Helpful Information for Cats Owners

Cats can't sweat to cool themselves. Instead of panting like a dog to cool off, cats rely on the saliva spread on the fur. It evaporates to help cool the kitty in hot weather.

I have some ideas and information for cats owners that I have learnt over the years of caring for my cats, yes we do love our cats, as they are members of the family and when they pass away it hurts us as much as losing a member of our family.

There are 35 million cat owners in the United States, millions of these cat owners love their special pets enough to celebrate Christmas with them and give them special gifts.

More than 13 million cats receive birthday celebrations, and why not?

Cats are very lovable, so why not share a gift with them on a special occasion, it makes you happy just seeing your cat taking an interest in the new gift and that is good for your self-esteem and happiness.

Cats can be happily kept inside all the time, and an indoor cat is much healthier and safer than an outdoor cat. It is too dangerous outside for a cat to roam freely, but they truly benefit from fresh air, stimulation, and exercise that come with the great outdoors. Also, in some areas, it is not legal to allow your cat outdoors off your property.

Like most people who own cats, we want them to be as safe as possible and allowed to roam without restriction. Cats like to be outside when possible and should be able to enjoy that freedom just like humans do. A great way to allow this freedom is using a large cat cage.

Large cat cages allow the cat to play in a protected area without the worry of harm from other animals and these cages keep your pet in a controlled area. Some of these cages have shelves, toys, playgrounds, chairs, items that you would have in your home available for your feline friend while in the cage.

When shopping for a cat cage, the bigger the better. This gives your pet plenty of room to move around in the cage so they do not feel confined. Consider a modular cat cage system. These systems use panels which can be added to or subtracted making the cage very versatile. Remove a few panels and you can move the cage indoors when you are away from home to keep your pet in the area you want. Take the cage outside and add a few more panels and you can create a large playground and not worry about where your pet is. A good quality cat cage must be able to do 2 things, keep your pet in the area you want them to be and protect them from other roaming animals.

Routine physical examinations that are important in cats because they can have a number of treatable diseases without showing any signs. The above video describes examples of these “secret diseases.”

Cats are not color blind, they see some colors, they may not see colors as clear as humans do, but it's not like that they cannot see any colors at all. Cats can also see clearly from afar.

It's very different from people. They find it blurry to be looking at things that are too close to them. Yes, cats have the nocturnal vision. But they can't see in complete darkness. You see the muscles on their iris that surround the pupils of their eyes,are constructed in a way that it narrows into a vertical split when they are exposed to bright, lights and opens fully when they are in a quite dim light.
