What to Know About Cats?

 

Cats have very independent minds. This means that they have their own thoughts and thinking processes, and they do not always respond to the ways of humans. Sometimes a cat might seem like it wants to play with you, but then it might stick to its own back or tail and pretend to ignore you. In other words, cats have their own personalities! They are also quite curious by nature, and if you show your cat curiosity, they will try to learn more about you.

Like dogs, cats are members of the family group of mammals. But unlike dogs, cats do not necessarily live with their family in the same home. Instead, they go out on their own and look for food and water. They hunt for different kinds of prey on their own.

A cat's sense of smell is more sensitive than ours is. So, when it comes to hunting, a cat would rather take the time to find the food itself than to chase after it and get caught. If the cat happens to catch something, it might be afraid of being caught and will run away. This is how wild animals catch themselves. Cats do not have this instinct.

Although it is said that cats only like to eat certain kinds of foods, there is no proof to back this up. It is also said that cats have a limited taste for things such as cheese or fruit. But then again, they might just like it very much because it tastes so good.

What to know about cats is that they do not like loud noises. So, if you keep your ears open while you are playing with your cat, you might not find him making any noise. Cats also have a very sensitive sense of touch. Their nails are almost as sharp as our nails. If you step on a cat's tail, the cat will probably scratch you on the hand or the foot very hard. Cats' feet also have very sensitive pads that they can hardly keep from itching so much.

So, one more thing you might like to know about cats is that they like to climb. There are a lot of things that a cat might enjoy climbing on, but it is usually the furniture of the house. They love high places where there are no climbers. So, if you put your cat trees in your garden, he might think that it is his very own playground and start to climb on the trees and then he'd probably just enjoy himself.

One last thing you should know about cats is that they like to eat just about anything. Anything that humans eat is actually OK for them, but they like to eat human food just as much as they like to eat dog food. And they like fruits and vegetables as well. Try to stick to dry cat food, unless you are sure it is 100% pet food.

Your cat might have other special needs that you would like to know about. Sometimes, cats do not like the taste of certain foods and so they will scratch on the side of the bowl and try to put it in their mouths. If your cat likes to chew on something, but does not like the texture, try giving them a toy that makes the taste goes away, like a frozen avocado, or an ice cube. Just do not make it a game and do not punish your cat when he tries to bite you or scratch you with his teeth.

Cats are clean animals as well and therefore they can get sick just like us, just like we would get sick. Cats get colds just like us and they might even get serious cases of the flu. It is all due to bacteria in the air. If you have ever thought that your cat was sneezing, coughing, running nose or had some sort of fever, it is time that you looked closer into what is wrong with your cat and to take care of it before it gets worse.

In conclusion, what to know about cats can be very easy if you understand a little bit about how they think and what is going on in their heads. You could probably take a course in how to understand cats and take care of your cat better. You do not have to have an actual cat to learn what to know about cats, but learning about cats might be one of the best things that you ever do with your pet cat. Do yourself and your cat a favor and learn as much as you can about this wonderful animal. You can also read about

How to Stop a Cat From Biting?

  If your cat has not already been declawed, you should make an appointment with your veterinarian to discuss the possibility of declawing your cat. Declawing cats is not necessary for them, but it does remove the natural claw. This does not always result in the cat not wanting to bite anymore. It just means that they will have less protection around their joints if they must use their claws for gripping objects. It's sort of like an opposite-effects kind of situation. Now that we know more about the reasons why a cat might hurt itself or bite another person, let's talk about how to stop a cat from biting? First of all, keep your cat out of other people's belongings. The cat doesn't know the difference between yours and a neighbor's things and, therefore, won't be able to differentiate between your mail and someone else's. Also, keep your cat away from the places where you have been bitten before. Like, if you were attacked by a raccoon, don't let him bi...

Cat Health Issues And What To Do About Them?

  It is important that you give your cat the appropriate vaccinations on a regular basis. These vaccinations will help your cat to fight off any bugs or disease which may invade its body. Two of the most important vaccinations against diseases affecting cats are rabies and feline leukemia/thrush. Rabies is easily spread among the cat population especially through bite wounds. Some cats get rabies from eating bats or contaminated objects which usually happens in the wild. It is advisable that you seek veterinary assistance for cat illness or injury at the first sign of any trouble. Most common cat illnesses can be diagnosed by a visit to the veterinarian.

A trip to the veterinarian can save your cat's life, and it is often covered by insurance. Make sure that you keep up with your pet's annual shots, and remember that a cat does not need a yearly phys...
