‘Explain to your cat what is happening like they are a person’: Pet Pawrents Spill Their Most Useful Cat Hacks to Solve Common Pawblems

When you're about to become a cat pawrent, you'll probably do what everyone does: Google the basics. The standard advice on the internet will tell you to stock up on litter, scratching posts, food bowls. You may read that it's important to play with your cat daily, don't free-feed kibble, and yes, they really will be more interested in the cardboard box than whatever toy you ordered online that came inside of it. Maybe you'll even watch a tutorial or two on YouTube on how to keep their tiny nails neatly trimmed.

But some lessons in cat ownership only come with experience… and a few battle scars. No one tells you that aluminum foil is the ultimate couch-protector, or how to trick a suspicious feline into taking an important medicine. If you are looking for some tried, tested, and frankly strange "hacks" from seasoned cat pawrents, look no further. Results may vary from cat to cat, but they sure are amusing to peruse.
