What Did Your Cat Do Today? Five Tips for a Happier Feline

By: LISA RADOSTA, DVM, DACVB

  1. RELEASE YOUR CAT’S INNER TIGER

Toys that move like the  Da Bird help to stimulate your cat’s predatory response. Other predatory toys include Ba -Da-Beem Rotating Laser Cat Toy, Frolicat laser toy, Feline Frolic, Da Bird, Smart Kitty toys, and Kong Kickeroo.

 

  1. MAKE IT NEW

Rotate your cat’s toys so that each day your cat has something new and fabulous to explore. A good general rule is to give your cats 3 new toys per day per cat. That’s right…3 cats = 9 toys per day!

 

  1. TURN ON THE TV.

Some cats love to watch television and play video games just like your human kids. Turn on an animal television show or download a video game made for your cat. Make sure to purchase a protective case for your iPad!

 

  1. GIVE YOUR CAT A JOB

Teach your cat to work for her food by using food toys to stimulate her. Some food toys examples include: Delidome, Sense IT line of cat toys, Kitty Kong and Pipolino.

 

 

  1. YOU DON’T HAVE TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY.

Cats don’t care how much you paid for a toy. They are just as happy with a ball of paper or a cardboard box. Add some catnip and let the fun begin!

Every once in a while, a veterinary unicorn comes along: competent, confident, compassionate, and a great communicator. Brimming with science and soul. Dr. Lisa Radosta is a true "Jill of all trades," fighting important battles and inspiring future leaders. She has played a big role in making animal behavior important, elevating females in our profession, and showing action steps to make a balance between work and home doable.

Dr. Radosta is exceedingly passionate about each individual animal and understands by helping a pet she is also helping families; her passion is only exceeded by her knowledge to make a difference. Dr. Radosta is also a master communicator, whether it is explaining behavior modification to families desperate for exactly what Dr. Radosta and her team provide to communicating to professional colleagues at veterinary meetings.

Every single day Dr. Radosta is making the world a better place for dogs and cats suffering from fear, stress, and anxiety. She's highly regarded by veterinarians and board-certified behaviorists alike and I am honored to have worked alongside her to educate pet parents about the importance of caring for our pet's mental health -- she's my "go-to" for video or blog interviews on behavior topics. I've also been a client of Dr. Radosta's behavior practice and I credit her with opening my eyes back in 2006 to how FAS affects our pets' quality of life.
