So let’s talk a little about cat bedding. Felines like to lounge for the better part of the day. That’s just what they do. Most cats will relax and lounge on anything they find comfortable. Many times it a favorite couch, chair, comfy corner or their most favorite place in the world—the bed. Sometimes they sleep in places we would not think was comfortable at all. For instance, my Floofa likes to sleep on the top shelf of my METAL, 4-tier organizer. Not very comfortable. I felt so bad I ended up putting a blanket on the shelf so she could be more comfortable. At least in my eyes.
- They provide a comfy safe place for your kitty to lounge which makes them feel special.
- It provides a specific place for your cat(s) to lounge or sleep. This in turn will keep them off of your furniture or your bed.
Cat collar review readers, what do you think about draping a nice stylish plaid cat collar around your cat’s neck? A plaid collar you ask? “Come on, really?” You say. Well, I say yes! Why not? What we North Americans call plaid is an old woven material which has a ton of rich history behind it. Tartan, as the Scottish peoples would call it, is the criss-crossed pattern woven with a variety of different color bands. Tartans would eventually come to be associated with different regions or clans. This association with different clans was not always the case. Tartans are blankets and the kilts which are familiar as Scotland’s national dress. It is interesting to note however that kilts did not become popular until the 1700′s.
Also, top designers make really cool clothes and other accessories with plaid. One designer I can think of right off hand is the Burberry fashion house. Burberry creates handbags, belts, scarfs, and yes, even plaid designer cat collars with their well known and distinctive black, tan and red checked design. What cat wouldn’t want to make a fashion statement by wearing and historical and charming collar around it’s neck? You can find an array of plaid collars all over the Internet in many prices and many colors.
One more thing! Red and green plaid are fashionably worn around the holidays. And it always looks good around Christmas. Make your cat part of the festivities by adorning him or her in a nice plaid cat collar.
It’s almost summer and flea season has already begun. Take a look at your cat(s). If they are constantly scratching this could mean that your cat has a flea problem which need to be brought under control. Take action right away if you think your cat has fleas or ticks. If you feel their is a problem and it is not brought under control as soon as possible you can find yourself with a much larger problem than you anticipate.
If you want to stop fleas on your kitty before they get out of control , use topical products such as Program or Frontline. These are pre packaged treatments which you open and apply to your cat”s skin and coat. When fleas try to make their home on your pet, these products kill them before they can lay eggs. Many veternarians suggest using these products. For the most part, topical products can be the best products for the prevention of fleas. However, be sure to read the directions because these products are harmful if used on small kittens.
You can also use flea or tick collars and baths as well. Most veterinarians don’t suggest using flea cat collars because they are not effective. You want to be careful if you do decide to use flea collars. These types of collars contain flea powder which can be ingested by your cat. These collars can also irritate your cats skin due to allergic reactions. So if you do decide to use them be aware of these underlying problems they can cause.
If push comes to shove and fleas have come to live in your house, you may have to use a flea bomb. Take precautions. Remove you and your pet from the household before you bomb and make sure you do not return for the alloted amount of time. Usually 12-24 hours. There are also natural flea treatment remedies which you can use around your home. Treating for fleas outside of your home is a great idea be because most cats will acquire fleas while they are outside. Some natural flea prevention remedies include, borax or even eucalyptus.
With a little bit of forethought and planning you and your cats can enjoy a summer without unwanted fleas as house guests.
