Talking..or maybe meowing..Sleeping..Eating..the very basics to know,

Have you ever talked to your cat? Does your cat meow a lot? The more you speak to your cat, the more it will talk to you! When a cat meows, it is usually speaking to you, not other cats. Cats do not usually communicate through meowing. My cats talk all the time, probably because I talk to them all the time. Speaking to them, they will communicate back even if it means they want to be petted. My cat Peaches tends to communicate a lot, from telling me she wants attention, to that she doesnt want me to go to sleep, she does it all. She is a constant talker, and she tends to get my other kitties going.

What about feeding? What does your cat want? What is good for them? Talking to them is the best, but knowing what is good for your cats health will do your cat the best. Hard food should be a primary food for your cat. Any food that starts out with an sort of meal is not always the best choice. It is just a filler, in other words, the cheaper you go, the worse it is for your cat. Cats need meat, and any food with meat is good. I use Purina Pro Plan, it is not the most expensive, but it is not the cheapest food. It has exactly the ingredients I am looking for in a cat food. But what about soft food? Soft food is actually good for them too. I feed my cats soft food twice a week as a snack. It has extra water and nutrients any growing kitty needs.

What about sleep? My cats tend to sleep all day, although I do not know exactly what they are doing throughout the day... Hannah and Laney are the main sleepers in my family. They sleep all day, and have only a few short moments throughout the day that they play. But does it affect anything for the cat? No, cats sleep and it will not cause any problems. As kittens they play until they are tired, then the sleep to rejuvenate all their energy. Never worry about how much your cats are sleeping; they will always get much more sleep than you, and will never be able to catch up to them.

Tomorrow I hope to talk about play, and using the ole so favorite litter box, we will see you tomorrow.
