Introduction

Cats are natural-born predators. Their instinct is to hunt, chase, and pounce on things. However, many domestic cats don’t get enough exercise because their owners aren’t providing the right environment for them. Some of the most common ways to encourage your cat to get more exercise include making it fun for them and breaking up their daily routine.

Make the chores and activities fun for your cat.

It’s important to make sure that your cat is healthy before starting any exercise program. It’s also important to make sure you don’t overdo it. Your cat should not be overweight, and she should be able to see well (this means no glasses). If your cat can’t see well, or if she has other issues that might affect her ability to do an activity safely, then consult with your vet first before proceeding further with this guide!

It’s also important to make sure the cat is comfortable with what you’re doing. The activities in this article may seem scary at first—but remember that cats are smart creatures who will adapt quickly if they want something badly enough (like food).

Put toys in and around your cat’s food dish.

The first thing you can do to help your cat get some exercise is to put toys in and around its food dish. By doing this, you are giving the cat an incentive to play with the toy instead of eat right away. Cats like playing with toys, so it’s a great way for them to get some fun out of their day without having to go outside or do any serious physical activity themselves.

The second thing that’s really important is making sure that you provide enough exercise for your cat at home. Most cats need about 30 minutes per day of playtime or other physical activity if they don’t want to become overweight or obese (which is especially dangerous for cats). As mentioned before, this does not have to involve going outside from time-to-time; it just needs to be enough quality playtime inside where he/she lives most often!

Here are some ideas:

Exercise with your cat.

You can play with your cat to get them moving. Playing fetch is a great way of getting your cat moving, but other games such as hide and seek, catch, and peekaboo will also help get your cat’s heart rate up. Once you have found the right toy for them in terms of size and material (soft toys are ideal), it will be easy to set up these games.

Break up your cat’s daily routine.

If you want your cat to be more active, it’s important to realize that you need to break up their daily routine. The first rule of getting your cat in shape is not letting them sleep too much, eat too much and play too much. This is a bit of a contradiction, but it’s the only way for them to get out of their normal routine.

If you’ve already done this and still aren’t seeing results from your efforts, try getting them to exercise at night when they’re sleeping or during the day when they’re napping on the couch.

Limit the time your cat sleeps.

Cats are known to be the ultimate sleepers, but even they need exercise. This can be difficult since cats are most active during the night and in the early morning or late evening. The best way to get your cat to exercise is by limiting their sleeping time.

To ensure that your cat gets enough exercise while they nap, try setting an alarm clock for a time where you know your kitty will wake up naturally (such as around 11:00 AM). You could also set an alarm clock for 6:00 PM if you want them to play in the evening before bedtime arrives. Cats usually take about 16 hours of sleep each day, so don’t worry about them sleeping too much when it comes down it!

Cat’s will get more exercise if you make it fun for them.

To get your cat to exercise, you need to make it fun for them. There are a few ways you can do this:

• Play with your cat. Cats love toys, especially ones that they can chase or pounce on. If the toys move around (like those with feathers or balls inside), even better!
• Let your cat outside. Many cats enjoy being outdoors and going for walks with their owners while they’re out there, so if you want to let your cat roam around in the yard or neighborhood, that’s one more way to get her moving and active!

Conclusion

We hope these tips will help you get your cat to exercise and stay active. It’s important that your cat is a healthy weight, so we suggest consulting with your vet if there are any concerns about your pet’s size. And remember, the most effective way to keep your cat at a healthy weight is by helping them burn calories through regular playtime and exercise!
