Description
Boredom, frustration, and environmental stress are the most common reasons for behavior problems in indoor cats. This lecture will focus on all aspects of enrichment aimed at alleviating such stress. We will discuss the importance of vertical space, food puzzles, novel environmental changes, scratching post criteria, and placement to maximize usage, as well as many fun, seasonal offerings and games that you can provide for indoor cats: Everything from paper bags to perches, catnip marinades to cardboard castles, and even how to build catios! (This session is offered as continuing education programming during the MIdwest Veterinary Conference.)
