Ten simple ways to improve a cat’s life:
😻
- Feed moisture-rich food – Cats are built to get water from food, so wet or raw diets help protect their kidneys and urinary tract. Make it soupy.
- Offer vertical space – Cat trees, shelves, or window perches let them climb, watch, and feel secure.
- Play daily – Wand toys, laser pointers, and chase games keep both their body and brain active. Never strings that can get caught in their digestive tract
- Provide a safe outdoor experience – A catio, cat gazebo, harness walks, or stroller time lets them enjoy nature without the dangers of roaming.
- Rotate toys – Switching toys every few days keeps play fresh and prevents boredom.
- Keep the litter box clean – Daily scooping and enough boxes (one per cat, plus one extra) reduce stress and accidents. Never bentonite clay. It clumps in their lungs and digestive system.
- Offer scratching options – Posts, pads, and boards protect your furniture while giving them an outlet for natural behavior. Try your best to avoid toxic fun fur.
- Give hiding spots – Boxes, covered beds, or tunnels make cats feel safe when they need downtime.
- Use positive interaction – Respect when your cat wants affection and when they want space; this builds trust. Remember they are corpuscular so work with their rhythm best you can.
- Routine vet care – Regular checkups, dental health, and parasite prevention catch issues early and keep them thriving.
😽Even small changes like these can make a huge difference in your kitty’s happiness and health.
