5 Fun Things To Do With Your Cat This Weekend
Yep, seriously. Some cats love to go for walks (others don’t and that’s OK too.) “The benefits of going for a walk with your cat includes mental, emotional and physical stimulation and exercise that they wouldn’t get otherwise, especially if they are indoor cats,” says Dr. Sarah Wooten, DVM. However, it’s important to put safety first, and that means investing in a well-fitting cat harness, like the PetSafe Come With Me Kitty Harness & Bungee Cat Leash. (No, don’t use the one for your dogs!) “The main safety concern is making sure that your cat is wearing a properly fitted harness that they can’t slip out of, and keeping appropriate distance between your cat and anybody who is walking their dog,” Dr. Wooten explains. “Appropriate distance means far enough that there is no physical contact between the animals, far enough so that your cat feels comfortable and doesn’t display signs of fear.”,Have you noticed that sound lately? It’s like our cats’ purr button has been constantly switched on for the last year or so thanks to us being home more often. Our cats may not understand why we turned the dining room table into a WFH space, but they do know it means extra attention and cuddles. It’s important to spend time with your feline friend no matter what is going on in the world at large. That quality time—whether it’s playtime or snuggle time—strengthens the human-animal bond and provides them with much needed enrichment. Looking for something new to do with your four-legged companion this weekend? Here are five fun things to do with your cat that will ensure their purr button stays on!
