Tips to Live a Natural Lifestyle With Your Cat Revealed in Cat Fancy(R) Magazine

June 2009 issue offers cat owners suggestions to improve their cat’s life and ways to live an eco-friendly lifestyle

IRVINE, Calif., April 23 /PRNewswire/ — Cat Fancy, the world’s most widely read cat magazine, gives cat parents easy suggestions to live a more environmentally friendly and natural lifestyle with their cat(s) in the June 2009 issue, which features a first-ever “flip issue” called Natural Cat.

“Many of us look for ways to live a more natural, eco-friendly lifestyle, so I think it’s an important topic to consider for our cats, as well,” said Cat Fancy Editor Susan Logan. “This issue is packed with information, and I’m excited that we can give our readers a two-in-one magazine.”

Cat parents can help improve their cat’s health and make their home greener by taking simple steps, including:

• Supplementing your cat’s diet. Some cats may not get enough vitamins and minerals from their diets alone. Nutritional supplements can help eliminate nutritional deficiencies and aid in certain health conditions.
• Using natural household cleaners. Look for natural biodegradable cleaners that say “safe for pets” or consider making your own. Baking soda, vinegar and water are safe options that can help reduce your cat’s exposure to harmful chemicals.
• Recycling everyday items into cat toys. Consider recycling items you already own, such as old socks or clothing, to make into cat toys.

Cat parents will find approximately 29 bonus pages dedicated to natural foods, dietary supplements and alternative therapies in the Cat Fancy/Natural Cat(R) double issue, which will hit newsstands on April 28, 2009. The issue also features an exclusive interview with the star of “The Office,” Jenna Fischer, who graces the cover.
