The domestic cat has evolved from a solitary hunter into a highly social animal.
In spite of its reputation as aloof and independent, the modern domestic cat needs appropriate mental and physical stimulation to stay happy and fit.
Indoor cats need daily interactive play, affection and new challenges. Boredom is often the root cause of aggression, depression and other behavioral disorders.
When your cat is getting the stimulation it needs along with a healthy diet, it will be more relaxed, affectionate and an overall better companion for you.
A domestic cat "plays" instead of hunting as their ancestors had to do to survive.
Playing provides stimulation to keep a cat mentally alert and healthy.
"Playing" and "Mischief Making" are much related – the more time a human spends playing with the cat,
the less a cat will need to get into mischief. If you are a cat's human, be sure to play with your cat daily. |
