Cats are like humans too. They have issues and they act based on these issues which could be interpreted differently on our own perspective. There are cats that act like they have a problem. Well, guess what? Indeed they have a problem and that’s the reason why they are exhibiting a rather odd behaviour which could really take some time before any human being could fully comprehend what it truly means. There are readily available medications now that are already available and out in the market that may or may not actually solve the issue. There are simply just too many facts, when all the cat needs is just a little of your love and understanding.

Blog the Change: Better Care for Cats

AHawkins — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 07:03:37 +0000

Cats need to be checked by a veterinarian in a regular basis for health reasons. Its first few visits will have to be for its vaccinations against common and fatal diseases. Vaccines could help a lot in preventing some fatal yet preventable diseases to hit your cat. You should never have second thoughts having it vaccinated from the very moment that it is already good enough for vaccination. Your visit to the veterinarian should not stop to the vaccinations stage; it should not even be limited to the occasional visits due to sickness. As much as possible, bring your cat to the doctor at least twice a year.

Why Do Cats Eat Grass?

AHawkins — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:52:03 +0000

Cats are natural carnivores, so it really makes such a fuss when you see a cat eat grass, right? You might think that your cat could get sick from eating the grass and you will do all you could to drive it away from the grass. Your intention might be good, but there is no basis to your presumption, in fact, eating grass is a great help to your cat. There are things that your cat can’t digest, and it simply couldn’t just pull out those indigestible things that it happened to shove into its mouths, just like you would stick-in your finger into your mouth to help you pull out something from your stomach. This is actually what the grass does, it helps the cat regurgitate the indigestible foods out from its stomach, and spare it from illness.

Cat Bitten by Dog

AHawkins — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 19:22:47 +0000

Cats and dogs are natural enemies. Even way before they know how to actually bite, each of them already knows who the enemy is. Dogs are bigger so it’s only natural to take an aggressive stance towards cats. Cats in return would run away from dogs. These things are pretty much normal, however when their constant fighting is already coupled with biting, you should start worrying already. Cats are not immune to rabies resulting from a dog bite. They could get heavily injured and may die even from an innocent bite. If ever it happens, go directly to your veterinarian and have your cat checked.
