Is a Kitty Daycare Right for Your Cat in Swansea, IL?
As cats generally sleep for about 12 to 18 hours a day, it may be tempting to let them slumber away on the windowsill while you're gone. However, cats who may need kitty daycare include:
- Elderly cats — If your cat is now considered a senior, it may be a good idea to have someone make sure they're alright. Cats don't typically show signs of discomfort and can hide signs of even grave illness. Leaving them in a kitty daycare will ensure somebody is there to help them if anything happens.
- Cats with health issues — Similarly, if your cat needs medication or is recovering from a recent injury, it might be ideal to leave them with capable and caring professionals at a kitty daycare who know how to give medication without upsetting your cat.
- Kittens and "teenage" cats — Those annoying antics your young cat gets up to that shave hours off your nightly sleep? They're doing the same thing when you're not home. While a still-spry cat a few years old knows how run around without causing damage, kittens are still figuring out how to be responsible cats and may knock over glasses or other things that both could harm them and destroy your stuff. It's recommended never to leave a kitten alone for over 4-8 hours. At Cats Only in Swansea, IL, we have a dedicated playroom where your kitty can get up to whatever silliness they want without doing any damage or hurting themselves.
- Anxious and/or destructive cats — Separation anxiety in cats can lead them to scratch at doors go to the bathroom on your floor, eat too much, and/or vomit. It may even lead them to escape somehow. Leaving them at a kitty daycare can help calm them.
Experts say it is not advisable to leave any cat by themselves for over half a day. If you think a kitty daycare in Swansea, IL is right for your cat, feel free to give us a call or schedule a time to come by and tour our facilities.
