2. **Parasite Control:** Implement regular preventive measures for fleas, ticks, and internal parasites. Use veterinarian-recommended medications, and keep your cat’s living environment clean to reduce the risk of infestations.

3. **Regular Veterinary Check-ups:** Schedule routine veterinary examinations to monitor your cat’s overall health, catch potential issues early, and ensure vaccinations and parasite prevention are up to date.

4. **Nutritional Management:** Provide a well-balanced and appropriate diet to support your cat’s immune system and overall health. Consult with your veterinarian to determine the best nutritional plan for your cat’s breed, age, and health status.

5. **Hygiene Practices:** Maintain good hygiene by regularly grooming your cat, including brushing their coat and cleaning their ears and teeth. Proper hygiene helps prevent skin infections, ear problems, and dental issues.

6. **Indoor Environment:** Keep your cat indoors to protect them from infectious diseases, accidents, and exposure to potentially dangerous wildlife. If your cat does go outdoors, monitor their activities closely.

7. **Enrichment and Mental Stimulation:** Provide environmental enrichment and mental stimulation to keep your cat engaged and reduce stress. This contributes to a healthy immune system and overall well-being.

8. **Proper Litter Box Maintenance:** Ensure clean and well-maintained litter boxes to prevent urinary tract issues and promote good hygiene. Scoop the litter box regularly and provide multiple boxes for multi-cat households.

9. **Identification and Microchipping:** Ensure your cat has proper identification, such as a collar with an ID tag and a microchip. This aids in their safe return if lost and helps prevent exposure to infectious diseases.
