There is a lot involved in caring for a cat. But don't panic, we have listed the most important care tips for you. From the daily chores to a good protection of his health.
Find out what you need to give your cat a good life.
Periodically groom your cat with a flea and tick remedy and a de-worming treatment. Your cat needs that to keep these unwanted guests at bay. They cause itching, diarrhea and other nasty health problems in house tigers. And you really don't want to do that to your cat.
Sometimes it drives you crazy: cat hair. Especially during the moulting period! But the coat is an important means of protection that prevents all kinds of external influences. That is why good coat care is indispensable for your cat. Use a special cat comb for this. The hair length of your house tiger determines which comb is suitable and how often you comb.
Cats wear their nails walking on the street and scratching. Nevertheless, it can happen that the nails become too long. Eventually they can grow in the skin, which is very painful. Therefore, check cat nails regularly and cut them - if necessary - with cat nail scissors.
Did you know that in addition to being super bright, cats are also extremely strong? They owe this to their trained muscles and joints. To keep them strong, they do need to be maintained, and a scratching post is the ideal tool for that. If you choose the right scratching post, your cat will also use it for climbing, scrambling and jumping. Cardio and strength training in one!
You are what you eat, that includes cats. Choose high-quality cat food that focuses on the life phase of your animal. In addition, you give supplements so that he does not miss out on essential nutrients. House tigers can also benefit from supplements for certain diseases and conditions. Always check with your vet first whether it is responsible to give it.
Your cat's teeth and molars also require the necessary care. Cats naturally keep their teeth clean by chewing. Therefore, give your cat dry food, chews and chew toys. In addition, brush his teeth with a special toothbrush and toothpaste for cats. This prevents plaque from eventually turning into tartar.
House tigers sleep an average of 14 to 16 hours a day. They need that rest time to prevent all kinds of health ailments. For example, a cat with a lack of sleep will experience stress and have a reduced resistance. Therefore, give your cat safe places where it can nap, such as a lovely relaxing chair.
If you take care of a cat, first aid equipment is not an unnecessary luxury. After all, an injury is so sustained. In addition, the animals can be outside of proper fighters, for example when defending territory. Cat owners therefore need at least one wound care spray. You use it to treat wounds and to protect against infections.
Cats can spontaneously become unclean. This may be a sign of stress or a health problem. In any case, consult the vet. In the meantime, it is important to remove the pee and clean the area well. Otherwise, your cat will see it as its regular toilet spot. For fabric surfaces, use a urine cleaner. It disinfects and prevents unpleasant smells.
Did you know that cat toys can prevent stress and boredom in your cat? It ensures that he can meet his natural needs. Tracking, hunting and catching, that's what real cat life is all about! Moreover, your house tiger will get extra exercise by playing. And are you going to work together? Then it strengthens your mutual bond. Win-win!
