Cats are wonderful pets. They're not as noisy as dogs and can curl up in your lap to help you unwind after a long day. If you're considering of having a cat, there are a few things you should know before making your decision.

1. This Is a Lifetime Commitment. Cats have a lifespan of up to 20 years. Please keep in mind that if you get a small tabby, you will be entering into a long-term relationship.

2. Leave The Claws On. Declawing a cat removes its first line of protection and is a painful procedure for the small feline. Clipping the nails on a regular basis is a preferable option.

3. You Need a Scratching Post. Scratching aids in the maintenance of a cat's paws. The post should be rather tall, and a sprinkling of catnip on it will encourage the cat to utilise it.

4. Have a Room for The Cat. This doesn’t mean having a room with a lock on it, but rather a place where few people go in so your cat can use it just to get away from it all.

5. A Litter Box Is Important. This is where your cat is going to do its business. It should be in one specified area of the house and not moved. You have to clean out the litter box on a routine basis.

6. Set Up a Feeding Schedule. This should be done with any pet so that they are aware of a regular feeding schedule. Also, follow your veterinarian's recommendations for the type of cat food to feed your pet. There are some foods that are hazardous to your pet's health. Grapes and raisins include substances that a cat's digestive system is unable to process. In this case, a visit to the veterinarian could save your cat from becoming dangerously ill.

7. Groom Your Cat on a Regular Basis.Cats are quite meticulous and will spend a significant amount of time grooming themselves. Brushing your cat will remove extra hair and minimise shedding on your furnishings. It also means that there are fewer cases of your cat coughing of hairballs.

8. Keep Your Cat Indoors As Much As Possible. The old idea of leaving your cat outside all night is no longer practical. It is not just a breeding invitation, but also an extremely perilous situation for the animal. Outside, cats can pick up a variety of parasites and diseases. In addition, the cat may be attacked by larger creatures.

9. Establish a Routine of Trips to the Vet. You want to keep your cat healthy, and one of the best ways to do so is to discover problems early on. Getting your cat checked up at least once a year is a smart method to keep them healthy.
