Pet Sit a Cat

Pet sitting is not much different from babysitting or housesitting. It takes a lot of responsibility and work. Here is how to pet sit a cat.

Steps

 * 1) Play with it. The owner should have brought a few toys to play with. If they didn't, make up games with safe household objects. Stuffed dolls made for an infant or toddler can work well.[[Image:Pet Sit a Cat Step 1.jpg|center]]

Tips

 * Some cats do not want to be played with. Do not force them to play.

Warnings

 * Only leave the cat alone if they are asleep. Check up on them occasionally while sleeping and watch them at all times while they're awake.
 * Cats, especially kittens, get into things often. Make sure the house is cat proof.
