Pet Advice

Cats love comfort and security. Make sure your home is safe for them to explore, with plenty of hiding spots, scratching posts, and comfy places to nap. Cats also enjoy windows where they can watch the world go by, so provide them with a perch near a window if possible.

Feeding your cat the right type of food is essential for their health. Ensure their diet is suitable for their age and lifestyle, whether they’re a kitten, adult, or senior cat. Make sure they always have access to fresh water to stay hydrated, as cats can sometimes be picky drinkers.

Cats are generally good at grooming themselves, but regular brushing helps reduce hairballs and keeps their coat shiny. Long-haired cats, in particular, require more frequent grooming. Additionally, trimming their claws when needed helps prevent scratching damage to furniture.

Cats are very particular about their litter boxes. Make sure to keep it clean by scooping it daily and changing the litter regularly. The box should be placed in a quiet, accessible area where your cat can feel at ease.

Though cats love to nap, they also need playtime and stimulation. Use toys, cat trees, and interactive play to keep them active and engaged. Providing them with variety will help prevent boredom and destructive behaviour.

Even though cats are masters at hiding illness, regular vet visits are important. Schedule annual check-ups to monitor their health, and make sure their vaccinations are up to date. If you notice any signs of illness, such as changes in appetite or behaviour, don’t hesitate to contact your vet.
