Holiday Cat Tip 3: It's Time for a Party!

Although visitors may be welcomed guests to you, your cat may get nervous and upset by all the new faces and bustle of the party. Guests, not always being as aware of your cat as you are, may accidentally step on your cat or unknowingly lock your cat in a coat closet or bathroom. And as most cat owners know, a cat who is locked somewhere he/she does not want to be WILL let you know it in one way or another! Another potential hazard comes from the possibility of your cat escaping during guest entry and exit. During parties you may want to keep your cat in a separate room or separate part of the house that is closed off to visitors. Make sure that the room has a litterbox, food, water, some toys and a cat bed or blanket that your cat likes to sleep on. Although your cat may initially not appreciate being confined to a single area, he/she will welcome the quite, solitude, and safety that it will bring in the long run. And always make sure you cat is wearing an ID tag, so in the event that he/she does get lost you have the best possible chance of having your cat returned homed safe and sound.
