Kittens At Play – A Time To Develop Their Potential

Do you think that cats should have playmates or are they OK as only children? If so, should they be the same sex or opposite sex?

My two cats start playing by chasing each other then later it seems like they are fighting. They bite each other in the throat and ears and jump on each other. Is this normal?

Why does my cat moan and howl when playing with a specific toy at night?

My cat Taffy is about 1 year old and from the pound. She was found outside. At first playful she has become more and more withdrawn. I now have a 7-month-old kitten and they get along ok but Taffy hardly lets me touch her now.

How much human interaction does a kitten/cat need? I am gone for about 12 hours a day. I was wondering how much time should be spent playing with your kitten/cat to ensure that your pet will be emotionally healthy?

A happy cat signals its contentment by purring. This is however, not the only time a cat might purr. Many cats will purr when anxious, nervous, or even in pain. Many veterinarians report this curious phenomenon in their feline patients.
