1. Keep your cat away from other pets that they may be a danger to. (i.e. reptiles, birds, and fish)

2. Make sure your cat is indoors at all times. They'll be healthier and much happier.

3. If you keep electric cords around especially around the holidays your cat maybe curious to chew them. Keep your cat in a cordless free environment when you are away.

4. Don't leave windows open if there is not a protective screen available. Your cat might be tempted to jump out.

5. If you have chemicals around make sure all caps are tightly sealed. If you see that a chemical is leaking on the floor immediately clean it up and remove the leaking bottle from that area.

6. If you are uncertain of what human foods and medicines are harmful to your cat consult your vet.

7. Make sure you keep your pets Identification Card up to date at all times.

8. Be sure to check areas like the stove, garage, laundry are and cabinets to make sure your cat is not in those areas.

9. Gently handle your kitten on a regular basis to prevent behavior problems due to lack of contact.

10. Don't leave cats around with children under 7 years of age. They can accidentally harm your pet.

Pet Insurance!

Pet Insurance pays the veterinary costs if your pet is ill or has an accident. Some policies also pay out if the pet dies, is lost or stolen. The purpose of pet insurance is to remove the need for the "life or money" decision if a pet guardian is faced with an unexpected and very expensive veterinary bill. Since pets are considered part of the family more and more and veterinary medicine is increasingly using expensive human medical techniques and drugs, pet guardians are facing this emotional decision more frequently than in the past. Policies usually limit the amount they will pay out either by capping the total sum they will pay out in a year, or place a limit per illness or accident, or place a cap per claim with the claim period being limited to a year. The pet owner usually also has to make a payment towards any claim. Pet insurance generally will not pay for preventative veterinary care (such as vaccinations) or elective veterinary care (such as neutering) since these costs are known and can be budgeted for in advance.
