Keep Your Cat’s Mind Sharp

Cats kept indoors live much longer than cats that roam outside, but they also need more stimulation to keep their minds sharp. From kittenhood, you should provide your cat with things that keep them mentally fit, such as scratching posts, a variety of toys, and puzzles for play and mealtime. As cats age, continue to spend time playing with them, and keep them occupied with access to a window and vertical spaces for them to climb. You can also work on training your cat throughout their lifetime when it comes to things like walking on a leash, for example.

Words To Live By

“There are some things one can only achieve by a deliberate leap in the opposite direction.” – Franz Kafk

End the Self-Sabotage

Your unconscious mind is keeping you from having what you truly want in your life, and could even be sabotaging your best efforts. These unconscious commitments fuel your thoughts and behaviours. They are what creates the gap between what you say you want and what you are actually experiencing. When you were young and experienced a difficult situation but didn’t know how to process it, you made a decision about the meaning and formed a belief as a coping mechanism. Your mind believed it was necessary for survival. These beliefs stick with you and are reinforced over time. Ready to erase these unconscious commitments and choose new ones?
