Best Cat Toys
|
|
Cat toys, there are tons and tons of cat toys on the market. But do you know your cat's toy preference?
Is your cat a birder, a mouser, or a bugger? Does your cat prefer toys that mimic birds, mice or catching bugs?
There are many types of cat toys made for cats and each cat has his or her own preferences as to what stimulates them to interact.
Favored cat toys mimic predatory acts that cats would perform if they were to hunt for their food.
Although your cat may not need to "hunt", they still enjoy the actions and movements involved with the process of hunting from which they create a form of play.
Cats love to chase, pounce, capture, carry, bite and roll around with good cat toys.

Stimulate Indoor Cats
|
|
If you have an indoor cat, make sure he is "stimulated".
The new buzz word is environmental enrichment. This means to make sure that your cat has opportunities to have an interesting life while living inside.
You can do this by providing toys, a screened in porch, a bird feeder for them to watch as well as scratching posts and cat trees.

Choosing a Cat Thermometer
|
|
The most accurate way to determine a cat's temperature is by taking their temperature with a rectal thermometer.
Here are some tips on what to look for when buying a thermometer for your cat.
When choosing a thermometer, you can buy a human type one at your local drug store. Choose a model that is fast (reads in 5 - 10 seconds) and has a flexible soft tip.
The softer tip is more comfortable for your cat. They generally run around $5.00 to $7.00. Label it for your cat and keep it with your pet first aid supplies.
