STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • A groundbreaking study concluded that healthy cats can behave as if they're sick when their routine is altered, and they feel stressed as a result; there's a scientific explanation behind the often-used phrase "stress kills"
  • Many of the things you find stressful also feel stressful to your kitty; in addition, there are things you might not be aware of that can also contribute to your cat feeling out of control and highly stressed
  • Unlike a human, your cat can't de-stress with a hot yoga class or meditation; stress management for your cat involves providing her with a feline-friendly living situation
  • You can use your cat's five senses to create an environment and lifestyle for her that helps relieve stress and encourages vibrant health and a long life
