CATS - GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAT

During the first phase of cat ownership, it is so important to just get ot know your cat. Since the next step is developing that relationship, you’re going to want to make sure that you have the necessary time to devote to your cat now so you can begin to learn the things the cat likes, and the things the cat does not like.

What you are going to want to do is first take a look at the things that may scare the cat, or things the cat may not like. Be aware of people or objects the cat may be a little afraid of.

At the same time, try to begin to expose your cat to as many positive things as possible too. My suggestion is to get a variety of toys, and a variety of cat treats. Just give your cat a choice to see the things he likes, and this might take some time.

This period of time is really all about learning, and understanding the animal. Once you have a good grasp of the things the cat likes or does not like, you can then move to the nest phase which is DEVELOPING A RELATIONSHIP.
