👀 That's right, most cats are ambidextrous, meaning they are able to use the right and left paws equally well.
However, 40 per cent are either left- or right-pawed. 😱

💬 "Cats are naturally a very curious species. Give them the opportunity, and they'll surely skip right over the backyard fence and off to explore the world around them.
This is the reason why many purr-parents want to cat-proof their yard. There are so many positive reasons to keep pet cats contained in their yard."

😼 Giving cow’s milk to your cat can lead to diarrhea and stomach pain, which is unpleasant for your cat and you, and may even lead to a veterinarian visit!
Cow’s milk is especially dangerous for kittens, especially skim and other low-fat content kinds of milk, because it does not contain the nutrients that kittens need to thrive. 🐄
As adult cats, kittens are unable to properly digest cow’s milk, leading to diarrhea and dehydration, which can be deadly. 😱

😸 Cats' natural diet almost exclusively consists of animal protein sources.
🥑 Plant proteins and vegan or vegetarian diets do not meet all the nutritional needs of your cat!
It’s the same concept as vegans requiring B vitamin supplementation because some B vitamins are only available in animal protein sources. Except, for your cat, this supplementation isn't something you can pick up at the local pet shop. 🤷

📣 Oscillot® was invented by South Australian filmmaker, Paul Bok, in 2006. Paul noticed an obvious lack of options for cat owners to keep their beloved feline friends safe at home!
The only options on the market at the time appeared to be either cages or netting and let's face it, who wants to turn their yard into a prison. 🙅
After extensive research & development, Oscillot® was born, right here in Australia! 📍

😅 If you thought cats spent a lot of their lives sleeping, you’d be right.
According to Veterinary Hub, Cats actually spend 70% of their lives sleeping, which works out to around 13-16 hours a day.
It’s a cat’s life! 🥰

😼 Cats can be pretty low maintenance, but they still require daily attention!
Your cat’s litter box should be attended to daily, food and water should be refreshed, and routine vet visits should be performed.
All of that doesn't include daily playtime, grooming, bonding, and the additional care that sick or elderly cats may require. 💡

💡 Balcony balustrades/fences generally are not suitable because the minimum recommended fence height for installation of Oscillot® is 1.80 metres.
Balcony balustrades are generally between 1.2 metres and 1.5 metres, which is too low and Oscillot® will likely not be effective when installed at such a height. 🚫
The risk is heightened when installing Oscillot® against our recommendations in an apartment or unit that is several stories off the ground, because the cat may jump up, causing the paddles to spin, the cat will become off-balance and the Paddles roll may cause the cat to fall out of the balcony, rather than back in, resulting in a long fall to the ground.

👀 While cats are exceptionally agile and acrobatic animals, they do not always land on their feet!
Like any other animal, cats can be injured by falls, especially those from high heights. 🤕
If you have a two-story home or a balcony, take precautions to prevent your cat from making risky moves that could result in a long fall. 🚫

👀 All true lilacs are safe for cats.
But, there's a dangerous imposter that goes by the name Persian lilac. Luckily, this havoc-causing plant isn't even related to lilacs, making it easier to identify and keep out of your curious feline's mouth. 😱

😼 A cat hairball is exactly what it sounds like: Hair that clumps together inside a cat’s digestive system. A cat’s fur contains an indigestible protein (keratin). According to the Cornell Feline Health Center, when a cat swallows hair it usually travels through its digestive system and gets passed out through its stool. Sometimes, however, hair accumulates in the stomach and lumps together. To get rid of it, your cat will usually throw it up. 🤮 😱 If a large hairball ends up blocking the openings of the stomach—at the esophagus or the intestine—or gets stuck in the digestive tract, it’s an emergency. #Oscillot #CatLovers #CrazyCats #LoveCats #CatOwner #OldestCatEver #Hairball
😸 Cats spend countless hours licking their fur clean and using their paws to groom the tops of their heads and faces (so cute!). But one place they can't reach is inside their ears. Some cats' ears naturally stay clean, while others have ears that tend to get a little gunky. If your kitty's ears become dirty, your cat needs a little help with sweeping the debris out. A veterinary professional can do it or you can learn how to clean your cat's ears at home. 🤩 #Oscillot #CatLovers #CrazyCats #ContainedCats #CatOwner #SleepyCats
👀 Cat dandruff is especially common in overweight and older cats. 🙋♀️ It’s normal for both skin cells and hair to shed at the end of their growth cycle. But if dead skin cells build up—because of lack of grooming or because some cats are prone to it—they become visible and you'll see white flakes on your kitty. #Oscillot #CatLovers #CatSenses #HeightenedSenses #CatOwner #SensitiveCats #CatDandruff #CatFacts
🧐 Shedding is a normal, natural event in a cat's life—irrespective of hair length—because the feline fur growth cycle allows each hair to grow, rest, die and then fall out. And yes, there is cat shedding season. Cat shedding is largely influenced by the number of hours a cat is exposed to sunlight in a day, also known as a photoperiod. Felines who live indoors, especially when they're in homes with both heat and air-conditioning, can be in a constant state of shedding because their biological system becomes confused by temperature controls. 🌡️ 🌞 Cats are efficient self-groomers, but they need human help removing loose fur—the more the better. When cats groom themselves, they ingest loose hairs, which causes hairballs. These, in turn, can lead to a dangerous intestinal blockage. In addition, excess dead hair forms knotted clumps and huge mats. #Oscillot #CatLovers #CrazyCats #LoveCats #CatOwner #CatFacts #CatShedding

Cats are natural hunters and whether it's prey from outside or attacking their favourite toy, they use the hairs on the back of their front legs to hunt. 🙆 👉 This is because they cannot see very well up close, and thanks to these whiskers they feel and foresee the movement of their prey. Have you seen those whiskers on their front legs? 👀 #Oscillot #CatFacts #CatsDidYouKnow #CatWhiskers #CatsHabits #CatsPlaying

👀 The oldest cat to have ever lived was 38 years and 3 days old when he passed away!

Cats and many other animals are more sensitive than humans to sounds, smells and, changes in atmospheric pressure, and their heightened senses can allow them to pick up hints that a storm is coming well before their owners catch wind of it. ☁ ☔ Just before a storm, your cat’s inner ears may detect the sudden fall in atmospheric pressure, and she may have learned to associate this with an impending storm. #Oscillot #CatLovers #CatSenses #HeightenedSenses #CatOwner #SensitiveCats

If you’ve watched your little kitty charging around the living room when they’re feeling lively you know that cats are pretty quick, but you won’t believe this cat fact. ✨ 📣 They can hit speeds of around 30mph which is so fast that they could beat Usain Bolt in a 200-metre dash! #Oscillot #CatLovers #CrazyCats #LoveCats #CatOwner #FastCat
