How can I make my cat more beautiful?

Spend special attention creating rituals with your kitty after it is weaned, plus consider adopting a sibling or two for your kitties

I suggest rescuing cats and adopting cats of all ages. Provide regular cuddle time. Cats only vocalize with humans, so they are trying to communicate with you. Learn their body language, from slow eye-blinks for “I love you” to their twitchy tails.

Establish a time for daily play to be rewarded by treats for good behavior and just for fun. I suggest supervised walks with your kitty on a harness or allow supervised time in a well-protected outside area where they cannot escape.

Of course, occasional baths help with daily brushing, plus regular vet visits, teeth cleaning and shots, but get your pet fixed as per the suggestion of your vet.

Make sure you feed your cats high-quality wet or dry food. We use both. Never give your cats salted food and be aware that some human foods or plants are poisonous to kitties.

Cats will get sick and can have kidney and bladder challenges. Be sure to monitor how much each one eats and drinks. Make sure that the cats get along and don’t have hurtful fights. Kitty Nip also can relax your little buddies.

I’m sure there are a zillion more tips but do read as much as you can, ask questions and enjoy your faithful feline friends! We adore our three!

Do cats get emotionally attached to their owners like dogs?

Kevan Goff-Parker, Kevan Goff-Parker Communications Owner at Kevan Goff-Parker Communications (2009-present) Answered Aug 14

Absolutely! My husband and I have raised numerous kittens from various ages into senior citizens, and we can assure you that all cats are unique and have as many different personalities as people do.

Cats have been known to stay in areas where their owners last stayed for years in hopes they’ll return. Some have traveled hundreds of thousands of miles to return to their owners’ homes, just to be with those they love.

We have a very loving 15-year-old male tuxedo cat named Pilgrim, since we adopted him from a shelter around Thanksgiving in 2005.

When we moved to the Greater Seattle area from OKC in 2006, he was fine with his older adopted kitty brother with him, but when we left the Pacific NW and moved to Texas in 2009, he became very withdrawn.

Mind you, our cats are only let out with supervision in the backyard, but Pilgrim hid, lost weight, and mourned for our former home and some of the fosters we cared for and found homes for.

I took him to a local vet who examined him and said he was healthy but depressed and suggested that some deep tissue massage would help.

We began immediately and his anxiety and fear eased. Today, he’s a bit anxious if I go to another part of the house, but knows I’ll return, and he always feels better and reassured with his massages.

I recently lost my dad and Pilgrim puts his paw on my arm if I’m in tears and never leaves my side.

Cats see us as their big cat parents. They love us and often bring presents, their toys and such when they want to play or express their love.

We are blessed by our three rescues’ incredible capacity to love!

Here are his adopted brothers. I feel very loved by our three little boys!
