How many times have we heard the question, are you a cat person or a dog person? You probably do have a preference but I doubt that it has anything to do with the level of care. Many people assume that cats are easier to care for than dogs and in many ways, this is true. Cats easily learn to use a litter box but just because cats are solitary creatures doesn’t mean that they don’t need lots of love and attention. Just like dogs, cats need mental stimulation and exercise.  Most cats enjoy playtime. My younger cat Millie likes to chase her fishing pole cat toy every night. She also likes lots of cat toys. Some cats even enjoy walking on a lease.  Remember, both cats and dogs require good grooming, vaccinations,  and regular check up with a veterinarian.

Remember, your pets count!
