HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR CAT’S PHYSICAL WELL-BEING

There is a common misconception that cats are low-maintenance pets. They’re not high-maintenance pets, but they need certain things. A lot of these responsibilities are easy to uphold and becomes routine; others only require occasional attention.

Keep your cat physically healthy through:

  • Frequent appropriate exercise
  • Routine feline parasite prevention
  • Yearly check-ups and veterinary visits when needed
  • A healthy, nutritious diet suited to your cat’s needs
  • Decent oral health to prevent gum and tooth diseases
  • Basic home health checks (e.g. check for ear discharge)
  • Making sure there is always clean water in a clean water bowl
  • Kitten vaccinations followed by recommended booster vaccinations
  • Grooming: Brushing, bathing and nail clipping as often as recommended
  • Keep your cat away from feline toxins (certain foods, household items, medicines, plants, etc.)
