Physical fitness support. The feline family is created for constant movement and active time spending. In the wild, even just on the street, they have to move a lot to get food. Just lying on the couch can cause many health problems, starting from obesity and joint pain.
Combatting boredom. When left alone at home, your pet feels lonely. Some animals tend to eat out of boredom with extra portions of cat food, while others come up with interesting activities themselves. However, the consequences of their entertainment are not pleasing to the owners. So be sure to provide your cat with a toy to keep them occupied in your absence.
