Cat Care. Essential Requirements
Although your cat may act independent, he still counts on you to provide him with food, water, safe shelter, veterinary care, companionship, and more. Take care of these ten cat care essentials, and you’ll have a rewarding relationship with your feline friend.
1. Provide your cat with a collar and ID tag that includes your name, address, and telephone number. No matter how careful you are, your cat could get lost or injured whilst outside. An ID tag greatly increases the chance that your cat will be returned home safely.
2. Keep the litter tray clean and topped up to the required level. This is good for both you and your cat.
3. Keep your cat indoors at night. Keeping your cat safely confined at night is best for you, your pet, and your community. Some owners keep their cat confined at all times.
4. Take your cat to the vet for regular check-ups. If you do not have a vet, ask your local animal shelter or look in the yellow pages.
5. Treat your cat with flee and tick treatment. This is easy to apply, but if you feel that you cannot do it then have it applied during your regular visit to the vet. Use a flee collar as in item 1.
