinch, we’ll be ready to roll. Even better, with CHŪPETTO, you can store all this important information in one place! My blood type, vet visits, health history—you’ll have everything you need to keep me safe, right at your fingertips.


Why It Matters


Emergencies happen, and when they do, time is of the essence. Knowing my blood type now means that if I ever need help, there’s no delay in getting the right treatment. Plus, with CHŪPETTO’s smart vet-matching feature, you can quickly find vets who are experienced in emergencies like blood transfusions. Trust me, being prepared is the best way to protect me.


So, next time we're at the vet, maybe you could ask them about checking my blood type? And don’t forget to upload it to CHŪPETTO so it’s always there when you need it.
