Feral cats are cats that live their lives wandering loose on the streets or in the wild. By learning how to properly care for a cat, you can ensure that they remain healthy. Many businesses lose customers and money because of these cats.

Remove the drape cords from visibility when a cat is in the house. The cats will start playing with the cords and they can easily wrap around their necks. This is incredibly dangerous as it could be fatal for your cat. Keep your drape cords pinned out of sight to prevent this.

Dog products shouldn’t be used on cats. If you try to use products meant for dogs, it can make your cat sick, or even kill him. Be very careful with the flea products you use. Some products designed for dogs could be harmful to your cat. Keep your cat away from your puppy after treating it with some flea products.

Make sure your cat has a collar if it goes outside. Cats can go far from home and without a tag they could become lost forever. You have to be sure you have your pet’s name and number written on the tag.

A lot of cat owners have a hard time keeping their cats off the counter. Cats have a natural predilection for staking out a nice elevated place where they have a good view of their surroundings. To help prevent your cat from doing this, you can establish tall places specifically for your cat. One way to keep your cats from continuously jumping on the counter is to install a cat tower near the problem counter.

Do not allow your cat to stay bored all of the time. Just like dogs, cats need playtime and physical exercise, too. Too many cat owners forget this simple fact. A bored cat runs the risk of developing depression and obsessive compulsive disorders that may harm them or something in your home. Give them lots of space for exercise and plenty of toys they can play with. Indoor cats will be happier if you provide them with climbing resources and practical things such as scratching posts.

Cats are partially nocturnal. This means that they will be the most active at night time. Shut the door to your bedroom. This helps to muffle the sounds of nighttime play. This will stop them from bothering you at night, and playing with your feet beneath the covers.

Cats spend a ton of time grooming themselves. Long-haired cats often develop hairballs. There are special foods you can buy to try to help with this particular problem. Some foods contain extra oils and nutrients, specifically designed to prevent or diminish hairball concerns.

You should now be able to step outside of your residence and defend against stray cats invading your yard. You will find that a fun cat is a great addition to your family. Obviously, cats are animals too, so they should still be handled carefully. You could even end up bonding with one of the feral cats.
