A CAT'S WORKOUT PROGRAM
Cat fitness really can be fun. However, it is important to start any fitness program only when you FEEL like it. And, please, don't let a few extra pounds intimidate you into becoming more active.
The most important aspects of fitness are:
THE RIGHT TIME:
The best time to start your program is at about 3 AM. Yeah, the house is so quiet, and there are (usually) no distractions. (Mrs. and Mr. are sometimes snoring away, but I'm okay with that!)
THE WARM UP:
The warm-up is critical.
We cats are THE experts of stretching, so this won't be a problem. Start with a few wind sprints at full speed. Be sure you get your claws to click nicely on the tile or linoleum floors. A few low but loud growls will help you feel charged up and get ready for the peak of your workout.
EYE-PAW COORDINATION:
Now it is time to add that all important eye-paw coordination work.
Find a marble, or two (the big steely jobs work the best) and roll it all around the floor as you continue with the bursts of sprints. See how many times you can ricochet (don't you love that word!) the beautiful noisy globes off the wallboards before they disappear under the fridge, or better yet, the stove.
UPPER BODY STRENGTH:
Finally, work on that important upper body strength.
CLIMBING is the ultimate exercise for this. It's the most fun and develops your strength better than any other single thing you could do!
For best results and ease, use the things that are so convenient and readily available: draperies, macramé plant hangers, clothes on hangers, the book case headboard, and my personal favorite - the home entertainment center with the books and electronic equipment! If you're lucky you may have the advantage of having some nice textured wallpaper or even carpeting on some of the WALLS at your disposal. Backs of chairs and couches work well, too.
PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER:
Here we go! A speed sprint to the end of the hall! A race around the living room! Leap to the back of the rocking chair! Let the rebound launch you to the top of the swinging planter! Rock that baby! Feel those muscles work. Just as the hook pulls loose from the ceiling, dash to the bedroom and dive under the covers. Establish your alibi just in time to hear the crash of the plant to the floor below.
Pop your head up out of the covers and blink those innocent eyes at the now awakening Mr. and Mrs. Let them think that is was one of the other cats (or better yet - the dog) who's causing all the commotion!
Ain't life grand!
