Here are some tips to ensure your guests know how to interact with your dog during the Holiday season.
Has your cat been diagnosed with Osteoarthritis? Do you want to learn some safe exercises to improve your cat’s mobility? Good reflex!
Regular physical activity will maintain his/her joint flexibility and prevent weight gain. Excess weight puts additional pressure on the joints, which might trigger osteoarthritis in your cat.
Here are a few tips so your kitty can stay in shape.
TIPS FOR GETTING YOUR CAT MOVING
Obviously, if your cat has joint pain, he/she will be less likely to move around.
To get him/her motivated...
- Use balls or set up games that dispense kibble at the same time. In this way, your cat will be able to play while eating more moderately, because he/she will have to work for his/her kibble! We especially like:
- Place his/her water bowl, food tray and litterbox in different rooms and on different floors if possible, in order to maximize the movements necessary for meeting basic needs.
- The indispensable laser! Simply point the beam on the wall or floor: your cat will play until he/she is exhausted. But be careful of changes of direction which are too sharp.
- Hide small toys so he/she has to “hunt” for them.
AND REMEMBER TO...
- Make sure your pet does not jump too high, which is bad for osteoarthritis.
- Consider Flexadin for your cat! Talk to your veterinary proefessional about this nutritional supplement.
