Cats - Life Stages

Hi all..its been a while since my last post here..too busy catchin up with my long holidaysss :)

I just wanna share with you, some general info on the cat's life stages.

Here are some normal behaviors for each cat life stage:

#Birth to 16 weeks
Just learning her way around, your kitten may be playful, but most likely shy. Click here for more information on how to care for your new kitten.

#16 weeks to 1 year
Your kitten will likely still be very playful and spunky. At approximately six months old, you should spay or neuter if you are not planning to breed your cat.

#1 to 8 years
Your young cat is in her prime. Remember your annual visits to the veterinarian.

#8 to 12 years
Your pre-geriatric cat may begin to slow down, but her behavior shouldn't change much.

#12+ years
Your cat is entering old age. You may begin to notice some health problems. Your cat will move slower if her joints begin to stiffen. She may also become easily irritated.


Final Thought
In any health-related issue, whenever you have concerns about your cat, consult your veterinarian. He or she is familiar with your cat and her medical history and has the professional skill and knowledge to identify and treat whatever might be the problem.

Super Scoop Cat Litter


After reading so much reviews about this particular cat litter product, I decided to give a try.

After running out of litter supply last week, I get myself into buying this SuperScoop Litter. It claims to control odor and the hard clumping factor makes it easier to clean the box. Here's the outlines of this product:

-Power of Arm&Hammer baking soda destroys odors on contact
-Clumps hard & fast to lock in odors
-Advanced clumping system to remove the source of odors easily
-Just remove waste-no need to completely change litter each time

After using it for 1 week, i did a check list from the above said criteria. And yes, it does perform like they say it is. It smells fresh and hygienic and does control odor perfectly! I'm so glad that my cats tolerate well with it. I was quite worried that my cats wouldn't adapt well and will spray/poo randomly in my house.

Im very satisfied , and willing to ignore the hefty price tag for its quality. Thumbs up !
