During the hectic
holiday season it is important to slow down and evaluate the important
gifts in your life. Family, friends and our animal companions are the
living gifts that enrich each day. During this holiday season, make
time to spend with the living gifts. The holiday stress will be lifted
as you share a hug, a caress or a simple smile.

When spending time
with your cat make sure some time is devoted to creative and vigorous
play. Animal behaviorists have discovered that many inappropriate
behaviors occur when cats are bored. Cats have incredible senses and
it is essential to provide a stimulating environment and exciting
activities. The following items will entertain and exercise your cat:
- Feather wands
- Fishing poles
(with assorted furry, feathery or catnip Laser pointers (now with
mouse-shaped points of light)
- Treat balls
or puzzles
- Towers,
scratching posts and ladders (The book The Cat’s House has some
great ideas)
- Window
perches and other raised observation points
|
Other thoughtful
gifts for cats include:
- Combs and
brushes to help remove dead hair
- Collars to
hold identification and rabies tags as well as bells to alert others
of the approaching kitty
- Carriers to
allow for safe travel for cat and chauffeur

Our cats brighten

your cat and make gift selections that are appropriate for this
astonishing, adaptable creature. |
