I read it's a good idea to point the laser on a few cat treats hidden in a corner when you're ready to end the laser playtime with the cat. The cat gets to actually "catch" something (the treats). And she feels rewarded for chasing the laser all over the place!
Great idea! The idea on the laser pointer from me would be, when you are finished playing with the cat and laser pointer. End up at toy that a cat usually hunts at by its own so it will actually manage to catch something. Since it's not really a treat but a toy, it's different but the idea behind is is the exact same. Respect for your comment.
Great tip! I’ve got to get a laser ... I’m only a week into this kitten/cat stuff ...
Great tip bro

Wait, what?! 🧐
I love how cats are almost like autistic people. The sensitivity, disliking change, and being not so sociable (of course there are exceptions) I relate a lot to my cat. When we have an unexpected visitor in the house or when there's too much noise, we both flee upstairs and chill in my bedroom!!
cazand I have Asperger Syndrome so that must explain why I can relate and love kitties so much ❤️
cazand Are you good at hunting mice and bird though? 😉
Maybe that's why cats love me so much. We're one of a kind.
I was about to say this literally describes me but for a different reason so now I have just another reason xD
cazand t
If your cat is shy around or afraid of other people, have the person offer the cat some treats. Many cats will respond if you create a positive association with new people.
carnivore, how about simply holding the cat in your arms...while the cat gets the scent of the other person ?
My cats hides and are impossible to find untill the visitors are in the house. Then they need about two hours to come out and act normally. And yes, I tried also with sintetic ferromons. 😑

My 6 year old miniature panther Vader, hates...I repeat..HATES my boyfriend. Like, wants his blood but my Miss Kokiki Mau adores John. John seems 2 think Vadreally is jealous which I find 2 be ridiculous & offensive 2 the intelligence of not just Vader but myself as well. I tell John, he's not a person that has it out 4 u, I think his reaction has more 2 do with a reaction 2 his hormones. Me & John just moved N 2gether & the 1st night was so hopeful, Vader actually rubbed up against Johns leg & LET JOHN PET HIM 4 several minutes lovin every second! Vaders usual response is 2 scream then go N2 full on attack & kill mode so as u can imagine we were both pleasantly surprised & thought the war was over but sadly the next day the war commenced😟 What is the reason 4 this violent & aggressive behavior towards my boyfriend? I've had a couple of steady boyfriend's & a couple unsteady boyfriend's N the last 6 years but Vader was completely accepting of them all, until he met John....that was a scary moment😕 Will he ever come around 2 accept John the way my girl cat does or will we have 2 fear a sneak attack around every corner? So frustrated & losing hope. Any advice?
My Cat loves when guests come he always starts playing and rolls around the floor.
Your cat is a dog
Saaaaaame
They develop allergy to any food brands they've been eating steadily. It happens every few years and no vet has ever seemed aware of it; instead pushing expensive prescriptions on my cats. If your cat is throwing up their food, having runny stool or turning food away then get a different brand and different protein. I've had cats 12 years (5 cats)and knowing this would have saved one of their lives.
my cat is never stressed about going to the vet,the vet saved her after she came to us for help,she was breathing very hard and the vet told my dad she got ran over and has everything shoved into her lungs so they gave her surgery which was very risky for that situation and she she got better afterwards and she's been our pet ever since then,and before she came to us she was a stray and one of our neighbors told us that the owner of her and other cats moved during the night abandoning them,people like that disgust me

