3 Steps to Keep Your Cat Healthy and Happy #GetHealthyHappy

Our Cats Depend on Us

Our cats depend on us.  It is our responsibility to make the best possible decisions to keep them healthy and happy. By following three simple steps you can do your part to help your cat live their best life.  Annual veterinary checkups, nutrition and the little extras like play, treats and grooming all help keep your cat living their best life.

3 Steps to Keep Your Cat Healthy and Happy

Annual Vet Visits

To learn more about the importance of annual vet visits, read our post Keep Your Cat Healthy and Happy  about Annie and Eddie’s one year checkup.

Mealtime

To learn more read our post Helping Your Cats Live Their Best Lives

Little Extras

Treats are a favorite little extra for cats.  Treats also help during positive reinforcement training with your cat. Hill’s has several cat treats that have balanced nutrition so you can feel confident giving these treats to your cat.  To learn more about the little extra things we do for Annie, Eddie and Mercy read our post The Little Things Can Mean the Most

Welcome to The Tiniest Tiger

Joanne McGonagle Namibia

Hi, I’m Joanne and I love all cats. With a Global Field Master of Zoology degree focused on big cat conservation, I like to learn and talk about big cats too. I share my habitat with Paul and we were adopted by our cats Annie, Eddie and Bob.

The Tiniest Tiger has a fierce following of cat lovers and we’d love it, if you’d join us.
