Environmental enrichment: Awaken their body and mind

If you want to help your cat avoid stress, obesity, destructive tendencies, and a host of other problems, be sure to provide them with plenty of outlets for physical and mental stimulation. Depending on your kitty’s age and preferences, you can easily enrich their surroundings and keep them happily engaged with scratching posts (see Tip #32), empty boxes, toys, and food puzzles. Or you can get a little more elaborate and build an indoor/outdoor enclosed cat patio (a.k.a. “catio”), or even set up an indoor agility course!
