Indoor cats are safer from cars and predators, but they face a different threat: boredom. A bored cat can become destructive, depressed, or obese. Enrichment is about creating an environment that stimulates their natural instincts.
Vertical Space
Cats live in three dimensions. Cat trees, window perches, and shelves allowed them to survey their territory from above, providing a sense of security and entertainment.
Food Puzzles
Make them work for their meals. Food puzzles engage their “hunting brain,” turning mealtime into a game. This not only bans boredom but also slows down eating, preventing “scarf and barf.”
