Play time!

Cats naturally use objects to scratch, to mark their territory, strengthen their muscles and sharpen their claws. Provide your cat with a sturdy scratching post which is tall enough for him/her to use fully stretched, especially if he/she doesn’t go outdoors. Safe toys and regular opportunities to play with friendly people and by him/herself will help keep your cat stress-free, healthy and happy. You could even try adding interest to meal times by hiding dried food or using a puzzle feeder.

Be observant. If your cat’s behaviour changes or he/she shows regular signs of stress or fear, talk to your vet who may suggest referral to a clinical animal behaviourist. Never shout at or punish your cat, as he/she is very unlikely to understand and may become even more nervous or scared.
