How to Celebrate Happy Cat Month
1. Priorities Regular Vet Checks
Schedule wellness exams, dental inspections, and preventative care to address health issues early.

2. Keep Fresh Water Available
Ensure your cat has continual access to clean water; consider adding a pet fountain to encourage hydration.

3. Enrich Their Environment
Provide scratching posts, perches, puzzle feeders, and speaking toys to support natural behaviors and mental stimulation.

4. Maintain Grooming Routines
Brush your cat regularly to reduce shedding and hairballs, and check their coat and skin for any abnormalities.

5. Create Comfortable Retreats
Offer cozy hideaways and elevated spots where your cat can rest undisturbed.

6. Promote Safe Outdoor Exploration
If appropriate, try gentle leash walks or supervised outdoor time using a secure harness.

7. Introduce New Toys and Scents
Prevent boredom by rotating toys regularly and adding new textures or scents in their play area.

8. Engage in Interactive Play Daily
Short, consistent play sessions—especially at dawn or dusk—help satisfy hunting instincts and deepen your bond (use wand toys and prey-style rhythms)

🌟 Pet of the Month: Rosita 🌟
Rosita loves being honored—after all, she’s a Princess at heart!

👑 Pet’s Name: Rosita 💞 Pet Parent: Gretchen

🏞 Favorite Activities Together: Rosita and Gretchen adore running and playing in the park or along the beach. While swimming isn’t her thing, Rosita happily fetches sticks from the riverbank, staying close to shore.

🦴 Favorite Toy: She’s not much of a toy fan, but give her a chewy bone and she’s in heaven.

🍗 Favorite Treats: Chewy bones wrapped in dried chicken and crunchy pig ears are her ultimate delights.

🛏 Favorite Place to Sleep: Snuggled under the covers, right between her pet parents, where she feels most at home.

💪 Special Talent: Rosita is impressively strong—especially when it comes to tug of war!

😸 Quirky Behavior: Rosita is a quiet soul who rarely barks. Every few months, she might surprise you with a little bark—usually when she’s eyeing something tasty from your dinner plate. She’s more like a kitty cat in her calm silence.

🌎 Her Story: Before finding her forever family, Rosita spent about two years as a street dog in Mexico. Now, she’s living her royal life, showered with love and comfort.

For those of you who have put up a Christmas tree, does your cat bother with the branches or chew on them? In most cases, spraying with a bitter anti-chew spray helps. For those hardcore chewers though, it's often safer to locate the tree in a room that the cat can't access when you aren't around to supervise.

Have you had to come up with some creative ideas to keep your cat away from the tree?
