Cat Parenting 101

Strike a balance between rest and play

Cats are predators who sleep roughly 15 hours a day to conserve their energy for hunting, even if they’re just hunting dust bunnies. They’re also wired to play — it satisfies their hunting instincts, boosts their mood, and helps them develop their problem-solving skills.

For rest time:

  • Make sure your cat kid has safe and cozy spots to sleep, whether it’s atop a cat tree or sprawled across a cat bed near a sunny window.

For playtime:

  • Set aside time every day to play with interactive toys like stuffed mice or DIY toys such as sweatshirt strings.

Treat them to some human foods (and steer clear of others)

Want to give your cat kid a boost in vitamins and minerals? Let them try:

  • Veggies like steamed broccoli and plain carrots
  • Fruit including banana slices and the occasional washed blueberry

Avoid:

  • Chocolate and grapes
  • Onions and garlic
  • Peanut butter (some artificial ingredients may be harmful)

Switch to an eco-friendly litter

Your cat kids deserve the best. One of the ways to deliver on your cat parent promise: fill their litter boxes with bentonite or kuick klump litter which have high water absorption and clumps quickly better than clay litter, corn litter, wheat litter, pine litter, and paper litter. It’s soft on paws, non-toxic, and free of silica dust, so it’ll help everyone breathe easier. And it’s sustainably made, making it as good for the planet as it is for your cat kid.
