Feeding Your Cat

We suggest investing in high-quality, branded kitten or cat food. Your veterinarian will be able to evaluate your new kitten or cat and recommend the best diet for them. What and how much a cat should consume depends on factors such as age, activity level, and health.

Taurine, an important amino acid, is required for heart and eye health in cats. The food you choose should be balanced for your cat's or kitten's life stage. Taurine is found in well-balanced diets. We suggest investing in high-quality, branded kitten or cat food. Your veterinarian will be able to evaluate your new kitten or cat and recommend the best diet for them. Age, exercise level, and health all have an impact on what you can do.
  1. You'll need to keep fresh, clean water on hand at all times, as well as wash and refill your cat's water bowls on a daily basis.
  2. Treats should account for no more than 5-10% of the diet.
  3. Many people give baby food to a cat or kitten that is refusing to eat or is sick. Please read the following labels carefully: Your pet could be poisoned if the baby food contains onion or garlic powder.
  4. If anorexia, diarrhea, vomiting, or lethargy persist for more than two days, take your pet to the veterinarian.

Boarding

​Your pet should have her own clean, dry sleeping and resting area in your home. A nice, warm blanket or towel can be used to line your cat's bed. Make sure to wash your bedding on a regular basis. Please confine your cat to the house. Cats who live outside do not live as long as cats who live indoors. Cars, as well as battles with other cats, raccoons, and free-roaming canines, pose a threat to outdoor cats. Cats are known to be eaten by coyotes. Fleas and ticks are more likely to infest outdoor cats, and they are also more likely to get infectious diseases.

Maintaining A Litter Box

​A litter box is required for all indoor cats, and it should be kept in a quiet, accessible position. One box per floor is recommended in a multi-level residence. Avoid moving the box unless it's absolutely necessary, and if you do, only move it a few inches per day. Remember that cats will not use a dirty, stinky litter box, so scoop solid wastes out at least once a day. Dump everything, wash it with a light detergent, and refill it at least once a week; if you're using clumping litter, you can do it less frequently. When cleaning the litter box, avoid using ammonia, deodorants, or perfumes, particularly lemon. Consult your veterinarian if your cat refuses to use a litterbox. When you refuse to do anything, it can be really frustrating.

Your Cat Scratching 

​Scratching is necessary for cats! When a cat scratches, the outer nail sheath is torn away, revealing the sharp, smooth claws beneath. Cutting your cat's nails every two to three weeks will keep them somewhat dull, making them less likely to hurt human and furniture arms. Give your cat a robust scratching post that is at least three feet tall. The post should also be stable enough to not wobble while in use and wrapped with a rough material like sisal, burlap, or tree bark. Scratching pads are very popular among cats.

​Neutering and Spaying

By the age of five months, female cats should be spayed and male cats neutered.
