Common Questions

Quick answers to the topics cat owners ask about most.

How often should I feed my cat?

Most adult cats do well with two measured meals per day, while kittens usually need more frequent meals. Use your vet's guidance for portions based on age, weight, and activity level.

How can I reduce litter box odor?

Scoop at least once daily, deep-clean the box weekly, and keep one box per cat plus one extra. Unscented litter and good airflow also make a big difference.

Is indoor-only life okay for cats?

Yes, indoor cats can live long and healthy lives when they get enrichment like scratching posts, climbing spots, play sessions, and window perches.

When should I take my cat to the vet?

Schedule annual wellness exams for healthy adults, and go sooner for appetite changes, vomiting, diarrhea, breathing issues, or major behavior shifts.
