Inside Cat or Outside Cat?



Some people have a hard time deciding whether or not to let their cats outside. Keeping your cat inside can definitely prolong their life as it keeps them out of some sticky situations. There are so many things to take into consideration before letting your cat outside for the first time such as will they run away? Will they get into something that can be harmful or deadly? Will they get hit by a car? Will they get bullied or into a fight with another cat? All of these things can happen and that is the chance you take when letting them out into the world.

You can surely save on a vet bill by keeping them indoors. This is also a great way of flea prevention and you won't be finding any dead birds on your door step either. Some people believe that keeping your cat indoors at all times is cruel and that you are stripping them of their freedom. Many people like to familiarize them with the outdoors as a kitten so if they do get out, they know how to get back... it's not a bad idea. A couple options for those of you who are unsure of what to do you can let your cat out while supervised by you in the yard or you can teach them to walk on a leash. It may seem strange, but it's done.

So what it comes down to is that indoor cats live healthier and longer lives. Since they are inside all the time they do need lots of toys and playtime to keep them sane and in good shape.

Flea Prevention



The Siamese cat breed doesn't require heavy grooming. It is a good idea to get them used to some kind of grooming routine as a young kittens. There are so many different types of flea prevention for animals these days so there is no reason why your pet should have a flea infestation.

If your cat is constantly itching that's a good sign that they have a flea problem. You need to take action right away so it doesn't cause a problem for you whole family. The fleas can be in your carpet or on your furniture so it's very important to treat the home as well as your pet or a re-infestation could occur. If this is not handled properly, your cats may take on more severe health problems.

Some people have found that adding garlic and brewers yeast to your cats food may help with flea prevention. Cats that have these supplements in them may be less desirable to the flea itself. Spot treatments, baths and flea bombs are a great way to go. After you get rid of the infestation of fleas, be sure to use a preventative treatment monthly whether it be a collar or a spot treatment so they don't keep coming back for more.
