Playful cats

Cats like closed areas like cardboard boxes and cat beds where they can relax. Do not be surprised with the cat’s need of sleep; the cat saves energy to be able to hunt at night. Allow your cat to hunt – the pray does not have to be a live bird or mouse, but perhaps a toy. Playing is important, especially to kittens as it will help the kitten to learn how to socialise and hunt, skills which are important in the adult life.

Scratching is important

Communication through smells is important to the cat as it has the possibility of leaving messages to other cats through scratching, marking a territory and urinating. This means that your cat needs the opportunity of scratching indoor and preferably in different places. By offering the cat one or several scratchers, you can avoid destroyed furniture.

Fun and charming

When you watch the suppleness and grace of a cat, inevitably, you also think of its playful character. Watching a small kitten with big, round eyes, running sideways towards a ball, makes us smile. An adult cat playing with the pages of a book, you are reading - yes, a cat playing is fun and charming. As for most other animals, playing usually takes place among youngsters. Playing functions as a practical way of learning social and hunting skills, which are essential in the adult life.
