It is very important that we keep an eye on them. Look for changes in appetite as there might be a medical reason like: dental disease, cancer, liver problems, infections, and kidney failure.

Your cat is a carnivore whose instinct is to hunt for food. In the wild your cat would hunt and catch one, two, or even three mice a day depending on the age and metabolic demand. Hunting is not grazing. Make sure your cat has things to climb on, like a multilevel cat tree or tower. Invest in a laser toy. Cats like to hunt therefore choose toys and activities that appeal to your cat’s stalking instinct. Drag a piece of string across the floor in view of your cat or ping-pong balls. Let your cat out into the fresh air, this stimulates the senses, and gets the paws in direct contact with the ground. A fully enclosed porch or patio area prevents your cat from getting out and other animals from getting in. |
