Cats are fussy eaters so it can be hard to provide them with the right meals and satisfaction. Here are some
tips... |
|
 |
 |
|
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.
