THIS!!!! 👇🏻

If your cat is displaying a behavior that is unwanted, identify the underlying cause. Is the behavior due to an undiagnosed medical issue? Is the cat trying to communicate something is wrong? Is the cat doing the best he can under the circumstances in the current environment? Is it a natural, instinctive behavior being displayed in an unwanted way because you haven’t met the cat’s needs? Here are a couple of examples. A cat who eliminates outside of the litter box isn’t being stupid or spiteful. Maybe the cat has a medical issue and is in pain or perhaps associates the pain with the box itself. Another reason for litter box avoidance is that the box conditions may not be tolerable, or perhaps the cat is being ambushed by another cat when in the box. If furniture scratching is the concern keep in mind that scratching is a natural, and very beneficial aspect of cat health. If the sofa is the target, it may mean you don’t have a scratching post or perhaps it’s not one that meets the cat’s needs. Look at behavior being displayed from the cat’s point of view. There’s always a reason for the behavior. Your job is to figure out what your cat is getting from it so you can provide a better option. In other words: think like a cat!

We at Top Notch would like to send out our heartfelt thoughts and prayers to Joe and John Friend. They operate Friend’s Stockyard in Accident, Maryland, and had a tragic fire last night that destroyed the entire livestock barn. Joe and John are great friends and clients, and even better men. They are very hard workers and have lost something they have worked their whole life for. Please keep them in your prayers, and God willing, we hope to see Friend’s Stockyard back up and running again!! ❤️🐾🙏🤞😞

The size of the pouch can be small or it can be large enough that it swings when the cat walks. There's a difference between the primordial pouch and simply a fat belly. If you aren't sure whether your cat is overweight, talk with your veterinarian.
