The animal in the apartment needs to have “his” place, not only physically but also mentally. A dedicated zone with a bed, bowls and toys will give your pet a sense of security and stability. If you have more animals, it is good to separate their zones to reduce the risk of conflicts. Cats can offer more height levels, scratches, shelves or window sills that give them an overview of their environment and at the same time stimulate them.

The apartment does not have to be an obstacle for the active life of a pet. Dogs need regular walking, ideally combined with play or. Give the cats interactive toys, tunnels, or cat puzzles. Small animals, such as rabbits or guinea pigs, need their time outside the cage every day: under supervision and in a safe space.

Changing the environment, noise from the street or loneliness can all cause stress in animals, which is manifested, for example, by excessive meowing, barking, destructive behavior or apathy. The creation of a quiet zone, the use of pheromone diffusers, white noise or music for animals can help. For stronger stress manifestations, it is appropriate to consult with the veterinarian.

Invest in high -quality litter for cats or air filters. Regular brushing of hair and care for paws is also important, especially after returning from outside.
