Hi! We have this cat room (pictures attached) because they don't get along with Pharah. Is the cat room okay? We can't really afford any cat "furniture" right now or the doggy gates so we have a long chair in front. Dog doesn't go there and cats can
Hi, in terms of cat furniture don’t worry cats don’t need anything particularly fancy. They enjoy sitting on a shelf as in the picture and look outside the window. You would add some cardboard boxes that can also work as cratching posts and a couple of pillow on the bookshelf. I think the feeding area would better be moved, because being right in front of the windows is exposed, they can see/be seen and could spot something that might upset them. It is also advisable to keep feeding areas away from their litter tray and perhaps moving it would help increasing this distance. Are there only two cats in the room ? If so also consider the number of litter trays. I mo not sure how many you have at present, and if things work out well I probably would suggest not to change them. You can find lots of ideas in building/creating cat furniture from ikea furniture if you fancy a change in the future. Also cats will need to be active and interact with you so make sure you consider this in your rou

How much is it to get a cat at Petco ! And what should I do if I have to leave my cat at home will it mess the house up??And what’s the basic things to get for your cat ? What’s a cheap cat and a easy going cat for kids
Hello. The cats & kittens offered at Petco are actually managed by individual rescue groups. Prices will differ from rescue to rescue. All cats can do well if they are played with & fussed over once you get home. Can they get into trouble & sometimes make a mess? Absolutely. If you do not want hair & dander & kitty litter tracked all over the house, you should not have a pet. Cats may need to have their claws trimmed ( NOT REMOVED ) & plenty of opportunities to exercise their claws, otherwise they will scratch your furniture, moldings & walls. You will need different types of scratching surfaces, plenty of toys, a water & food dish, litter box ( or 2 ), & lots of patience. All cats are individuals, so when you go looking to adopt a cat, take your family & give yourself plenty of time to spend with your potential pet, & ask lots of questions about them. Good luck & thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Their very first cat scratcher post&they don't like it. How can I get them to like it&scratch the post vs. the side of my bed/sofa.Catnip doesnt work.
It may be that they don't like the scratching post. Cats can be picking about a lot of things, and scratching post is one of those things. Some cats like a vertical one where they can stretch out their spine fully, it should be solid and not wobbly, and some do seem to like ones that have carpet covering on it. I'd also recommend one that has levels for them to sleep on, so they can claim it as their own. The furniture they scratch one, such as your bed and sofa, they also sleep on, so they should have a scratching post that allows them to sleep on it, thus claiming it as theirs. To entice them to use it, I would try dangling a toy over it to get them interested in, and praise them and give them treats when they use it. To keep them from scratching your bed and sofa, you can get Soft Paws. These are caps that you can glue onto your cat's nails to prevent them from scratching on things. You can get them online or in pet stores, and they come in a variety of colors.

Hi, I recently brought home a new cat, 3 days ago to be exact. Our new cat has adjusted to our new home and wants to become friends with my first cat but he's scared about it. He doesn't play with his toys anymore and doesn't use the scratching post.
Congrats on your new cat! I would slowly introduce them to each other. Take the new cat, and put her in her own room with her own food, water, and litter box. Keep the door closed, and for a few days, feed them both treats on other side of door so they associate each other's smell with a good experience. Then let the other cat in the new cat's room while the new cat is in a cat carrier. They can smell each other, but not be in contact. If either becomes upset or show signs of aggression, remove the second cat from the room, and try again later. Praise them when they interact appropriately. When they are interacting well with each other through the carrier, you can let the new cat out of her room, and see how she interacts with the other cat. Praise them when they interact appropriately, and separate them with any sign of aggression or upset. I would get a cat tree with lots of shelves to give the cats vertical space to get away from each other. I would keep the new cat in her
