Toilet Trained Cat Doing Number 2

It would also help if you keep those paws clean and trim their nails. You can go to a pet store and buy a nail trimmer specially designed for cats. Ask your veterinarian for the proper way to trim your cats nails so as not to hurt them in the process. If you find that your cat exhibits a not-so-healthy clawing habit, you may go for the option of declawing your cat. 

Cat owners who are not around for a long period of time should make sure that the feeders that they use are large enough to hold enough food for the entire time the cat is alone. This way, cats are cared for no matter what you are doing. Cats who are territorial really do need their own dish. Then, you can feed the different cats at different areas of the house. 

Because of the way many pet food companies describe the meat in the food, it can be difficult to figure out exactly what the difference between chicken flavored , and chicken dinner is. Food that contains chicken meal can only be made from the skin, flesh, and bones only. This is really the best type of protein for a cat. 

The very least you will need are two cloth towels, a pet safe shampoo and conditioner, a sponge and a sprayer to attach to your skin nozzle. No sprayer? Then use a pitcher of water and keep it near the sink. You should try to have a non skid mat there as well to help your cat feel better about standing in the water. 

Before getting your cat, you should purchase bowls for food and water, a collar (if you want the cat to wear one), a bed (or pet quilt), a few suitable toys, and some food. A kitten should be fed throughout the day 4 times with a small amount of food each meal, reducing to 3 times a day at 3 months old, then at 6-8 months 2 meals per day. 

However, most cats are content to play with toys or to be independent. This doesn t mean that cats aren t excellent companions though. They can be silly at times and they often enjoy curling up on your lap and purring. Your cat won t come running when you are home at the end of day and knock you over.
