How To Keep Your Cat Happy When He’s Home Alone.

Posted by Jane

Many of us work full time.  And who doesn’t, when life is getting so expensive?

However, the result is that there are hundreds of thousands of solitary pet cats who find themselves left Home Alone between the hours of 8am and 6pm.

 Now I know that most cats sleep for a large chunk of the day - but what happens where they wake and don’t find you there? As owners, we need to be as aware of our pet’s mental health as we are of their physical well-being and a bored cat can quickly develop behavioral problems. Problems such as scratching and chewing your prized possessions and furniture, overturning bins in a search for something tasty to eat, soiling outside their litter tray or even in extreme cases, self-harming by pulling their fur out in clumps or by grooming excessively to the point of soreness and infection.

 So here are a few tips for making sure that your pampered pet remains happy:

  • An acceptable scratching post - one that your cat will actually be happy using!
  • Food - use an automatic feeder, leave dried food available or ‘hide’ titbits around the house for him to discover.
  • Buy an activity center or a cat tree. Again, hide treats inside from time to time to keep him interested.
  • Be imaginative in the toys you buy him. Bouncy ones, dangly ones, ones with noises, furry, feathery, rolling ones.

And once you return home, remember that your cat will be pleased to see you and not just for your can-opening skills - so be sure to make a fuss of him.  Spend quality time together watching your favorite TV show.

 After all, there’s really nothing better than settling down to relax with your warm, furry and loving companion, is there?

    Luckily my cats do not get left for too long. They are happy to snooze the day away being somewhat elderly now.

    However….when they were kittens I inadvertently shut them in the bedroom. They have never forgot or forgiven me! even though I never shut any of my doors they have scratched apart every single carpet leading to every single room. They have even started in the middle of the stairs and the lounge.

    They never do it unless my back is turned and even though I have been yelling at them to stop for the last 13 years they cannot see it is wrong.

    This begs the question if it is a good idea to give cats scratching posts! I have 2 for mine. Scratching posts are made of……carpet…..so I guess it stands to reason that a cat will not think they are doing anything wrong by scratching (and destroying) the rest of your carpets!

    Don’t you just love them!!!

  2. Bonnie Said,

    You could say I am absolutely bonkers about my cats. Even my email address is named in their honour!

    As a cat lover I was so pleased to stumble upon this cat owners confidential blog. It is brilliant!

    I am hoping more people will leave comments as I have bookmarked this site to see what other owners say about their cats and will look forward to coming back to it regularly.

    Don’t forget to sign up for the newsletter, a most for all cat lovers

    PLEASE HELP!

    My friend and family member, Rocky, has been in emergency care for renal failure for 5 days. Our Veterinarian prescribed Metacam oral solution for pain. This drug is NOT FOR USE IN CATS!
    If your Veterinarian prescribes Metacam for your cat advise them that you will not accept the risk. Tell them to stop using the drug for cats! The use of Metacam oral solution in cats is prohibitive by the FDA and the product manufacturer. There is no safe amount of this drug for use in cats! NONE!
    According to the manufacturer’s product sheet, (http://www.bi-vetmedica.com/product_sites/METACAMORAL/documents/Metacam_Oral_Susp_rp.pdf) Metacam is not for use in cats and has a narrow margin of safety (also known as therapeutic index) in cats, meaning that there is very little difference between a safe, effective dose and a toxic dose. Repeated doses of Metacam Oral in cats have been known to result in death, as documented in the clinical tests submitted to the FDA.
    Veterinarians often may administer a drug in a dose or frequency different from the manufacturers’ instructions. This practice is termed, “off label use”. While off label use may be practiced in veterinary medicine, prescribing a drug directly against the label directions is not off label use. It is malpractice.
    The use of Metacam in cats will harm them. There is no dispute!
    Please help get the word out to all cat owners, pet owners, Veterinarians.
