MAKING YOUR HOME CAT SAFE

Here are some suggestions for cat-proofing your home:

  • Electrics cord: chewing on electrical cords can result in burns and electric shock. To prevent this, tuck electrical and telephone cords out of reach under mats or carpets, tack or tape them down, or cover them with PVC piping;
  • Drapery cords: keep window and drapery cords tied up and well out of the reach, as a frolicking feline can become entangled in dangling cords and accidentally hang or strangle itself;
  • Flimsy screening: make sure all window and door screens are strong, sturdy, and secure enough to prevent a cat from pushing them out or falling trough them;
  • Cosmetics and Medicines: Keep perfumes, cosmetics, medicines tightly capped and put away;
  • Houseplants: many plants are harmless to cats, others are deadly. Ingestion can cause a range of symptoms, including mouth irritation, drooling, vomiting, diarrhea, convulsions, lethargy and coma.


RAGDOLLS and CHILDREN

Children find kittens irresistible, but they have to be taught how to handle them properly. Teach your child that pets are not animated toys, and supervise all physical contact between small children and pets. Explain to your child that loud screams and sudden movements may frighten the cat. Show your child where cats like to be stroked most under the chin, behind the ears, and on the neck and back.

Teach your child how to properly pick up and hold a cat. The proper way to pick up a cat is to put one hand under the chest behind the forelegs and the other hand under the rump to support the rear legs and body. Cradle the cat in your arms against your chest.
