It's a cat's world, we just live in it.
In this current pandemic crisis how will our feline friends cope with your increased presence in the home?
This tweet sums it up perfectly:
Shout-out to the nation's cats, who are dealing with the horrifying realisation that their humans are going to be at home for the foreseeable, interrupting their naps, sitting on their sofas and generally disrupting their daily routines of snoozes and Important Cat Business. pic.twitter.com/JGWGmqPKy8 - Kate Socialising Distantly Bevan (@katebevan) March 18, 2020
We've complied a list of top tips to help them adapt:
TIP 1: DON'T STEAL THEIR NAPPING SPOT
This is a huge part of a cat's daily routine and they frequently choose the couch as their preferred spot to snooze. We highly recommend setting your work station up elsewhere to allow optimum cat-napping.
TIP 2: MORE TREATS
Now that all your meals are at home your cats are not going to want to be left out of any snack or eating party. An extra treat or two is going to be necessary to keep the meowing "I'm hungry!" complaints at bay.
TIP 3: CUDDLE BREAKS
Some cats are going to be delighted to have their human around more so make sure to take a break from the laptop to get some cuddles and chin scratches in. Cuddling helps relieve stress and releases happy hormones - good for both human and cat.
How has your cat responded to having you at home?
Maybe a Calming Pet Bed might help them ease into this new working environment.
