Should your pet cat have a particularly preferred toy, then you do not have a reason to throw it out as she ages. With your elderly pet lying on her side, she can try grabbing onto larger toys while she kicks using her back legs. Playing this way is enjoyed by lots of cats and can become an ideal stretching activity for your pet’s rear extremities. Try using a cylindrical or rectangular toy that is around 15 to 20 cm ( 6 to 8 inches) in length and constructed from durable fabric like toweling or drill cotton as your pet’s kick toy.
Cardboard boxes have become perennial favorites of pet cats. But if your pet is advancing in years, some modifications might be necessary. An older cat might still like to poke around and investigate but is not flexible or mobile enough to move around and jump. Try tipping the box over to its side and rotating it so that its opening faces your cat. This lets her enter the box to check it out. Paper and carrier bags could also offer the same exploratory activities, particularly if these make crinkling sounds. Be sure to remove the handles so that your cat does not accidentally get caught in them.
Your senior pet will benefit from regular health and wellness checks at your animal hospital Tampa, FL.
