My Bestfriend

Playing with your cats is a great way to bond with them and at the same time give them the exercise they need. Interactive playing (that’s you playing with your cat) hones their hunting skills, helps maintain their healthy weight, it’s also a good way to release negative energy (aggression), and more importantly, it’s fun!

My cat lover friend, Shaun Olmstead, warns though, that cats are not dogs. You shouldn’t accustom them to play with your hands while they are still kittens. They should be taught, early on, that your hands are not toys. You may enjoy the gentle biting, scratching and pouncing while they are still young, but when they get older, you wouldn’t want to know what those full-sized teeth and claws can do!