I know right? How could someone do that to a LIVING CREATURE. I hope they got sent to jail for animal abuse, because that’s just WRONG.
My cat (who sadly passed away a few years ago) left her owner after his psycho girlfriend physically threw her out of the house into the pond, he left his girlfriend but the cat never went near him or his house again, a few families including us took her in and cared for her, she loved it, she could just go wherever she wanted to and knew she would be loved and given food, she never had too much though and even just before she died at about 18 (cancer) she was incredibly active. I still feel for her original owner though, it wasn't his fault.
Thats how I ended up with "tiger bob",or bob for short...my daughters friends family that lived by her grandmas(shed go there for the summer and play with them)had him since he was a kitten,had him declawed,and he was missing a fang...they up and moved and left him outside,no food,no water...so my daughter startes feeding him and setting water out and once we came to get her she asked me if we could keep him,I sat down next to him and started petting him as he ate and of course said yes...now hes my baby..but has real bad separation anxiety.if were not home he wont move,wont eat,or drink..he just lays there till were back.then I have to pick him up and walk around with him like a baby petting him and talking to him as he rubs my face and nuzzles my neck.then I feed him,he eats,uses the bathroom then hops in my lap and grooms and sleeps.he goes where I go,sleeps with me,everything..he even tries to groom me lol.hes an absolute sweet old guy.no clue why those pieces of shit abandoned him,but I gained a best friend out of it.
Edit.he was in rough shape too,hes a long hair and it was matted and tangled,could feel all his bones,and ate up with fleas...I took care of it all and hes a happy cat now.I spoil him too much but I know what its like to have a rough life so I just want to make sure his last few years are his best.
Getting a pet is a lifetime (theirs) commitment! Kind of like marriage. Not a momentary impulse, and don't expect children to take care of pets, they only think about the fun, not the daily responsibility. There are exceptions, of course.
I once bought an exercise bike and my cat hid behind the freezer for three days. I had to cover the bike with a blanket for the first two weeks and she was still terrified.
My Big Girl loves the sounds of music or Television,, mainly when there are commercials or programs with animals as the topic. She hates it when it is silent, because she then knows I am leaving the house. I sometimes leave the TV on for her,,, can't help it, she is like my kid. My big Girl,, who is the DIVA of the house.
I bought a laser pointer for my cat for Christmas and she was more interested in the actual laser pen than the light coming from it...
That's a cat.
And folks that is the definition of a cat 😂
I knew I was right about the laser. I always thought it must be quite frustrating for the poor cats not catching a damn thing after chasing that red spot around for some time.
I always said that
Me too
Same, and the bell as well..
I'm sensitive myself, I hated the bell noise so much I thought my cat couldn't possibly like it.. I didn't even where the so called pregnancy bell when pregnant with my kids.. what is it with people ans bells.. I understand they made the cat bell to protect birds, but really it's the same as with the laser, you'll get your cat depressed for not being able to catch anything..

Relax pal, if there are people making videos about this subject maybe not everyone knows that! There are lots of people who have no idea how complex a cat's personality can be and keep making mistakes and stressing the poor animals. So we should be thankful for these informative videos instead of acting like a**holes to others who just expressed their opinions. Good day to you.
I’ve had my 2 since 12weeks old. After my dad suffered a heart attack & passed away last Jan both now have high stress & anxiety & lots of attacks happening. One gets the worst of it. I just want them happy & stress free again
Great video. They love monotony, so every change affects them, always show love and patience.

My cat is seriously freaking out over the two new kittens. It's like Catmageddon.
Melissa .Garrett how did it work out for you?? My cat is so fussy it’s terrible 😢😭
You have to keep them separate for weeks at a time and slowly introduce them
@@marshadupree2968 I can't imagine someone like you being a cat lady.
Melissa .Garrett Don't Worry!
She is only Teaching them How To Behave around her.
She is the best kind of cat to have around, she will teach them respect, and good manners.
If she didnt do that, they'd be springing on her every time she left the catbox, they'd eat her food, they'd be too obnoxious for her.
She knows she has to scare 'em half to death to leave a lasting impression.
A gorgeous old female spayed b&w cat got dumped at my place, and when I got a kitten I realised someone prob. thought she'd hurt a kitten they got...she was
one of those really good teacher-cats.
I called her 'Sweetie'.
She was a very sweet old cat who was so depressed at losing her human family she slept for a week.
Cats are so relaxt . They sleep or meditate the whole day.
We make them stressed !
Really great vid! Noticed you guys had the title of #8 in Spanish by accident!
You are the best cat related channel i have ever found. How i wish more people watched this video.
My cat gets pretty nasty when we try to take her out and worse when we take her to the vet. She will even attack me and acts like she doesn't even know me. As soon as she's home, however, it's like a switch, it's all normal again.
Ifvwhen my cat behavior change he knows the deal behave are go back I'm not having it
Thank you this helped me a lot! 😇
Me: Stress in my cats? Let them get a job and then talk to me about stress.
Also Me: *taking notes and being worried I should change the way I massage them*
With you there. Cats and kittens can all burn in hell for all I care.
trau matose wtf no! Cats are living things too,you ant just treat them like crap. I’m fine with your opinion that you don’t like cats,but you shouldn’t say that they should die,seriously! I really don’t like it when people hurt animals,or even say that they should die,etc. 😠
Why I even watching this.....My cat is a feral cat.....this kind of thing does not bother him at all.....
My cat merely tolerates the vet visit, but when we get home, he tears into me like some kind of abusive psycho boyfriend. 😃😃I even see it in his eyes as he stares me down during the visit, like B, you are sooo going to get it when we get home!! He gives animal abuse a whole new meaning! Geez!!! Love him so much 😢😢
tee ell such behaviour shouldnt be encouraged
Mine avoids me and refuses to let me near her after taking her out
Exit the room when the vet checks on your cat so he won't associate you with the vet visit.
I’ve found expressions of gratitude help soften the command to stop a bad activity
My cat is a social cat, probably to social that he tries to make friends with other cats. The last time he tried to play with an adult male cat, boy that didn't go so well
Um, my cat won't eat the same food everyday, I have to change it up or else she would starve because she would refuse to eat.
Winter Moon omg samee
Winter Moon Yup, same thing here . I've 5 kitties and not one will eat the same food twice in a row. On top of things each cat likes different foods. Its a lot of work, but hey, what cats for, lol I love each one of them!
Chai'naMarie03 yeah, my cat won't eat anything with ocean white fish soni have to search for ingredients to make sure it doesn't have any in it even if it suppose to be salmon. She's very picky, she won't even eat this fishy smell vitamins I bought for her even mixed up in her food. So I had to use pills and sprinkle it in and mix it.
Chai'naMarie03 I have two cats and they too like different foods .
Winter Moon my cat Boston is the same way.. he likes different flavors.
Very informative...
Good to know. Thanks!

