Ravila Hairova and husband Lev Kondratyev left their cat, Karim, with neighbours when they decided to move 2,000 miles from Gulistan, Uzbekistan to Liska, Russia in 2008. Two days later, Karim disappeared; we never heard another word about...

In my experience, cat owners are serial Tweeters often dont go together. It seems to me that people who consider their every mundane thought interesting enough to post on the internet just arent the kind of people who take to looking after and caring for a cat.

Remember a large part of playing relies of stimulating the hunting instinct in your cat, so try playing at times when your pet would be out hunting mornings and evenings are the obvious choices. Since most of us have more free time before and after work, this works out well for pet and owner.

If you are really struggling to make your cat use the litter tray, here are some tips:
Make sure you put the litter tray somewhere where your cat will feel safe and unexposed. Nobody wants to be watched while they go, its only natural!

Experiment by playing multiple litter trays all around the house and keeping watch to see...
