A Feature on the Super Adorable Persian Cats

There are dog people and there are cat people. If you’re a dog person, well this article really isn’t for you. However if you’re the type that loves cats you really need to look into one of the most beautiful breeds out there and that is the Persian. This is a very popular breed and one you should consider if looking to get your very own feline.

Known as one of the most attractive, adorable, and interesting breeds of cats, Persian cats make great pets because of their ability to adjust to an indoor environment. With unique characteristics such as big eyes, wide heads, and thick fur, people can identify them more easily from other cat breeds. Because of their thick fur, pet owners need to wash, clean, and brush these cute little creatures regularly.

Compared to other breeds of cats, pet owners love Persians for their gentle and relaxed appeal, which makes them a perfect pet especially for children. Another advantage of owning such cats is their natural inclination to stay indoors, making them suitable pets even for busy people who are always in and out of their house. Their thick coats make them extremely lovable and very nice to cuddle.

Because of their diverse colors, people can classify Persian cats into several different kinds. Some of their most common colors are lilac, black, and white. In the meantime, some of the cutest types of Persians are the Shaded Silver Doll-Faced Persian, the Persian Chinchilla, and the Red-and-White Bicolor Persian. Additionally, other types such as the Tortoise-Shell Persian Cat, the Persian Calico, and the Blue Point Persian are also very much adorable.

Persian cats are very easy to feed and nourish, however their tastes are more sensitive compared to ordinary cat breeds. Owners usually feed them with cat biscuits, raw meat, and chicken. As they grow, their nutritional needs change, making it necessary for the owners to make a diet plan that will keep their pets healthy all the time. For one to two months old Persians, a milk diet seems very much appropriate. As they reach four months and beyond, pet owners can now start feeding them with soft diet, including chicken and other vitamin-enriched food.

Grooming is an integral part when taking care of Persian cats, mainly because of their thick fur and gooey eyes. Bathing, drying, and brushing are basic procedures needed to maintain the beauty and texture of their fur. At the same time, pet owners can make their Persians always healthy through regular visits to veterinarians. Keeping these cats always clean can help prevent infections and other diseases from pestering these lovable creatures. Concerning the skin of Persian cats, pet owners must check them out for wounds, abrasions, or cuts, which are possible sources of infections and diseases.

While Persian cats do make excellent pets, owners can reciprocate such advantages by taking good care of them always. Expect longer years together with these super lovable and adorable creatures by taking care of them well through proper grooming and nourishment.

Super cat urine prevention tips

Many times cat owners are at a loss as to why their cat doesn’t
use their litter box. Here are some great tips that can help you
solve the problem.

The litter box is the first thing you should check. It should
be in a quiet, private area of the house. Many people put them
in their basements and leave the door open a little as this not
only creates a private environment but also keeps odors to a
minimum in the rest of the house.

Some use a closet but if you do this be sure and keep the box
clean to reduce odors in such a confined space and don’t forget
to leave the door open!

Another placement possibility is under a table. Many people
find a place without carpeting is best from a maintenance point
of view as tile or cement is a lot easier to clean.

Ask yourself if you changed the litter box in any way:

* Has the box been moved to a high traffic area recently? *
Does the box need cleaning? * Is a new litter being used or does
it have too heavy a scent (clumping and unscented is best). *
Has the depth of the litter in the box changed? Some cats like
their litter deep, others shallow. * Your cat has outgrown the
box and needs a larger one. * The box is too hard to enter and
exit. This can be an issue for older cats.

Do not put food and water near the litter box. Cats like these
two areas kept separate (don’t you?).

If your cat has picked out a particular room to soil try
closing the door to that room if you can or cover the target
area with furniture.

Put a bowl of food over the target area as cats like to keep
their eating area away from their “bathroom”.

Take your cat to the Vet on a regular basis.

If you have more than one cat get each one of them their own
litter box.

Have you recently moved? A cat might smell an area where the
previous owner’s cat urinated.

Let the cat alone while it goes so it can have some privacy.

If it is a new cat in your home it could take from three to
eight weeks to get adjusted to the new environment. Be patient!

Was there a recent addition or loss to the family? A new baby,
spouse? This is usually temporary until the cat adjusts to the
change in their environment.

A change in your schedule can throw off your cat’s schedule as
well and cause problems. Try and phase in major lifestyle
changes gradually.

NEVER EVER punish the cat by kicking, hitting, chasing,
screaming or rubbing their nose in their urine (remember the
smell doesn’t bother them). Cats cannot make the cause and
effect connection like we can so punishment after the fact is
useless and will only make matters worse.

Cats are naturally very clean animals and they know where they
are going. It is important to remember this and try and help
your cat overcome any stress or anxiety they might be having in
a caring and loving manner.
