Summary: Over time, cats have proven to be well-adapted for human life, expressing qualities of loyalty, love, and friendship, as well as an ability to respond to simple commands. Studies have also shown that, aside from their usefulness as mice catchers, pets like cats can help dramatically reduce a person’s stress level. Having a domesticated cat, then, is a positive benefit for any pet owner.

Yet, the cat itself also needs love and care if it’s to thrive in its owner’s home. Cats are playful animals by nature: they like to have toys and to be entertained; they require regular exercise to keep obesity and sickness at bay; and they have a natural instinct for scratching things.

In this free cat care instructional video series, learn some tips on how to provide these types of care your for your feline friend. Our cat expert will include some techniques for walking your cat on a leash and teaching him to come when called. She’ll also give you hints on which toys cats like to play with, and how to teach them to use the scratching post instead of your furniture.
