Did You Know…?

Why does my cat suck on blankets or chew on things they shouldn't?

(scroll to the bottom to find the answer!)

Your cat’s gut is home to trillions of microscopic organisms—collectively called the microbiome—and they’re working behind the scenes to support digestion, immunity, and even mood. Just like in humans, the microbiome plays a surprising role in overall health.

Diet is one of the biggest influencers. High-fiber foods support beneficial bacteria by giving them fuel to thrive. Prebiotics, which are certain types of fiber, help feed those microbes and may improve gut health and microbial diversity. Some researchers are exploring probiotic blends or tailored diets to boost these effects further.

Other factors, like stress or antibiotics, can throw things off balance. Even small lifestyle choices, such as ensuring your cat gets enough rest and play, can help their gut flora stay strong.

If your cat seems off, their gut might be a good place to start. Ask your vet if a fiber-rich food or supplement could support their inner ecosystem. A happy gut can make for a calmer, healthier cat.

Some cats politely remind you it’s dinnertime. Others? They launch a full-blown operation.

At one household, the sound of dinner being even slightly delayed sends a trio of cats into action. The ringleader — a determined Ragdoll — doesn’t hold back. He paces, stands on his hind legs, and lets out a series of increasingly dramatic meows. His message is clear: food is late, and this is unacceptable.

While the other cats wait quietly, they’re clearly in on the mission. As soon as food hits the bowls, they spring into action, proving that the dramatic protests weren't just for show.

It’s a funny and oddly relatable display of how seriously cats take their routines. If you've ever been even a minute late to feed your cat, you know: they're watching the clock, and they will hold you accountable.

If your cat’s zooming through the house at night like it’s in training for the Olympics, you’re not alone. Many cats are crepuscular, meaning they’re most active at dawn and dusk, unfortunately for our sleep schedules.

Cats who nap all day often store up energy that they burn off at night. That pent-up energy can lead to what’s known as "frenetic random activity periods"—aka the zoomies. Boredom, missed playtime, or hunger can also contribute.

In some cases, health conditions like hyperthyroidism or anxiety may be a factor. It’s worth checking in with your vet if the behavior seems sudden or excessive.

Want more peace at bedtime? Try interactive play before dinner, puzzle feeders, or a nighttime enrichment routine. Cats need mental stimulation just like we do, just maybe not at 3 a.m.
