You love your cat, and you're pretty sure it kind of likes you because of the purring and occasional lap visits. An indoor cat can be a great addition to your Flagstaff apartment, but keeping an indoor cat happy can take a bit of effort. Take a look at a few tips you can use to make sure your inside kitty is just as happy as what it would be outdoors.
Invest in a DIY Cat Tree
In the wild, cats are natural climbers. An indoor cat with a need to climb may get antsy and try to scale the curtains or your furniture, so it is always best if you provide them something that is safe to climb. A cat tree can be found at just about any pet store, but you can also create your own with a few supplies and a little imagination. The Spruce offers some cat-worthy DIY options that will work just fine.
Don't Forget to Play
Cats, like dogs, love to play. They like to stalk, hide, and even swat. It is not at all uncommon for cats in the wild to do things sheerly for entertainment. Therefore, playtime with your kitty is really important.
Put Out Some Cat Grass
Bring a bit of nature indoors for your cat to enjoy. Cat grass is a bland grass that cats actually like to lounge in and nibble. You can pick up seeds really cheap, plop them in a large planter, and give kitty a bit of indoor nature.
Add Variety to Food Options
Yes, it is best if your cat has a good stable diet of kibble. However, introducing the occasional treat or spoonful of canned wet food is always encouraged. Some cats are particular about what they munch, but most will appreciate some occasional variety.
Walk Your Kitty
Cat leashes and harnesses are a thing. Even if it takes your kitty a bit of getting used to, they will learn to enjoy outdoor time while on a leash. Cats can slip out of a collar and leash rather easily, however, so a harness does work best.
