There are even some clear bird feeders that are made with one-way glass so that cats are able to observe them, but not scare them away with a feline\u2019s ferocious staring.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Vivifying-Snuffle-Enrichment-Stimulation-Foraging\/dp\/B0BLSHYZJK\/ref=sr_1_6?crid=20PZJA3QKWGR2&amp;keywords=snuffle+mat+for+cats&amp;qid=1682037665&amp;sprefix=snuffle+mat+for+cat%2Caps%2C179&amp;sr=8-6\"><b>Snuffle mats<\/b><\/a><b> \u2014 <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While more commonly marketed toward dogs, snuffle mats are a great way for cats to gain mental stimulation, especially if one owns a strictly indoor cat. Snuffle mats are essentially a mat or rug filled with loose strips, pouches or pockets for one to hide cat treats in. When using a snuffle mat, a cat must use their nose and paws to surpass obstacles in order to \u201chunt\u201d for their treats.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/VIVO-Stroller-Foldable-Strolling-Multiple\/dp\/B00Q3JVVA0\/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=2MW9DG718QFTH&amp;keywords=cat%2Bstroller&amp;qid=1682037598&amp;sprefix=cat%2Bstrolle%2Caps%2C222&amp;sr=8-2-spons&amp;ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.006c50ae-5d4c-4777-9bc0-4513d670b6bc&amp;spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExRkZKUDVSUlhIR0NXJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMTA0MTAzMjlPNUlHNjQ1U01OVSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNzUwNzYwM0FMNDBRTEJMWlRDOSZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU&amp;th=1\"><b>Cat stroller<\/b><\/a><b> \u2014 <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Okay, this one seems really extra, but who doesn\u2019t love going above and beyond for their pets? Ranging from $75 to $200 on Amazon, mesh or clear plastic cat strollers allow indoor cats the chance to experience the outdoors in a controlled and safe environment. As someone who compulsively purchased a cat stroller this past summer, I can wholeheartedly recommend one to those who have indoor cats. Taking a stroll with my furry companion to get my morning coffee was often the highlight of my day.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Bissap-Silvervine-Interactive-Aggressive-Chewers-Dental\/dp\/B09KBJQP6L\/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=3RFSAA2GV2KMV&amp;keywords=kitten+teething+sticks&amp;qid=1682037422&amp;sprefix=kitten+teething+stick%2Caps%2C168&amp;sr=8-2-spons&amp;psc=1&amp;spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExWEc1WDNPNUFJNFJLJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNzYzNzQyMUExR0RaUjE3WUEyOCZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMzQ3MDY1MkJaMjVMTzNLQlBPRSZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=\"><b>Silvervine chew sticks<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u2014 One thing no one told me before I got a kitten is that they go through the teething process. While being nibbled by my kitten was endearing at first, those little teeth come to feel like razor blades over time. Silvervine is similar to catnip\u2014 cats love it\u2014 and the toy lends itself to the teething and playing process while also being entirely natural.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Cat-Adjustable-Alternative-Measuring-Install\/dp\/B0BDD2Z8DT\/ref=sr_1_7?crid=14XH43NEIP7N3&amp;keywords=pet%2Bdoor%2Bstopper%2Bfor%2Bcats&amp;qid=1682038045&amp;sprefix=pet%2Bdoor%2Bstopper%2Bfor%2Bcat%2Caps%2C159&amp;sr=8-7&amp;th=1\"><b>Cat door holder <\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2014 This product is great for those who have roommates or more than one type of animal living in their household. This door holder is meant to keep one\u2019s door slightly open so a cat can easily access one\u2019s room, or the room in which the litter box resides. This prevents the cat from accidentally being locked in or out of a room that they may need access to without constantly having doors wide open.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Contact the author at howleditor@wou.edu<\/span><\/p>\n<p><br \/><br \/><br \/><br \/><br \/><br \/><br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1094,"featured_media":19895,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","_et_pb_use_builder":"off","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19893","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lifestyle"],"modified_by":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1094"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19893"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19893\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19895"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19893"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19893"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
