Domestic Cats

Love them or hate them – moggies are a law unto themselves.
Cats that are active are happy cats. Cats need the least sleep out of all mammals. Cats spend as much as sixteen hours sleeping every day, and they spend no less than 30 percent of their awake time grooming themselves.
It is important to ensure that your cat gets enough exercise, as not exercising could lead to numerous health issues. If your cat is not exercised he or she will become frustrated and unhappy, and become quite destructive.
Cats are notorious for tearing curtains and scratching furniture, therefore it is really important to give your cat toys to play with and invest in a scratching post. Spending time with your pets is really quite important as they need love and care the same as we do.
Happy pets develop confidence and nice natures, whereas pets that are never cuddled or spoken to are often skittish or aggressive.
Tennis balls or cardboard toilet rolls will offer many hours of fun for your cat.
Preventing your cat from being overweight is important and if you encourage your cat to play and move, the weight should stay off.
Indoor domestic cats are prone to becoming obese if they are not encouraged to play and move. Remember to always avoid any toys that will tear or shred, as this could prove to be dangerous to your cat.
