Description
This lecture will discuss the importance of encouraging indoor cats to work for their food, motivating cats to learn how to forage, staging the difficulty level of the objects offered, and setting clients up for success when feeding this way. The benefits of this type of feeding style bring out the hunting instincts of our cats and introduce enrichment into their lives. We will specifically discuss implementing this feeding strategy in a multi-cat household, as a weight loss program, and as a tool to keep young cats busy and working their minds and bodies. This session is offered as continuing education programming during the Midwest Veterinary Conference.
