<H1>Feeding and Training a Cat </H1>

Semi-moist foods are usually less expensive because they contain
some vegetable protein and are usually supplemented with
nutrients to make them nutritionally complete, especially for
growing kittens.

Dry foods contain about 10 percent water and less fat and
protein then semi-moist foods. Cats on dry diets should have
plenty of water available. Some cats on dry diets may develop
bladder problems. Milk, water, or gravy can be mixed with the
food to improve palatability and to ensure that the cat gets
adequate water intake. One may wish to feed canned foods
occasionally to help prevent bladder problems, get the cat used
to different types and textures of foods, and ensure tat the cat
gets a balanced diet. Dry foods do have the advantage of helping
to clean the teeth and prevent the buildup tartar.

The amount of food one gives depends on the cat's age, weight,
breed, condition, and amount of activity it gets. Cats and young
kittens will not consume enough food in one meal to last 24
hours. Two meals are recommended and young kittens and females
that are pregnant or nursing require more frequent feedings.

Cats should never be given a diet of dog food because it
contains large amounts of cereals and vegetables. Because of
this, the cat may not get enough animal protein. Dog food also
lacks necessary amounts of vitamins A and B and some essential
fatty acids. Many times cats will be seen eating grass. The
exact reason for and of
contacting diseases and parasites. Cats living in indoors should
have clean litter box and plenty of water. Owners should be
aware of plants that are poisonous to their pets and other
dangers if the cat is left alone for long periods of time. To
protect the furniture, cats should be trained to use a
scratching post. 	 Cats scratch to sharpen their claws, to
remove loose scales and fragments of dry skin, and to leave a
mark for other cats. Kittens should be trained to use a
scratching post as soon as they are weaned. The kitten should be
held by the scratching post and its claws placed on the post.
The kitten will soon learn what to do and will usually come to
the same post a cloth covered post may offer the cat an
alternative to clawing on soft furniture and draperies.

Correct toilet training is easier with cats than with dogs
because cats naturally cover their urine and feces. If a mother
cat does a good job of raising her litter, she will probably
train them to use a litter box. If a kitten does not know what
the litter box if for, can train it easily. Holding it front
paws, the owner should show it how to scratch the litter
material. Every time the kitten appears to be looking for a
place to urinate or defecate, it should be placed in the litter
box.

Urine spraying is a natural part of a cat's behavior. The male
cat will spray walls and furniture to mark its territory. If one
can catch the cat in act spray it with a water pistol. Another
alterative to try is to hang aluminum foil around the spraying
areas. Also, one can try feeding the cat in the target areas,
because cats will usually not spray near feeding areas.

Some cats can be trained to sit, beg, jump, through hoops, and
do other tricks. Training should be similar periods, firm verbal
commands, and instant rewards. Whether a cat learns any tricks
depends on its intelligence and whether it wants to oblige. In
any case, training should not be forced on a cat that does not
appear interested.

It is estimated that a cat can kill up to one hundred birds each year. Millions of birds are killed by pets and feral cats
as are tens of millions of rodents and other small animals. Cats are not a natural part of the ecosystem. They were introduced to North America in large numbers in the 1800's. Unlike other predators, cats are fed and inoculated against disease, and are not reliant on their hunting skills for survival. In addition to killing birds through hunting, cats can transmit diseases, which kill wildlife.

Feral, or wild cats are descended from domesticated pets
When cats are lost or abandoned, they return to a more primitive wild state, know as feral. Although feral cats may live alone, often they join large groups or colonies of other wild cats. Their lives are hard, and their life expectancies are much lower than their domesticated kin

The two most obvious reasons a cat may no longer want its food, is firstly has the food gone bad. Sometimes cat food can become tainted in its packaging,
check to see if the can has any dents in it or if there is damage to the packaging in any way. Smell the food your self and see if there are any unusual odours or any mould on the food. Secondly, is the cat ill in any way? Sometimes bad teeth can cause problems or they have a stomach bug. A vet should check out any suspicions of illness immediately.

Even though felines tend to be very healthy for the duration of their lives, they do have some common cat ailments.
For the most part, a healthy diet and careful grooming will alleviate and even prevent many common cat ailments. If your cat changes its behavior or schedule of activities, a checkup with a veterinarian is highly recommended. While the turnout may be one or more common cat ailments, it never hurts to be on the safe side.

Petition For Senator Obama: Add a Shelter Cat to Your Family!

Dear Senator Obama,
When the Humane Society Legislative Fund announced their first ever Presidential endorsement of you, we were delighted to hear about all of your past legislative support for animal welfare. We applaud every politician who recognizes the needs of those without a voice or vote.

We also appreciate that your family has decided to adopt a dog from a shelter. We ask that you extend the same warmth and kindness to a cat. 70 percent of adoptable cats in shelters are euthanized every year. Adoption makes a tremendous difference towards the life of one cat, as well as to the family who adopts.

The United States is a pet-loving nation, and the American people would love to see an influential public figure such as yourself save the life of a pet. Please consider adding a shelter cat to your loving family.

Cats and Milk--Watch Out for Lactose Intolerance

Though often associated together in artwork and folklore, in real life, cats and milk should be mixed with caution. Cats are born with high levels of lactulase, an enzyme that breaks down the sugar in the milk during nursing. As kittens age, the level of lactulase drops and the ability to tolerate the sugar found in milk (lactulose) decreases. So a previously lactose-tolerant kitten becomes a lactose-intolerant adult. Most adult cats have this low tolerance for milk sugars so giving them milk or other dairy products can make them gassy and cause diarrhea. It can also spark pancreatitis in sensitive individuals.

Some veterinarians have put the stool softening property of lactulose intolerance to work--using it to treat constipation. Contact your vet before you decide to put this to work yourselves--a little goes a long way and your vet can recommend if it is appropriate for your cat.

Of course, cats meow. And the type of meow they use gives you a good idea of what they're trying to communicate with you. This is especially true if your pet is a Siamese cat. This type of cat is very vocal. One Siamese owner had a cat that meowed loudly - and persistently - whenever it wanted to play a game of hide and seek. Every time the cat used his "special meow", which the owner recognized, she knew that he was "hiding" and needed to be "found." She dutifully played.
