Description

Caretakers have an ethical obligation to provide the best possible housing environment for cats in their care. It's important to understand how to assess the well-being of cats kept even temporarily in cages. This paper discusses how keeping records of food intake, eliminations, social and active behaviors, and cage condition will provide valuable information in identifying cats are who and aren't adapting well.
