I’ve often cringed when I’ve heard people referring to kicking the proverbial cat.  This come from a time when it was still acceptable to treat animals cruelly and in frustration people would give the cat a good kick.  It does not conjure up a pleasant image and I look forward to the day when that saying dies out completely.

When settling in a new cat to your home there are several steps you can take to ensure the adjustment period goes as smoothly as is possible. Whether you have bought your cat from a rescue home or from a breeder the ca or kitten is likely to find its first experiences of your home unnerving.  You’ll need some sensitive handling to help your new friend settle in.

Firstly pen up the home in small stages.  Initially confine the cat to one room equipped with a bolt hole which can be in the form of a cat igloo or somewhere similar to run and hide when they get too nervous.  Also include a covered litter tray ad a scratch post of around one metre high.  After a week, start to open up the cat’s access to the rest of the house.  This slowly, slowly approach will help to build your cats confidence.

Old age comes to us all and its no different for your cat.  For you this means taking a bit more time to care and look after your old timer and you should expect to have to visit the vet more often to ensure no niggles turn into major issues.

The major difference you’ll notice in your cat is that they are less mobile that they once were.  This means they’ll be even bigger comfort seekers than before.  They’ll need a cozy, soft area to sleep in away from cold drafts.  This will make sure your cat stays healthy as long as possible.

Well, Bonfire Night is here although if you’re a cat you’d be forgiven for believing it was a month long event!  There have been fireworks exploding around my neighbourhood for a good three weeks already and no doubt they will continue for a few weeks more.
