Did you know that dwarf and teacup or miniature pets aren’t actually the same thing? There’s a large difference in definition rather than just defining the pet as small and cute. It is common with most types of animals that have been domestically bred, specifically with pet animals such as dogs and cats. But between the two, if you prefer small animals regardless of being miniature and small, cats are literally cuter, smaller and adorable compared to dogs. Considering their natural size, they are much more adored and people show larger interest when it comes to dwarf, teacup or miniaturize cat ..read more

Why Do Cats Kick Their Back Legs?

If you watch your cat play with a soft toy they will typically grab it with their front paws, roll on their back and kick it with their back legs.  Sometimes they will do the same thing to you when you try to pat or scratch your kitty. Your cat will hold on to your hand, forearm or shin and kick at you with their hind legs. This behavior has two meanings. It is a fight response and a play response.  When cats wrestle with each other they tend to display this behavior.  When your cat is in the mood to play and you reach to pat her she may grab you hand and kick it with her back l ..read more

Why Does Litter Go Flying When Your Cat Uses The Litter Box?
Crazy Cat Lady Magazine
by Crazy Cat Lady Mar
2y ago
It is not uncommon for your cat to toss litter out of the litter box when they use it.  Elimination behavior is fairly standard throughout the feline world.  When a cat first enters the litter box they dig a small hole and defecate in that hole.  The fun begins when they try to cover or bury the evidence.  Cats can get over enthusiastic covering up what they have left behind.  As a result, if you have provided your cat with a small shallow box, litter can rain like confetti over the area around the box. Your cat’s ancestors and cats that live in the wild cover their de ..read more

Why Do Cats Like Boxes?
Crazy Cat Lady Magazine

Why do cats like boxes?  It is not so much that cats like boxes but they prefer small places to curl up.  This is an instinctual behavior.  While cats are very good hunters in the wild they are also hunted by larger predators.  Eagles, hawks, owls, wolves, foxes and coyotes have all been known to prey upon cats.   A cat that is curled up in a small area like a box is not only hiding but is protecting their underbelly from attack.  In addition, by sleeping curled up, a cat already has his legs under him so it is easier to spring into action for fight or flight. &nb ..read more

When you hear your cat snore it typically means there is some kind of obstruction in their airway.  It can be due to the position they chose to lay in, or it can be the result of a barrier preventing the easy movement of air through the nose and throat.  If it is due to the position of the cat then it is not an issue.  However, in some instances it can be caused by medical issues.   Cats with flat faces, called brachycephalic, do have a tendency to have respiratory issues.  Persians and Himalayans, for example, may have narrow nostrils or elongated soft palates when co ..read more

Bringing a new cat into a single or multi-cat household can have varying results.  Your old cats may simply just avoid the new cat.  Or there may be some direct interaction ranging from hissing and arching to all-out attack.  These reactions may not be a result of hate or fear.   Domestic cats who are now feral (live in the wild), tend to band together in a large group.  The cats within this group do help each other.  If a large unknown male cat tries to get close to the group it will be attacked by group members to protect their kittens.  Outside males are k ..read more

It is a myth that cats do not like water.  While it is true most do not like water, some tolerate it and others love to drown themselves in it. There are cats who like to play in their water bowl and others who will dunk their heads under a water faucet when it is turned on.  There are even some cats that will jump in the pool or lake and go for a swim.   Some breeds of cats actually like water.  The Maine Coon, Bengal and Turkish Van all seem to have an affinity for the wet stuff.
