Discover how to raise cats and birds together
If you want to have more than one pet at home, know that there is a way to raise cats and birds together. This may sound unusual, but it's no mystery.
Cats can coexist with other animals, quietly. For example, they coexist harmoniously with dogs, as they are not natural enemies. But what happens when living with an animal that is your prey?
This is the main factor that hinders the creation of these animals together. After all, the cat is a feline and, therefore, a natural predator. Also, remember that Sam cats are essentially carnivores.
But then, how is it possible to raise cats and birds together? These are the factors that complicate this relationship. However, it is possible. Today, learn about some ways to raise them together and keep the bird safe.
Can we raise cats and birds together?
Cats are predators and birds are their prey. Therefore, when raising them together, it is necessary to think of some previous strategies to keep the bird safe. Otherwise, it could be fatal and the coexistence might not last.
However, as we mentioned earlier, it is possible to raise them together and keep the bird safe. So, be sure to check out some tips, tricks and strategies here to help with this interaction.
The younger the cat is, the better. As a puppy, he still has his natural instincts less outcropped. Therefore, it tends not to attack the bird at first. Also, it is more open to socializing and not hunting.
Animals are trainable. And this applies to cats, even if it is a little more difficult. And this is also true of living with other animals, getting used to it.
By the way, know that cats are quite routine animals. Therefore, when they understand that another animal is part of their routine, they can live with them more easily.
However, there is still the safety factor of the bird that may experience some kind of accident or fall victim to feline impulse. There are also some techniques for this and to win the coexistence of these animals.
On the other hand, there are cases where raising birds and cats together is not a good idea. This occurs mainly with the combination of 03 factors. First, because the cat is already an adult. Also, for never having lived with other animals. Also, he is an excellent hunter. If your cat is like that and you don't have time to take care of this approach, forget about the bird.
In addition, it is worth mentioning: even with our tips, this interaction may not end well. After all, we are dealing with instincts. However, if you want to breed birds and cats together, be sure to check them out.

How to stop a cat from catching a bird?
As we said, there are some tricks to raising cats and birds together. They help to promote conviviality, although there is always a risk. So, see how to increase the safety of the bird and improve the relationship between the animals.
entertain the cat
First, remember to always keep your cat entertained. Cats tend to get bored easily when toys are not available. And that, then, might draw attention to the bird and that might not end well.
Always leave feline-friendly toys at your cat's disposal. Also, remember to play with him daily. This also prevents jealousy and other natural reactions from animals.
Puppy cats adapt better
Also, the younger the cat, the better. So he can get used to living with the bird. That is, seeing him as a companion and not as prey or a foreign element.
Therefore, give preference to raising cats and birds together when the feline is still small. That way he still won't have all the hunting instincts out. That is, it tends to behave better and offer less danger to the bird.
Gradually promote conviviality to be able to raise cats and birds together
Another important point is to promote the coexistence of the bird and the bird little by little. This, of course, always under proper supervision. Never leave the bird out of the cage, near the cat, when you are not in the environment.
By gradually bringing the cat and the bird closer together, the feline gets used to the bird's smell. In addition, he becomes less curious about her. The longer she stays in the cage, the greater the chances of the cat creating (harmful) interest in her.
And this can end in fatal accidents. So try to get the past out of the cage with some frequency. In that moment, always present, let the cat and her stay close. However, suspend this strategy by any kind of movement or sudden reaction from the cat.
neuter your cat
Our penultimate step to raise cats and birds together is to neuter the feline. This tends to lessen their eagerness to hunt. That is, his hunter instincts are still present, but less outcropped.
Still, this is interesting for other purposes. Castration reduces the cat's attempts to escape. Also, he tends to get along better with humans and other cats. Likewise, the danger of injuries from fights with other animals decreases. Equally, unwanted pregnancies and even diseases.
Keep the environment calm
Finally, our last tip for successfully raising cats and birds together is always to keep the environment calm. When putting them together, notice what their reactions are. Also, beware of your own reactions.
Keeping calm is important for you, the bird and the bird. Tense environments can cause them to attack each other for defensive purposes and that's not what we want. So be careful, pay attention and stay calm!
With our tips you can raise cats and birds in a safer way. However, we remind you again that risks exist, after all we are talking about natural instincts.
So whenever you're not around, make sure the bird is in a cage where the cat can't reach. Thus, he is not dangerous. Likewise, always observe the behavior of the animals and anticipate possible dangers.
