100 Ways to Spoil Your Cat
By: PetPlace Cat Lovers
73. A Little Milk
When I have cereal, my Sammy cat wants the milk. He patiently waits until I am done, and then I fill up the spoon with milk and he licks it off the spoon. Takes a few minutes of spoon feeding for him to finish it, but he relishes the attention. He prefers this than drinking the left over milk from the bowl. Is he pampered - you bet.

74. Little Rituals
This is how I spoil my cat:
Lots of bird feeders outside the windows
Whistle. My cat comes running when I whistle her a little tune.
Leave enough room in the bed, so she can snuggle up with me.
If a fly gets inside the house, I fight the urge to swat it, so it can be hunted for a little while.

75. Canned Food Plus a Little Heat
I spoil my cats by heating up their canned food in the microwave and topping it with turkey baby food.
If they are sleeping on my chair, couch or bed, I will not disturb them and find someplace else to sit. They only drink filtered water, no chlorine for them! Cat perches and beds are by every window, never mind if the furniture looks out of place. They each get their own birthday celebration and Christmas presents. Every Halloween they each get a new costume. I show some of my cats and there usually is a cat costume contest, so each year we try to come up with a more unique costume for them. They also get massages and luxury baths. Yup, they don't mind getting bathed, as the show cats have to be bathed/groomed for the cat shows, so all the cats get a bath (with heated towels of course). Plus top quality food, treats and walks in the park in their SUV stroller.

76. Share and Share AlikeI allow my two girls, Samantha and Felicity, to share everything with
their Mommy. That means when I work from home, Felicity sits behind me
on the chair and pokes her head under my arm as I type and Samantha gets to sit on my appointment book and watch the computer screen.
But my special pampering for them is to make up songs about them to sing to them. I have "Samantha Queen of the Wildwood" and "Tootie the Cutie the Little Patootie" (Felicity's nickname is Tootie). When I sing to Samantha, she purrs and rubs against me and when I sing Tootie's song to her she flips over on her back, drops her jaw and smiles for me.
I love my girls.

77. Everyday PlayI play patty cake with Dulcie eveyday. I pick her up turn her upside down while saying Patty Cake-she only lays still in that position when I say those words-she wants down otherwise. An we play Patty Cake....with a tummy scratch.
She has her own window over looking the bird feeder with her own window seat--a shelf for her bed. She has her own room and bathroom. She also goes bonkers for her morning treat...Feline Greenies....

78. A Little Fresh TunaMy husband and I have 21 cats!!!, so you know we are big CAT LOVERS. We give them fresh tuna fish a few times a month. They all come running when they hear me say the word tuna!!!
80. A Little MeatWe spoil our kitten Salem, by buying him special meat, breaking it in to pieces and putting it all over the fridge. He even has his own step-stool to climb on to get his "meat"!

81. A Towel RubI spoil my long-haired Manx, Topsy-Boy, by drying him with a big fluffy
towel when he comes in from a rain bath on the patio. He loves to be
rubbed down with the towel, then have each of his paws dried really well. He's not a big-time shedder, but after being in the rain the fur really comes off in clumps! And his purr tells me how good it makes him feel.

82. Her Own Place at the TablePrecious has her own chair at the dinner table and we put her plate on the table and she dines with us.
Also we finally found a pet brush that she loves for that extra shedding hair. We haved tried so many that she wanted nothing to do with. This is called PetZoom. She loves it so much, she rolls over and puts her paws in the air and says do my tummy. She will lay there and roll over for long periods of time she likes it so much.
