📌00:00 10 Ways You Are Hurting Your Cat Without Realizing📌
00:24 10- Forcing attention on cats:
Dogs may adore attention, but cats only like it. Sometimes. Under the specific conditions that they dictate and in the exact way they like it. But we all knew cats are picky! It's best to respect your feline companions' basic needs and never impose your attention on them or cuddle them against their will.
01:14 9- Bringing in plants without ensuring your cat's safety:
Who doesn't love plants? But some plants might not love your cat.
Lilies, which are commonly seen in floral arrangements, are incredibly poisonous to cats, and any portion of this plant can cause renal failure and sometimes death.
01:48 8- Allowing your cats to play with string or yarn:
Yes, all the cartoons and illustrations of cats playing with balls of yarn are adorable... but what they don't tell you is that intake of yarn or thread might result in what veterinarians refer to as a linear foreign body.
02:25 7- Teaching cats to "hand play:"
Cats like striking at anything that moves in their way, whether it's a laser pointer or a string. Because of that, you shouldn't use your own hands as a temptation during playtime. This is because cats are built to seek and hunt prey. When humans train their cats to hunt with their hands, the results are often unpleasant and sometimes deadly for both the person and the cat.
02:58 6- Punishing your cat harshly:
There's nothing wrong with teaching your cat a certain habit with a bit of negative reinforcement, but when you misuse it, it can create fear, anxiety, and owner rejection, making it the least ideal technique for modifying behavior.
04:01 5- Feeding your cat only dry food:
Cats are suited to living in dry areas and can obtain all of their water from their diet if fed a balanced meal. And, because cats do not have a strong desire to drink liquid when they are thirsty, retaining them hydrated through food is critical.

04:37 4- "Free feeding" your cat:
We get it... sometimes you're away from home for long hours, and there's no one to feed your cat. You might think leaving a bunch of food out on the dish and letting your cat whenever it's hungry is a good idea, but that actually leads to obesity!
05:11 3- Giving your cats animal bones to eat:
Did you know raw bones can actually shatter your cat's teeth and cause constipation and intestinal obstructions? Raw bones can carry bacteria that could make both animals and people sick.
05:40 2- Leaving your cat alone for over 24 hours:
The length of time you can leave your cat alone depends on their personality and habits. Other influences include their surroundings, health, and age. Remember, this is the maximum length of time you should leave your cat alone at home. It would help if you had someone check up on them after this period. Your pet must have plenty of food, clean water, and a secure place to sleep.
06:37 1- Feed your cat milk:
Kittens sip their mothers' milk until they are weaned, which can happen as early as four weeks of age. Kittens usually consume solid meals at the age of 8 to 10 weeks. Although kittens can drink their mothers' milk, many cats lose the capacity to do so after weaning. After weaning, cats often lose their ability to digest the sugar included in milk because solid food replaces it, and they no longer require this function.
