Ten simple ways to improve a cat’s life:
😻 1. 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. 2. Offer vertical space – Cat trees, shelves, or window perches let them climb, watch, and feel secure. 3. 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 4. Provide a safe outdoor experience – A catio, cat gazebo, harness walks, or stroller time lets them enjoy nature without the dangers of roaming. 5. Rotate toys – Switching toys every few days keeps play fresh and prevents boredom. 6. 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. 7. 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. 8. Give hiding spots – Boxes, covered beds, or tunnels make cats feel safe when they need downtime. 9. 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. 10. 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.
