Hello,
I am new to the forum. I just put down my 10 year old long haired Tortie - I still have a medium length hair male orange tabby. I am looking to rescue another female long haired kitty.
I have joined because I want to be a better cat owner. I own dogs as well, and am very active with them and their health. With the passing of my kitty, I want to make sure my next kitty and my current kitty's lives are as rewarding as my dogs.
So, I kinda need the run down. - Right now they have a set up on the lower level with three levels of beds, toys, food, water etc. that are away from my dogs. I would like to know how to improve this, whats the best way to feed, whats the best food, and the best toys. I am an excellent dog owner and a terrible cat owner. Help me learn fast what I've been doing wrong. I have started researching and I am over whelmed, so some pointers could help.
Here's what i know:
I need a cat tree and a some window spots for them to sit upstairs.
I shouln't free feed anymore
I think I'm to to TOTW mixed with wet food.
What I want to know:
What else should I do
What are the best toys
What supplements should I give to prevent cancers, utis, etc.
Thanks for any pointers
Also, Mods, i couldn't find the intro section, please move this if need be. Thanks!
