Lazy Kittens Will Benefit From An Indoor Cat Exerciser

By Jerry Olson


Having a pet is great but a lot of new owners tend to underestimate the maintenance. Unlike a child, it can be tricky because animals cannot tell humans directly what it is they want. Although some experts have come up with ways to read body language, this is rather general information. However, one thing that is easy to notice is when pets get restless. When space is limited, having something like an indoor cat exerciser is ideal.

If one can imagine relaxing at home, either in bed or on the couch, with their dog or cat nearby. This sounds like a scene from a television ad for pet food or a vacation at home. While it can be an ideal way to spend quality time leisurely, it should not be a habit.

Most dogs benefit greatly from a stroll around the block at least once a day. It gives their owner an opportunity to socialize with neighbors and get in a little fitness time. However, this may not be the same for cat owners, as most like to stay in one place for hours or move around independently.

Besides serving food intended for weight loss, owners need to encourage activity that is not destructive to the household. When humans do not feel good about themselves, they can get caught off into negative behavior. If they suddenly start knocking things over or tearing things, a change in activity may just be the answer.

If it is possible to put up sturdy wall shelving near the ceiling, this is one affordable option that will keep them busy. It may also work for birds that like to fly around a room. Mounting a cat tree to the floor without damage is another possibility but it may be best to consult the manager or property owner if something is likely to penetrate the floor.

Also similar to human traits, some animals get a charge from being able to control others. While some cats or dogs may not eat the food given to them, if the aroma piques their interest they will down it in a matter of seconds. In the meantime, an owner may overlook the fact that their animal is not as active as they once were or getting thick in the waistline.

Having a cat that is restless can be quite the challenge. Sometimes even simply play with toys can stimulate them into hyperactivity and when in this state, owners may find themselves mentally and physically exhausted. This does not always mean that they do not care but often, they find that the same activities that calmed the cat previously do not work. Some owners spend hours after a long day trying to appease and hoping their precious valuables do not suffer any damage.

When animals are happy, their owners should be also. Engaging in healthy activities and staying hydrated are good ways to keep most chronic ailments at bay. If a person has a hard time staying on a workout regime, maybe including the cat or dog will be an inspiration to do better.
