My cat is about two years old, and I got her from a shelter one week ago. She is very pleasant, and seems to like me a lot. I took her to the vet, and she is fine.
But, she doesn't seem to be very active during the day, or really doesn't play with any toys. She seems content with sleeping most of the day and night, and is her most active when she wants attention. She lived in the shelter for a while it seems, and she has trouble jumping. Like I said, I took her to the vet for a checkup, and the vet said she was physically fine, but probably just got so used to sitting around the cage in the shelter all day that she doesn't realize that she can play and wander around my apartment.
She is a little bit more active, but is still not as active as I would like. I'll move toys and try to get her attention, which my old cats had always liked and reacted, but she kind of just looks at the toy and ignores it. How can I get her to be more cat like and play more often? She is not fat, but is a little chubby since she doesn't get enough exercise during the day.
