Outdoor exploration: catio adventures 

If your cat loves the outdoors but you want to keep them safe inside, consider building or buying a catio (a cat patio). This allows them to enjoy fresh air and sunshine while staying protected from outdoor dangers. Add some cat-safe plants and cozy perches for them to relax!  

 

Hydration: frozen treats 

Keep your kitty cool and hydrated with DIY frozen treats. Try using a low-sodium broth or pureed cat-friendly fruits (like watermelon or blueberries) and freeze them in ice cube trays. This tasty, refreshing snack is great way to encourage extra hydration during the hot summer months.  

 

Interactive play: DIY puzzle games 

Mental stimulation is key to your cat’s well-being. Create DIY puzzle games by hiding their favourite treats in cardboard boxes or using puzzle feeders. This entertains them and encourages their natural hunting instincts to keep their minds sharp!  

 

Cat spa day: grooming and pampering 

Treat your cat to some self care – spaw day anyone?! Regular grooming is essential, especially for long-haired breeds like Maine Coons or Ragdolls. Spend time brushing their fur, checking their nails, and even giving them a gentle bath or wipe down if they're comfortable with it. Use this as a time to relax and bond together. 

 

Summer playdates: socializing 

If your cat is sociable, consider arranging playdates with human friends or other friendly cats. This helps develop social skills and provides a fun and stimulating environment. Just ensure everyone involved is comfortable and supervised! If they’re more of a solo artist, that’s ok too! 

 

Vet check-up: ensure health and safety 

Summer is a great time to schedule a vet visit. Ensure your cat is up to date on vaccinations and check for any summer-specific health concerns, like fleas or dehydration.  

 

Invest in your cat’s health 

As you enjoy summer adventures with your furry family member, consider the importance of pet insurance. Petsecure coverage provides peace of mind against unexpected health issues, allowing you to focus on fun and wellness.
