How To Have A Happy Cat
Cats are complex animals that have a range of needs that are very different from ours as humans. In order to provide a happy home for your cat, you will want to consider these needs. However, if you are considering adopting a cat, or even if you are already a seasoned cat owner, it can be overwhelming thinking about whether you are giving your cat all she requires to allow her to live a relaxed and happy life. And if you are considering adding another cat to your feline family there are steps that you can take to introduce them correctly so that all involved end up living harmoniously together. No one wants unhappy pets that are stressed. That only leads to more problems. Cats are fussy creatures especially over things which we, as humans don't think about. For example - the position of their water bowl in relation to their food; where to sleep and the location of their litter trays. This is where I can help. I have many years experience living with and caring for cats. I have owned many, looked after more and helped a number of owners achieve harmony for their pets. Whilst owning a pet can bring unbridled joy, it can also cause stress; especially the stress of "Am I doing this right?", "Is my cat content?", "What can I do to make her life better?" If you have asked yourself any of these, or similar, questions then a consultation might help you. Some question that I regularly get asked -
|
Water"My cat never drinks from his water bowl but prefers the muddy pond outside!"
|
Litter Trays"How many litter trays should I have and where do I position them?"
|
Treatments"I didn't realise that my cat needed so many regular treatments. I'm confused."
