Getting a happy cat doesn't really cost much if we want it and we want it to share its life with us. For this, we have to accept and (yes, also) want the responsibility of taking care of it.
But What do we have to do to get their mood good?
A cat is not a fad (or it shouldn't be)
Having a pet should never be a fad or a fad. He will be with you because you have decided so, so that from the first moment the animal, in this case the cat, enters the house, it will depend on you to satisfy all its needs, both physical and psychological, throughout its life, which can last about 20 years .
It is true that you can never know what is going to happen to us over 20 years, but if we want a cat we have to be willing to assume the risks and / or problems that may arise.
Caring for a cat, much more than feeding it
Having a cat will not only require feeding it, giving it water and a roof to protect itself. It is often thought that this animal only needs that, but it is not like that. A cat can be as or more dependent on the human than a dog, with the difference that if you harm the feline, it will cost you much more to regain their trust. This is something that you have to take into account before adopting or acquiring one.
The human-cat relationship is a relationship of equals. If you treat him well, with affection, that will be what he gives you. Thus every day you must keep him company, that is, take him in your arms, caress him, play with him for several short periods of 5 minutes each day, and talk to him (Yes, yes, you can also talk to him. He may not understand you 100%, but by observing your body language and listening to your voice, little by little he will know what you want to say to him).
Only then can you be a happy cat.
