Cats
Cats are very suitable as pets. They are usually very easy-going, and there is no need to take them for walks. You can leave your cat alone for hours at a time, without any problems.Cats can live for many years. Because diet and medical attention has improved over the years, they live a lot longer than they used to, just like people. Many house cats reach the tender age of 16 or 17 years old. A cat will be happy if its basic needs are taken care of: the right amount of food, sufficient drinking water, a clean litter box and a few quiet spots to lay down and relax. Cats also enjoy the fresh air; by giving it a sunny place on the balcony or in the garden you will be doing your cat a great kindness.
Entering a new home
Young cats need to get used to their new environment. A cat can be unpleasantly shocked when you take it out of its trusted environment, even if it came from an animal shelter. It will hear new voices, smell unknown scents and it may miss its brothers and sisters and mother. If you treat your little cat well, it will soon bond with you. As soon as you and your new cat arrive at home, allow your cat time to explore its new surroundings. Don’t confront your cat with excited children, other pets or a room filled with visitors. Open all doors in your house so your cat can investigate as it pleases. First show your new pet where its litter box is, put your cat in it. If it has to do anything, it will. Praise it, and it will now know where its litter box is. Your cat’s sleeping basket should be in a warm, dry and draught-free spot: next to a radiator, for instance. Make sure your cat has access to fresh drinking water. Teach your cat to use its scratching post from day one, instead of destroying your furniture.
If you learn your cat’s ways quickly, it will soon feel at ease in your home. Just make sure you understand the following signals: if your cat is yawning, it means it is sleepy and wants to rest (you should let it do so), and if it circles and rubs against your legs while meowing, it means it is hungry.
A kitten grows quickly in its first year: it will learn and discover new things every day!
behaviour
It is a moving sight to see a proud mother cat surrounded by her offspring. When chosing a kitten, you should make sure it is cheerful, playful and alert. An animal that is shy, acts like a loner, or even hisses at strangers, might have a difficult temperament and become a problem cat later on. It is a good sign when a kitten is chubby and a little flabby, but thin legs and a very fat belly or bloated body with a fat, but slack, watery belly indicates the kitten is not healthy. Its coat should be shiny, clean and not contain parasites. Check the kitten’s ears as well; there should be no traces of dark, crusty exudate whatsoever: it could be just dirt, but it could also indicate the highly infectious ear mite. Be wary of a “cold”. Cats do not get colds like people do, and constant sneezing, coughing, secretions from eyes and nose should be a cause for alarm, as it could indicate cat flu. This is a viral disease that needs to be taken very seriously and often ends up being fatal. Of course, it is best if you take home a bright or lively and healthy kitten, which should always be the case if you buy one from a reputable breeder.
What do I need before my the cat arrives? Before you welcome your (young) cat into your home, you will need the following items: • a sleeping basket (with a blanket or pillow) • food and water bowls • cat/kitten food • a litter tray • cat litter • scratching post • toys • cat brush and comb • carrying basket/box to transport your cat
Collecting your kitten When picking up your kitten, keep in mind that the outside world can be very scary the first time! Use the carrying basket you brought with you to safely take your cat home.

Care for the pregnant cat To make life easier for the mother cat during the nursing period, start giving her Sherley’s Lactol Kitty-Milk during her pregnancy. The high protein and fat levels in Lactol make it the ideal supplementary food for the mother cat and the kittens. Never give a mother cat cows’ milk, as it lacks essential substances that are present in Lactol, making it such a unique product. Caring for motherless kittens It is possible that the mother cat might not seem to want one or more of its kittens, that the mother cat does not have enough milk to feed all its kittens or even that the mother cat dies. Given the latter scenario. Sherley’s Lactol gold offers the ideal solution. With endless care and attention, and the assistance of the special Lactol Feeding Kit, containing a feeding bottle, teats and cleaning brush, you will be able to raise your kittens without any problems
Food
What does your cat eat? In the wild, cats prey on small rodents and birds, providing them with proteins, fats, minerals and vitamins. Cats require a higher intake of fats than dogs, so a cat’s diet should contain more proteins and fats, and less carbohydrates.
A balanced diet for a normal, healthy adult cat will contain all the vitamins and minerals it needs. Pregnant queens and growing kittens, however, need to receive supplemental minerals and vitamins. Cats recovering from disease can also be in need of extra vitamins and minerals.
How often should you feed your cat? How often a cat requires food depends on several factors, age being the most important one. Younger cats not only need food to see to their significant daily energy needs, they also need the nutrients to grow. From the moment a kitten starts eating solids, after roughly two months, it needs 4-5 meals a day.
Health
Proper care will go a long way in keeping your cat fit, active and healthy, but your cat could still fall ill. It is important to recognise symptoms of disease and there are several symptoms that can indicate there is something wrong with your cat. We recommend contacting your veterinarian if your cat is displaying one or more of the following symptoms:
Lack of energy, poor coat, extreme hair loss, bald patches, skin flakes, no or little appetite, a change in behaviour, like becoming extremely docile, restless, being in obvious pain, having trouble moving around, panting, coughing, wheezing, urinating or defecating more or less than normal, and a higher body temperature.
You can help to keep your cat healthy by regularly worming it and ridding it of fleas.
Coat
Your cat might not like water all that much, but it still needs to take a bath on a regular basis. You should keep in mind that a dirty cat licking itself clean will swallow a lot of unwanted dirt and may suffer consequently. In addition, a cat will not be able to remove any unpleasant odourous substances from its coat without help. If your cat has sensitive skin, you should use Sherley’s hypoallergenic shampoo. The shampoo is very mild, but will clean both coat and skin properly. After your cat’s bath, use Beaphar Free Anti Klit Sherley’s Grooming Spray to prevent the coat from re-entangling, and make it easy to brush.
Eyes, Ears & Nails
Eyes Your cat’s eyes are also delicate sense organs. Its eyes should have a little shine to them and should not look dull or red. You should take care of your cat’s eyes regularly: use Sherley’s Eye Lotion eye drops to clean your cat’s eyes. This will stimulate the self-cleaning properties of the eyes through lacrimation (tears) to remove dust, dirt, etc. It is recommended to use eye drops twice a week.
Ears If your cat is constantly trying to scratch its ears, you might have neglected cleaning them. Inspect your cat’s ears on a weekly basis and check for earwax. Remember never to use cotton buds or a sharp object with a wad of cotton on the end to clean your cat’s ears. Clean your cat’s ears regularly with Sherley’s Ear Cleaner: it will soften earwax and has a cooling effect. After treating your cat’s ears with this product, use some cotton wool to remove any earwax. If a brown substance comes out of your cat’s ear during cleaning, contact a veterinarian. Crusts or red skin should also be a cause of concern and result in a visit to your veterinarian.
With many cats, especially ones with a light coloured coat, the skin and coat around the eyes will show signs of discolouring because of tear stains. Sherley’s Tear Stain Remover remover can remove tear stains and crusts around the eyes and give the area around your cat’s eyes its shine back.
After a good romping about with your neighbour’s dog or cat, your pet might look a little disshevelled. If you notice the eyelid or connective eye tissue is damaged, use Beaphar Eye Ointment. It has a soothing, healing effect. If you are concerned about your cat’s health or if the damage is serious, do not hesitate to see a veterinarian.
Nails If your cat can go outside and climb trees you probably will not have to cut its claws. Because Siamese (and related) cats have nails that can grow rather long, you can chip off a little bit from time to time with ordinary clippers (several types of nail clippers are available). Never cut down to the quick; it will be painful to your cat and can cause bleeding to occur. If need be, ask your veterinarian to clip your cat’s claws for you.
