    ANSWER:

    There are some fabulous new cat trees that will be the purrfect year-round substitute. These trees offer a combination of real, specially treated tree branches, combined with sisal scratching zones and lots of foliage made from silk so that they don’t need maintenance. You can turn it into a favorite play zone by adding dangling toys to various places on the tree.

    Cats love high places so that they can look down on their world — the taller the cat tree, the better. They are excellent a long-term investment and will definitely be appreciated by both single- and multiple-feline households. Change out the toys regularly to keep the games fresh and new. Rubbing catnip in various places will definitely ramp up the fun. You can even place a catnip mouse on one of the levels or hide it in the foliage from time to time.

I never liked cats. When my daughter begged for a cat & I finally allowed I learned that cats are great. I now am an avid cat lover.

I am lucky to have a very affectionate and talkative cat!! She is 12 years old and when it comes to feeding time she will let me know. But what I have noticed she will continue meowing sometimes until I show her their is food in the bow. Her site is very good as is her earring.
Why does she do this?
