              9 Ways To Make Living With A Cat Easier

by Katie Finlay

It’s not that living with cats is difficult, it’s just that they can suddenly seem to take over our lives. After adding a cat to your home, you soon realize that you really belong to the cat – not the other way around. Our cats are the head of the household! Whether you’re struggling to adapt to your new schedule or just finally realizing you want to make things a little lighter on yourself, these tips will make living with a cat so much easier.

#1 – Trim Nails Regularly

A healthy cat’s claws will grow quickly and if you want to suffer as little as possible, it’s a good idea to trim them regularly. Not only will you be less likely to get scratched up, you’ll be saving your furniture and making your cat more comfortable.

#2 – Offer a Safe Place

Cats aren’t the most socially outgoing animals around, with a few exceptions. Therefore, it’s a great idea to create a safe place for your cat to go when they’re feeling scared or uncomfortable. You can make a whole room a safe place or just put a bed somewhere quiet and secluded.

#3 – Get a Spray Bottle

Cats aren’t as easy to train as dogs, but it’s certainly possible. If you’re looking to stop a behavior that your cat is doing that bothers you, like jumping on the kitchen counter, you can use a spray bottle as a relatively harmless correction. Just make sure you’re cat doesn’t see you, because they aren’t the most forgiving pets.

NOTE:  BCR DOES NOT agree with spraying the cats!!  This is the authors opinion only!
