The following are some of the ways you should pay attention to caring for your cat properly
Caring for cats regularly

Provide clean water
Yes, of course this is very important because every living thing always needs water, we also have to give water and clean water to cats to stay healthy. You can feed it in a small bowl or small fountain so the cat can drink it easily.
Providing litter boxes for cats
You have to provide a box for cat litter at home so they don't defecate, at least you have to provide 1 box for one cat, even better you can also provide 2 boxes.
Also make sure you always keep the litter box clean, check if there is a change in your cat's urine or faeces, it can also identify that your cat is healthy or not.
Watch if your cat poops outside the litter box
Sometimes cats defecate in a litter box that has not been cleaned or the box is dirty, but it should also be noted that the change in habits can also be due to the cat having an infection in the urinary tract or other diseases.
Practice using a claw pole
This is very necessary and important because if not trained on a scratching pole, your cat will scratch some objects in your house such as sofas, carpets, and some furniture in your house, usually cats do this to remove the old claw layer from your cat.
Keeping your cat's teeth clean
Clean your cat's teeth regularly so that your cat is always healthy, because cats can also develop tartar which can damage their teeth.
And even bacteria that accumulate on the teeth can enter the cat's body and can cause disease in cats, because keeping cat's teeth clean is very important.
Bathe the cat according to the schedule
Bathe your cat so that your cat's fur is always clean and do this regularly according to the schedule, usually cat lovers bathe it every 4-5 days.
