If you perceive your cat as a member of the family, then the idea of having a celebration in honor of his birthday looks quite natural. Of course, you can just set the festive table and drink champagne for the health of your pet. But you can go the other way - and try to make sure that the cat gets maximum pleasure on this day.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare gifts. It can be a scratching post or a house for animals, a comfortable pillow, an interesting toy (a fur mouse with a squeaker, a catnip sock, a ball, and so on) - everything that can please your pet. A pen with a laser pointer can be an excellent present - most cats are very recklessly hunting for a bright red speck. In addition, you can make a "practical" gift - a new tray, a beautiful bowl for food or feed, a convenient carrying bag.
Step 2
Design a holiday menu. If the cat usually eats industrial food, on a holiday you can replace dry food with mouth-watering canned cat food. An animal accustomed to natural food can be offered his favorite treats on this day. At the same time, you can share a meal with the birthday man - for example, if he prefers beef, include steaks in your own menu; if the cat is crazy about liver or chicken, cook it for yourself too. If your pet is inclined to beg for pieces from the master's plate, make sure that there are snacks on the table that will not harm your pet and treat him, for example, with a piece of cheese.
Step 3
If you maintain friendly relations with the owners of the parent of your pet, call them or send an SMS, reminding them of this significant date and thanking them, as well as the mother of the hero of the occasion for the fact that such a wonderful animal has appeared in your family.
Step 4
Surround your cat with love and care. If it is an active animal, play with it. If your pet loves most of all to lie quietly on the owner's lap, give him such an opportunity. Pet the cat, say sweet words to him, scratch behind the ear - in general, please in all possible ways.
Step 5
If you have a child, you can turn the cat's birthday into a small children's party. Call your son's or daughter's friends and come up with a thematic program. For example, arrange a viewing of cartoons with a cat theme, invite them to draw or sculpt a portrait of the birthday boy from plasticine. But do not forget to remind that a cat is not a toy, but a living creature, and it must be treated with respect. And, if in the midst of the holiday the birthday person wants to hide from the guests under the bed, do not pull him out by the tail.
