1.Inspire your pet cat to be more active.

Most individuals struggle with obesity as their waistlines continue to expand, and unfortunately, their pets are no exception.
According to a recent survey, roughly 55% of pet cats are overweight nowadays.
This is due to three primary factors: a sedentary lifestyle, a high-calorie diet, and too many snacks.
When cat owners allow their felines to play and exercise frequently, as well as give them with the necessary daily calorie meals, their cats will live longer and be healthier, rather than having a shorter lifespan and costly medicine problems.
Even the simplest cat toys can help an obese, sedentary kitty into a lean, active feline.

2.Take the cat outside to get some fresh air and sunlight.

Cat owners may disagree on whether their pets should be kept indoors or outdoors.
Whatever they choose, parents must ensure that their kitty has a safe place to enjoy the fresh air and sunshine.
They may want to consider building an enclosed cattery or catio to keep their cat safe when it is out in the open.

3.Create a high place for your cat to climb, hide, and observe.

The felines of today are descended from a 12,000-year-old ancestry of domestic cats.
According to research, all domestic pet cats now descend from a single ancestor: Felis sylvestris lybica, an ancient African wildcat.
Because this African wildcat still exists today, they are familiar with it.
Its modest stature is a distinguishing trait that makes it stand out.
The African wildcat is recognized to be a predator and prey because it evolved in the wild.
As a predator, the African wildcat ascended high into the trees/hills to hide and prepare for incoming prey. It climbed to find sanctuary in high locations where large predators couldn't pursue it as a prey.

What does this mean for cat owners and their feline companions? These modern housecats yearn for a high, secure hiding spot. Climbing to the top of a bookcase or refrigerator is a natural instinct for certain nimble cats.

4.Provide a scratching post for the pet cat's claws.

The claw of a cat will continue to expand.
They file their claws by scratching them on any surface because they don't get their claws cut very often.
This behavior, which was passed down from their forefathers, has more advantages than only nail clipping.

As a result, they can provide their cat with its own scratching surfaces to protect their home's furniture and pillows, among other things.
