Your Cat Is Your Greatest Teacher

Have you ever noticed how completely satisfied your pets are? Especially cats. When you give them your full attention, they want for nothing more!

One of my most favorite manifestations to date was manifesting a cat into my life. Because of my landlord’s decision, I am not allowed to own any pets, however I put out the request to have a cat because I really love them.

Within a month of having this desire I’ve manifested a beautiful black and white cat that comes and visits me every now and then. Every so often she will come to my window wanting a little attention.

What Causes Ear Problems In Cats?

If your cat’s ears are bothering her, there can be many reasons. Don’t ignore her if she’s scratching her ears more often than normal, or if she shakes her head a lot. She may have ear mites, which can lead to more serious conditions.

What are ear mites? They’re small parasites that live in your furry friend’s ears. Their bites cause intense itching, which can just about drive her (and you) crazy. If you suspect your kitty has mites, look in her ears. If you see dark brown waxy stuff in there that looks like coffee grounds, your buddy probably has them.

Carbohydrates And Cats

Cats are carnivores, which means they have evolved to eat meat. They have claws and sharp teeth for hunting and catching their prey. However, this is not to say that a complete cat food should not have carbohydrates included.

Cats were originally domesticated in Egypt where they were used in granaries for vermin control. The stomach of their prey (mice and rats) would contain partially digested grains. Cooking grains at a high temperature mimics the action of the stomach, therefore an extruded cat food should contain easily digested carbohydrates.
