Cats and children

Cats and children seem to have a special bond. Few kids can pass up the opportunity to pet, play with or just nudge a little closer to a cute kitten or cat.Feline can make good first pets for children in your home. Compared to dogs,
they are low maintenance because they don't need to go outside to relieve themselves or do hard sports, nor do they require frequent baths. And due to their relatively low energy levels, they can be kept indoors safely without making a lot problem.



However, not all kind of cats are suitable for children. Some cats prefer to be left alone or don't like to play with mankind; others are high maintenance. So it's significant to look at breed temperaments before making a decision on which cat to get.

When you do bring home the kitty, supervise the first interaction between your pet and your kid. The cat might be shy at first, especially around a handful of new people, and it might try to hide and get out of people group, bite or scratch. Give it time to get comfortable with you before introducing it to your children. And be sure to teach your kids not to tease him, throw or lug the cat around by the armpits. Depending on their ages, you can also teach your kids how to feed, groom and take care of their new friend.
