When washing up your cats bowls and/or any utensils that will be in contact the the cats food, use a safe washing up liquid like fairy or persil. Never use disinfectant as this can contain chemicals not suitable for cats. You can buy special pet disinfectant from most pet shops.

You can buy Automatic cat feeders from pet shops. They are very useful if you are going away on a short break. They keep food in sealed compartments that open at a pre-set time.

Set a regular time for your cat to eat at. A quiet spot in the kitchen provides the best environment. Put a mat underneath the bowl to keep the floor clean. Provide fresh food every day and fresh water twice a day to keep your cat healthy.