No. Kill the fleabags on sight if outside unattended.💀🐾👍
What's wrong with y'all.Y'all need help
@@traumatose6003 the hell
7 had me laughing... my cat LOVES visitors! cuddling and playing with them, getting lots of attention... shes a furry ball of love
My cat didn't have any problems when we moved. Will (my cat) lived from aged 4months to like 6 in the same apartment.
When we moved I moved him, his litter, and bowls last. When I got him to the new place he just went around rubbing on walls and looking around like it was already his place.
cats can be pretty chill when it comes to new places and people if they have someone they trust around.
My cat loves a laser pointer. But I don't use it too often and when I do I play with him afterwards with a wand. It gives him that feeling of accomplishment by catching it!
3:18 One of the causes was titled in Spanish instead of English. Do I win a prize for noticing?
pauldzim no.
I didnt even notice, thanks
Not sure about the prize thing tho, lol.
that's because the spaniards have alley gato rs
Because that cat meow in Spanish.
Vidya Sinha of course!
You win a like!
Very nice video perhaps a few more on collars with bells to encourage educate people not to use as it frightens most of them people new to cats find it amusing how the poor animal jumps and get scared all the time of the noise some kittys dont mind but majority hate it n if people dont know cats they think the cats r playing and having fun wheras its the complete opposite hope u ll shed some light with afew more of ur terrific videos!
Well how about that! 💡 And here I was thinking I knew everything about cats 😘 Thank you for this video! 💞

MadeInTheUSA1975 i was about to comment "when you see mom!"

When you play with a string toy on a stick, the feather ones are best.
Move it as a bird would move, when injured.
Make sure cats get a 'kill' before u stop the game.
Best "kill" a cat or kitten is their own kill.
We've found that softly snapping our fingers is a great way to get our cat (all cats we've had) away from things that he shouldn't be around then we praise him and give him lots of petting when he moves away from the object and towards us.
Thanks for the video. I'm fostering two brothers (probably permanent). Thought to be about 9 years old. They had been strays but stuck together being very close. One is absolutely fine and loves being combed and stroked but his brother is still very nervous and although he's improved over the months, he still backs away from me despite my efforts with treats etc. If any of you lovely cat lovers out there have any ideas I could try I would love to hear from you. Unfortunately the tame brother has advanced kidney disease so I'm anxious to get his brother settled asap.
I have several cats and on a few occasions I bought scratching posts that were not sturdy and toppled over so what I did was put them under the legs of my sofa. This saves my sofa and also I have use for the scratching posts that otherwise would be thrown away, along with the money I spent for them
When my cat see's a laser pointer, she transforms into gymnast!
Lovely kitties ❤️💕
My cat is blind. so it changes things. Furniture stays in place, no loud noises, crinkle toys, lots of stimulation of other senses. Catnip!! lol
My cat loves going to the Vet, it's like a nice outing for him, he doesn't want to leave :)
Laser pointer is a no-no. If you play with your cat you need to let them catch their "prey" often. That makes them happy and not irritated.
I'm moving soon and kitty will also have to be an indoor cat...nervous for the little guy! Got the pheromone spray, cat-ifying my place and fingers crossed!!
“Wilt thou not chase the red dot? Art not game for Moby Laser?” 🌊🐋
I don’t use a laser pointer but I have Chrystal chime in my window. My cat loves chasing the sparkling lights every day.
I have a Russian Blue, and this breed doesn't take change well at all. She usually takes months getting use to a new home...
Just for fast:
1. Visiting the veterinarian
2. Moving house
3. Changing the furniture
4. Arrival of a new family member
5. Loud or constant noises
6. Using a laser pointer
7. Visits from outside persons
8. Los gritos y castigos inadecuados
9. Changing their food
10. No scratcher available
11. Lack of mental stimulation
Thanks, I don't think I would have ever figured out what things cause stress in cats without your post.
Whenever im going to the vet with my cat and she's in a carrier she makes this really sad meow it breaks my heart
A small speaker/player that plays special healing frequencies and relaxing music for pets. It's amazing how all animals respond to this in relaxation and pure contentment. No more anxiety. No more fear from thunder, and lightning.
Many animals are stressed when they go to the veterinarian's office. Stressed pets create stressed owners and stressed veterinary staff! Wholetones is our #1 tool for relaxing not just the pets, but the pet parents. As an integrated veterinarian, I seek to avoid sedative drugs, preferring safe, natural solutions. My go-to solution is Wholetones. I have seen aggressive animals become calm and tolerate handling without needing muzzles or sedatives. We have also been successful using Wholetones for thunderstorm anxiety and separation anxiety. So grateful to Michael Tyrrell for discovering this gift and sharing it with the pet community.

