Some Cat Hazards

Some Cat Hazards

Cats can get themselves into all kinds of predicaments. They say curiosity killed the cat, which can be a true statement regarding our feline friends. Cats are very adventurous and will try to attempt the impossible sometimes. As the old saying goes, cats do not always land on their feet.

Cats love eating house plants or flowers that may kill or make them sick. I do not keep any plants or flowers in my house. If someone gives me flowers, I put them in a room my cats cannot access. Cats can vomit, go into convulsions or die by eating leaves and flowers or drinking water with chemicals to preserve the flowers.

Keep antifreeze, oil, gas, and farm chemicals in closed containers so your cat will not suffer from a painful death by ingesting these substances into their body. Put mouse and rat poison in an enclosed trap so your farm cats cannot eat it and bleed—tight paint containers and cleaning supplies. Never leave your medicine sitting out, as a kitty could knock the bottle over, ingest your pills, and die. Keep all your household cleaners closed; your cat cannot assess in an area.

Ensure you have not locked your cat in a building where he could starve to death. Check under your car tires or your car’s motor if you do not happen to notice your cat. Many cats have gotten run over by accident or succumbed by the car motor or belts, or blades in your car.

Do not leave your house with just the screen in your window. Cats have clawed up the screens or pushed against them so hard the screen gave away, and their cat fell out of a high-story building. A house cat does not stand much of a change if it gets outdoors as it does not know how to fend for itself and all the dangers that lurk outdoors.

I hope you and your cat stay safe and sound for many years to come and create many perfect memories throughout your years together.

Gen 7 Pets Carry - Me Sleeper From Chewy.Com

Gen 7 Pets Carry – Me Sleeper From Chewy.Com

I received a Gen 7 Pets Carry-Me Sleeper from Chewy.Com to facilitate my review. All thoughts are 100 % honest and my own.

I set the carry-me sleeper on my Living Room floor, and Garfunkel walked right in. I was very impressed with the Gen 7 Pets Carry – Sleeper From Chewy.Com because Garfunkel just walked straight in alone with no help from me. I struggle to get a cat into a cat carrier but not this time. Garfunkel thought of the airline as a bed, so he felt comfortable and safe walking into the carrier bed combo made by Gen 7 Pets.

My cat Kohl walked into the Gen 7 Pets Carry-Me Sleeper that converted from a carrier into a bed from Chewy.Com and did not want to leave the comfort of the bed in the carry-me sleeper, and he had an hour-long cat nap in the sleeper until nature called. Conrad smelled the bed and wanted to go in it, but Kohl said it was all mine and mine alone since I am the senior cat in the household. The next day, Kohl returned the Gen 7 pets carry-me sleeper and had another awesome cat nap.

The Gen 7 Pets Sleeper comfort pad is machine washable and easy to remove from the carrier. The carry-me sleeper comes with a 12-month warranty. The airline has an interior tether, storage pockets, a soft fleece bed, and a shoulder strap. The Gen 7 Pets Carry-Me Sleeper is located in the USA. The Gen 7 Pets carrier has a large side screen area where your cat can look out quickly and has many screened places. The zippers are made wonderfully and work very smoothly. The carrier is ideal for transporting small dogs and other small animals. Your cat should feel relaxed in a Gen 7 Pets carrier when driving or on the way to the vet for shots or a checkup. At the vet’s office,e your cat can lay on the soft be, relax,x, and wait for the vet to come in. In a nice and cozy area, anyone feels more relaxed and at ease and is in a peaceful place and in a perfect frame of mind to make things less stressful and a positive experience. I love my Gen 7 Carry-Me Sleeper. The Gen 7 Pet carry-sleeper is the best-designed and thought-out carrier I have ever used or seen.

I hope you and your cat fondly remember your new Gen 7 Pets Carry-Me Sleeper from Chewy.Com.

How to Cage Your Cat and Cages for Transportation Travel

How to Cage Your Cat and Cages for Transporatation

I buy a cage according to my cat’s willingness to enter the cell. Some cats will put up a horrible fuss when you are trying to put them in a cage.

I have bought a cloth bag for transporting my cats. The cloth bags work fine for a well-behaved cat. My cat Sebastian figured out how to unzip the cloth bag. The zippers seem to wear out quickly on the cloth bags.

Cages with a small door work fine for cats that do not mind going in and out of cells. Temperamental cats will put their foot in the way of the door, and it is about impossible to get them out of the small door.

I have several homemade cages that work well. They are made out of plywood. The wooden cells have a lot of holes drilled in them for ventilation. They also have hinges and hooks for securing your cat during transportation.

My favorite cage is medium-sized. The pen has a large frontal opening. The pen also has a door on top of the cell. The door on the top is the entire length of the cell. It is straightforward to get cats in and out of this cage.

I put the pen up on the end for cats that do not like cages with the door wide open. I then pick my cat up by the nape of his neck, put the back legs in first, and close the cage door quickly. Sometimes I put some tuna in a cage, and he walks right in and eats his tuna. He will think that when I enter a pen, I will get a nice reward and be more accessible the next time you want to transport him.

When transporting my cats, I always line the cage with paper towels or newspapers. This will make cage clean-up easy when you return home with your cat.

Happy travels to you and your cat.

Catching a Cat

Catching a Cat

Catching a wild cat can be pretty challenging.

Over the years, I have caught several cats by using tuna or butter to see them. I put the butter on the end of my finger. The cat came and licked the butter off of my finger. I then grabbed the cat by the nape of his neck and put him in a secure box.

I use a fishing net with a long handle to catch wild farm cats. I put tuna in a bowl, and while they eat, I put the fish net over them. I knocked on a building they were in, and they then ran into the net. Flip the net to the side so the cat cannot escape. Have your cage on end to gently drop the cat in from your bounty. Always wear a thick pair of gloves if catching them by hand. A live animal trap with tuna in it works well.

“catch me if you can,” the cat would say if it could.
