The Norwegian cat is a very active and freedom-loving animal. But despite this, she easily adapts to life in an ordinary city apartment. Norwegian cats are very friendly and affectionate towards people. They easily get along with other pets. In order for a Norwegian cat to look gorgeous and always energetic, it must be properly cared for.
Instructions
Step 1
Norwegian cats, in nature hunting mice and other small rodents, are rather unpretentious and not capricious in food. But still, if you want your furry pet to be healthy and beautiful, take his diet very seriously. The main food for a Norwegian cat should be meat. In addition to it, include in the menu of the animal by-products (heart, kidneys, lungs, liver), cereals, vegetables, dairy products and various vitamin supplements. The greens will help clear the fur from your pet's stomach. Make sure that there is always a bowl filled with clean water next to the cat's plate.
Step 2
Do not forget to take care of the thick coat of the Norwegian cat every day, despite the fact that it is not at all prone to the formation of lumps and mats. Pay special attention to combing the fluffy "pants" and tail of the animal. In the spring and autumn, when Norwegian cats moult, brush your pet more thoroughly, at least twice a day. This will help the animal to get rid of dead hair, as well as avoid unnecessary problems with cleaning the apartment.
Step 3
Make your own or buy a scratching post from your pet store. This is the only way you can protect your furniture from the long and powerful claws of the Norwegian cat.
Step 4
The Norwegian cat simply needs walks, because this animal is very mobile. Therefore, in the summer, be sure to take your fluffy pet to the dacha, he will definitely appreciate it. Many Norwegian cat owners walk their pets on special cat leashes all year round. Despite the fact that the Norwegians are very smart and quick-witted, do not risk letting your pet go for a walk unattended.
Step 5
Remember to play with your Norwegian cat more often. Use small rubber balls, fur bombs, clockwork mice as toys.