Now my sister had a cat who loved wearing its collar. Walked around like it was a diva.
thanks for your information. lol from BANGLADESH
Lovely cats
My cat screamed every minute in the carrier. So she always saw the vet right away. No complaints. When I say SCREAM? Veterinary assistants were outside because they could hear her 2-3 blocks away!
If you want to prevent your cat from scratching on the corners of your furniture just dust or spray on a minimal amount of hot chili powder (Not even elephants can stand it!) There are many colors of chili powder from red, black to white to blend in. I tried it all to get them to stop scratching from 2 sided tape to the no chew spray but nothing worked until the chili powder that I applied 1 time over a year ago..They have not once scratched any of the furniture or the new tweed textured dining room chairs. My cats have 4 of there own scratch poles so I think they were trying to mark. I wish I knew of this solution years ago. I hope it helps and saves many couches:)
Great video! Do you have any tips about how to prepare your home for the arrival of a cat? That would be highly informative! :D
May be too late but even just for the records just "swapping" phenomenons of each cats works. To "harvest" that when the cat is used to his/her humans as well as the room or level it's "isolated" in just swap the NEW cat supplies (blankets, pillows, and/or other supplies that your cat lay, sleeps, or even rubs against) to the OLD cats. While bringing into the "isolation area" the OLD cats' supplies. Rinse and repeat this process until all hissing and growling comes to stop. THEN under supervision let it rip and let the new cat out of isolation for a few minutes (like 5-15) or until the cat(s) get upset. If the latter happen then pull back the timing further until they are "tolerable" then a few days at a time up the time a bit. Eventually you will be able to leave them in the DAY time unsupervised for a bit (work, to the store etc etc etc) but still isolate the NEW cat in it's area until this is done during the NIGHT. Only when they are completely comfortable then you may introduce the cat completely but the first few nights I would further see if you can "spa check" just to make sure no "bunny business" is going on. Labor intensive but ensure limited problems and without questionable diffusers which often are dangerous (even cancer causing in many units) and crazy expensive.
Try to see what potential dangers are sitting around in your home that can cause cats injury as well as securing ornaments on table tops with double sided adhesive tape to prevent them from being knocked down and smashing on the floor. Check for dangerous choking hazards and don't leave any medications laying about. Cats are like small children, their curiosity can put them in terrible danger. Also, try to ensure that there are at least two cardboard boxes that are big enough as hiding spaces for a cat. They need these for alone time and somewhere to feel safe.
I have been giving my cats hands on daily attention ever since they have been little babies. And living in a very small home has been great for growing that bond we have today.
A cat's only enemy appears to be another cat.
Not if they are siblings or grew up to be best buds!
BIG QUESTION! WHAT BREED IS THE KITTEN AT THE END OF THE VIDEO? I just got a kitten that looks just like the one at the end and I’ve been wondering what breed he is! thanks
Is my cat under stress? Every 1am-4am there are times she will just be a little aggressive and starts to run everywhere and she even bite and scratch me
So your saying my cats are stress?! How! They be living the best life
It riles the hell out of me to see adolescent behavior out of cat owners. They seem to like feeding their sadistic hunger by taunting their sensitive cats. It all boils down as to why have a cat if you don't want to show it love and compassion?
some people just don't understand that cats have a very different psychological profile than dogs, really i think a lot of people think that they're similar enough. things that would be fun for a dog are often irritating for a cat, i don't think it's intentional though.
I remember I once heard someone yelling at my cat and that pissed me off.
I think it takes an interesting type of person to yell at an animal.
Hi, on the last one, can you give me a site to check what cat stimualnt excerises are?
4:38 Looks just like my squeaky!!!
Mine goes bananas when I clean. He runs from room to room, gets under my feet. Drives me nuts. He likes to get in the middle of it. "I don't need your help! Beat it!"
my cat loves going to the vet, she puts her nose in the air and prances around, like we bring her there to show off or something. maybe it's cuz we have a super nice vet she likes :3 still hates jazz music and vacuum cleaners though
These cats r sooooo ADORABLE, just like my 2 Kitty's r....Harley n Davidson !!🥰😋❣️🌞💋❤️💜💙

