Pet cats need positive, consistent, and predictable human-cat social interaction. It should be individualized to the likes of the specific cat. Examples of interactions can include holding the cat, brushing the cat with a soft brush, rubbing and petting the cat, walking outdoors with the cat on a harness, or interacting with a stick and string toy. Giving each household cat 10 minutes twice a day for interaction can reduce cat stress and increase the human-cat bond.

Multi-cat households can have intercat tension. The signs can be very subtle. There are things that can be done to help reduce tension between cats in the same household. Provide multiple and separated key environmental resources. Feed in separate locations and out of sight from one another. Make sure food is nowhere near the litter boxes. Have multiple safe resting areas at different heights. Make sure there are multiple litter boxes. There should be one litter box more than there are cats. For example, if there are 2 cats in the house then there should be 3 litter boxes. The litter boxes should be positioned away from each other; otherwise, cats treat it like one giant litter box. Ensure all resources are out of view of outdoor cats. These are just a few suggestions to help reduce the stress between cats in the household.
