Living with a cat: 5 things to never do
Living with a cat: 5 things to never do
Anonim

The cat is one of the most loved pets when it comes to adding a new member to one's family. The characteristic that distinguishes him from the others is his perennial curiosity towards everything that surrounds him, as well as obviously his somewhat enigmatic nature. The fact that, unlike a dog, he is not the type to welcome his family on the doorstep when they return home does not mean that he is not able to thank you in his own way. Here it is though 5 things to never do to a cat, or at least to avoid whenever possible.

Deprive him of his favorite food

Anyone who has never had a cat probably does not know that these animals are a lot greedy but at the same time squeamish: if the food is not to their liking they will tend to ignore it, and in extreme cases they will start scattering it on the ground to express their disappointment.

Give him non-fresh water

Cats are animals that by nature do not have much sympathy for stagnant water and sometimes this leads them to drink very little. If not change the water regularly of their bowl, keeping it always fresh will make its hydration even more difficult: dirty or hot water is not inviting for anyone, not even for your cat. Don't be surprised if he reacts by trying to drink directly from a tap!

Wake him up while he sleeps in his favorite place

During the day the cat needs to take as many breaks in which recover lost in his various activities. In addition to being a necessity, the sleep it is a pastime that he enjoys very much, so waking him up (even if it is to play with it) will only generate “hatred” towards you. Never wake up a sleeping cat: much better to wait for him to come to you after sleeping!

Make him travel

Cats are extremely territorial, especially compared to dogs: they are in fact the only animals that hate traveling with their humans. Many of them tend to get very nervous during a trip and can't wait to go home to be able to relax again in their favorite places. Remember that the cat is an animal that makes of routine a lifestyle!

Stop him from getting his nails done

Nail care is one of the most important habits for cats, which unlike dogs have retractable nails that will not wear out simply by walking. For this reason they need to sharpen your nails: buying a scratching post can be an excellent solution for both you and them.
