STRESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
Cats can get stressed for a million different reasons...most of the time, we humans can't even figure out their trigger!
The most common causes of cat stress are:
- Overcrowding in multi-cat households
- Moving into a new house
- Travel
- New family member (human or animal)
- Moved furniture
- Parties/visitors
- Confinement
- Cat Shows
- Medical conditions/injury
- New cat in the neighbourhood
- Really… any kind of Change
Whatever the case may be, most times they try and tell us in unfortunate ways. Sometimes, they can start to spray; other times they may become agitated and/or aggressive. There are many symptoms they can exhibit.
There are also many possible solutions to help soothe your feline friend, from personal attention time, products, diets or a combination of these. So if your cat is displaying changes in their behavior, give us a call and we can discuss what the right approach might be for them.
