Keeping Cats 101 | All You Need To Know

Who can resist the charm and affection of a purring cat? Cats can be incredibly relaxing and will be more than happy to offer a chin to tickle when you’re relaxing on the sofa. In fact, animal behaviour experts believe cats are able to sense our mood and many cat owners claim their cats often try to cheer them up if they are feeling down. Cats are very independent creatures with a mind of their own. They sleep around 14 hours a day, and are most active around dusk and dawn. They don’t need your undivided attention, but there are a few things to think about before you decide if a cat is the right pet for you.