Can you spray the synthetic pheromones to visitors? (Dont know if thats the correct spelling )
The last kitty😘😘😘😘😘😘
So that's why my cousin's cat hid every time I visit and didn't trust me. I was young and didn't know then. I rarely messed with him. But when he came to me and sniffed me I showed that I was friendly and he eventually trusted me.
cats often suffer from PTSD
hammad shakil how so?
I guess he says it because they get scared by nothing
Person Touching Syndrome Disorder XD
Bullshit.
trau matose oh shut up,if you don’t like cats then just leave them alone,please.
my cat prefer my hands and feet to bite and play with rather than his expensive toys.
Another unsettling experience for a cat is the change in brand or type of kitty litter provided. The various litters all smell and feel different to a cat and cats are most contented when everything in their lives is familiar.
Melissa Barrett they do not like covered boxes either.
@@catmagic2226 That hasn't been my experience. The cats that I have had liked covered boxes because it allowed them to do their business in a quiet place where they could watch the entry/exit and not be fearful of being crept up on. Not all cats are the same.
@@melissabarrett9750 their boxes arent supposed to be in high traffic areas tho.
As prey animals, cats feel vulnerable when going potty.
@@catmagic2226 Who puts their boxes in high traffic areas?
@@melissabarrett9750 well, idk. Why do they feel they have to watch the entrance?
I mean, perception is a tricky thing...what's low traffic to a person might not be, to a cat.
Younger cats'll jump cats coming out of a covered box, the cat in the box with a lid will eventually avoid lidded boxes if that happens.
There are many factors at play with litterbox placement and etc.
I got my cat into some light weight training back in Nov and now he puts up 300lb like nothing. Other day we tried 355 and I heard a loud distress meow and me and the spotters went ahead and racked it, a quick trip to the vet and some ice now kitty is all better. It's not thst hard to train them once the weight is unracked the cat will always push away the weight to prevent from being crushed and go pros dot com sells the thinner bars so they can grip them. Fuck
Most amazing cat I like
My cats 🐈 is very friendly with everyone and specially when kids around him. sometimes I’m scared maybe somebody will come and take him away from me
My cat first time peeing on the bed.
I'm smashed by the bucket.
Today's she has scared and stressed no eating all day. I don't know what to do with this situation?
She's under on heat this time.
My cat was going after the light from my dads laser pointer and she looked up at where it was coming from and batted it out of his hand claws not extended she would grab onto their feet when they tried sleeping but with both of my parents high in age I was worried it would hurt them. But she didn't bite at all just grabbed the feet and held on while rubbing her head into them. She doesn't do this to a head or head area but the feet.
He told me that I had a very smart cat.
I'd love to have a cat and I'm binge-watching cat videos all the time...my family just says i can have one when i live alone
AthenaJoy - go get one anyway.
I binged watched cat videos too. I adopted my cat Boo and oh man. It's like a marriage or something. It's work right now she's young it will get easier but I had to literally take a break one day cause I was o my living for my cat and not me. It's worth it though.
I did the same thing think about hard ok they hand full domestic cats are the best to have for hours cat do your homework good 10 years long time Vet ,Salon ,bathing grooming playing cleaning they toilet I wish I change my mine they just raising kids 🤦♀️🤷♀️you be say stop that quite that get out there get down you bout to pull your hair out 😄😄
@@mrsstrawberryluv1 Would you speak ENGLISH, please!
Make the cat outdoor
Yes deviants said : Yes sure, some just is better than other
I live next to county fairgrounds and there are several events during the year where fireworks are set off. Not just nightly during the fair itself but multiple holidays in our multicultural area. I used to shelter my cat during those with hus head tucked into my elbow or other spot that would at least reduce the impact of the explosions that were going off almost directly overhead.
so basically dont do anything without consulting the cat first
