Keeping Cats Safe in Winter
As the temperature drops, here's how to keep your cat cosy and safe:
Indoor Cats
- Provide warm spots away from draughts
- A heated cat bed can work wonders for older cats
- Keep them entertained with new toys and puzzle feeders
Outdoor Access Cats
- Always ensure they can get back inside
- Check sheds and garages before locking up — cats love to sneak in
- Wipe their paws when they come in to remove any grit salt
Feeding
- Outdoor cats may need slightly more food in winter as they burn energy keeping warm
- Always keep water fresh and unfrozen
Health
- Watch for signs of arthritis in older cats — cold weather can make it worse
- Keep up with flea treatments even in winter
Stay warm, cat friends! 🐱
