Hacks to make life as a cat owner a lot easier

While cats require a lot less maintenance than dogs they can be a bit of a handful, particularly when they are always scratching your furniture.

 

Yes, they generally take care of themselves, but there are a few things you can do to make your life with your furry friend a lot easier.

 

Here are eight easy and effective hacks that will make your life with your feline more manageable: 

 

 

1. Wrap twine around the legs of the table to create a scratching post and protect your furniture.

 

2. Throw dry green leaves into your cat’s litter tray to eliminate odours.

 

3. Surround your plants with pine cones to stop your cats climbing all over your flowers.

 

 

4. Use a ladder as a window perch so you pet don’t climb your curtains.

 

5. Wash your cat in the sink as it is easier to handle them.

 

6. Brush your furry friend regularly to stop their hair going everywhere.

 

 

7. Save yourself some money by growing your own catnip.

 

8. Leave a shelf free or ornaments so when your feline is looking for somewhere to climb they won’t break anything.