You look smart my cat is a female cat, her sister had kittens. The problem is my cat think shes the mother of the kittens and she grooms the kittens. But she didn't let her sister (the mother of the kittens) give them milk. she gets angry when we try to remove her or touch the kittens, what I've done is continuously remove her and lock her in the other room for hours. and today she is not energetic and have symptoms of a stressed cat.(Its impossible that she had a previous condition or ate something toxic it's IMPOSSIBLE)I'm afraid i have STRESSED my cat because she doesn't want to interact or eat and TRYS to vomit out something( Gags everytime i touch her throat, she doesn'thave diarrhea either). She growls when i touch her/pick you up, as if she was angry and purrs(does a werid noise) when i barley touch her. What is wrong with my cat? Will she die? Can i do anything that will bring her back? What do i do?
got her from the pound and she was very very aggressive. Vet said it could take as much as 2 years to settle down..she hated me and my bombay with a passion that was in 2016..I fed her and would sometimes give her one pat as I walked by her on her perch..gradually increased the pats..it is now 2019 and she will sleep on my bed let me pet her often..I can pick her up but not wrap my arms around her .. I could not bear to take her back to the pound..I am sure they would have ethuanized her...things are much better now..she will never be the loving companion that my black cat is but she has come a long way in her 4 short years. And i do think she loves me in her own way..she can take or leave the other cat mostly leave lol
Your cat may have been mistreated by a previous owner.
I toss a dental treat at the end of laser light play. She gets to catch her prey. When Brighid was a kitten, I fed her a mix of high quality food. I still feed her a mix. This way if one food becomes unavailable she’s used to eating others.
My boy lived in a basement for one year ALONE !! Never socialized
When he came to live with me he was one year old and 18 lbs. We live in an upstairs apartment. The Tennants down stairs make ALOT of noise !! We can hear everything they do, like walking. They walk hard like a herd of elephants. They scratch their chairs across the kitchen floor. ( that is just a few examples. They also love to slam every door ) My boy is so nervous, if he sits on my chair with me and I should move my floor, it scares him to death. I have never seen a kitty like him and I had 13 kitties living in a house that were nothing like him. I got another cat thinking he would like a kitty to play with.. This kitty was 5 years old and also lived in a basement for 4 years. He was a little socialized. My boy was so jealous of him. It has been two years and he has come a long way but the jealousy and still overly nervouse. I tried Feliway but it didn't help. When someome comes over he runs and hides. His Vet will not give him medicine for that she says they all affect his liver. Something has to be done.
I know the traffic and noise from downstairs is a major problem. Does anyone have help for him or can tell me how to help him???
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thank you so much !!!
i dont know if they work but some people make their cats listen to relaxing music apparently??
At 00:30, the cat would have lived less than one more minute. Outside, backyard, bang, garbage bag. Completely painless for either party.
Poor kitties. But I do love cats
Cat: *Rubs body on couches*
My mom: Since when have u paid the bills?

Better be lucky they’re eating! All the strays around here, cat can’t possibly be picky with food

GOOD VIDEO CLIP
LOVELY 🐹🐹🐹
My cat loves the laser pen. Whenever he sees the pen he starts looking for the dot :)
Then you and your cat will LOVE this: A small speaker/player that plays special healing frequencies and relaxing music for pets. It's amazing how all animals respond to this in relaxation and pure contentment. No more anxiety. No more fear from thunder, and lightning.
Many animals are stressed when they go to the veterinarian's office. Stressed pets create stressed owners and stressed veterinary staff! Wholetones is our #1 tool for relaxing not just the pets, but the pet parents. As an integrated veterinarian, I seek to avoid sedative drugs, preferring safe, natural solutions. My go-to solution is Wholetones. I have seen aggressive animals become calm and tolerate handling without needing muzzles or sedatives. We have also been successful using Wholetones for thunderstorm anxiety and separation anxiety. So grateful to Michael Tyrrell for discovering this gift and sharing it with the pet community.
We are Naturopathic doctors and highly recommend Wholetones.
