The Importance of Games

 

The playful nature of the domestic cat is one of his nicer features. Those who have two or more cats spend many pleasant moments seeing them to be pursued, to be stalked and fighting the one to others. Playing of the kitties contribute that these have more force and coordination, to study the one to others and to essay the adult behavior and the practices of survival. In the adult cats, the game serves to give gone out for the energy and to reinforce the natural behavior.

The game of the kitties
The kitties begin to play once they open the eyes and start moving. (10-14 days). Initially, their games consist in stubbornly and badly coordinated attempts of jumping, of fighting and rolling some on others, to what they add a series of bites, claws and scratches that seems true. When they approach to 8 weeks of age, increases their interest for the toys and they pursue and attack to everything that moves.

This kind of games exercises and develops the predator activity of the kitties: to stalk, to pursue, to jump on the prey and to kill her. And continue in the adult age; let's think about the thing that attract the attention of a cat the tail of other one that moves, a piece of string that moves and a butterfly that is going. However, there are kitties that have not played but they can turn still into habitual hunters; and there are cats that they do not hunt but they play. It is necessary to reinforce these customs providing to our kitty frequent meetings of game.

How to entertain the cat
It is necessary to get many toys for the cat, in order that he could play with us. This helps to reinforce the mutual relation, serves for venting the energy of the cat and prevents this one from getting bored, become lazy or put on weight, specially if he is a cat of interior. It's well any toy that the cat finds interesting, but if it's sure. Take care with the plastic bags- that can asphyxiate to the cat -the bobbins or reels with thread or the wool, as per he can bit and swallow them, and also with the buttons and other free objects.

An excellent thing to facilitate the exercise and the amusement is a kind of feline gymnasium of interior. It is possible to do with pieces to rise up, cords to climb and to be swung, tunnels for running and hiding, and toys that move. Also can include in the design a scraper post or a piece of natural bark. It is not necessary to have a big room: only a vertical space (2m) and many imagination. It will be suitable to change occasionally the disposition, to offer variety to the cat.
