Easter beckons with its four day weekend and promise of better weather on its way. But, did you know that this, the most egg-filled holiday, comes with some pitfalls for your cat you might not be aware of? Luckily, we’ve outlined them for you, so you can make sure your Easter is cat friendly, and finally embrace what you’ve given up for Lent (unless it happens to be on the list below)
Did you know that your cat needs taurine to have a balanced and complete diet? If you answered ‘no’, is it because you aren’t sure what taurine is? If you answered ‘yes’ to the second question, then don’t worry - we’re here to help with our Total Tour of Taurine. What is taurine? Simply put, taurine is an essential amino acid which plays a crucial role in vision, myocardial (heart) function, reproduction and to help maintain a healthy immune system
When it comes to training pets, dogs have always pushed their wet noses to the forefront and taken the spotlight. And understandably so - with hundreds of years of selective breeding behind them, retrievers want nothing more than to fetch; scent hounds sniff out anything from illegal drugs to the forgotten toffee wrapper in your pocket; and terriers are pretty much frantic at any chance to chase a rat (or make a friend/go for a walk/dig a hole/get dirty etc forever!)
Cats have a very interesting relationship with water. We'll buy them specific water bowls for them to slurp to their heart's content, only for them to exclusively drink from a running tap, or worse - shove their furry faces into your water glass

To keep track of your cat or kitten’s health, you need to be proactive and give them at-home MOTs between vet visits. Here's our in-house vet team to tell you how to check your cat's health.
Dr Caity Venniker, KatKin Veterinary Consultant As a vet, bringing up the topic of a cat’s weight can often be a daunting task. Any suggestion that Felix or Fluffy may be a little too round around the edges is often met with an awkward shrug or an uncomfortable silence! However, obesity is considered to be the primary nutritional disorder of cats in the western world, and comes with many dangerous consequences
Hairless cats can be a controversial topic to many cat parents. A neutral standpoint on these not so furry felines is rare, with one team seemingly oblivious to their charms, and the other full of admiration for their striking looks and regal features
The ancestral diet (aka meat) is the best way to keep your cat happy and healthy. Learn why with KatKin.
