My cat, Gizmo, is quite possibly the biggest drama queen of a cat. Ever. But she’s also my best friend and she seemed quite unhappy that the only play place she has in my apartment was the old loveseat that used to sit adjacent to the kitchen. I finally wised up started looking at cat condos for her.
Eventually, I settle on a townhouse-styled cat condo, which she absolutely loves. She plays and tears up the bottom “floor” before resting upon the post. Gizmo is still quite the drama queen, but at least she can scratch up something else other than my loveseat.
I bought a cat bed for my little snoofy cat Ella and ever since then our relationship has been so much better. Every night she would curl in bed with me and by the time morning came around, it was impossible to get the cat hair out of the sheets. Although I love her to death, and she is insanely cute, there are limits as to what I am willing to put up with. My friend suggested shaving her, but there had to be a better way than that.
So for a little bit, I tried to discipline my Ella and she hardly liked that at all. Now I just gently place her in the new little home and she just loves having her own space to be as comfortable as she wants. I can even put her bed on mine if I want her to be close to me and still not get any cat hair on the furniture. The cat bed that I got was an absolute life saver and I did not regret the decision.
