“The way you start your day shapes the rest of it.
And mornings with your cat are softer than any alarm.”
Why a Morning Routine Matters
Cats are creatures of routine.
They love patterns, predictability, and familiar rhythms.
When you create a calm morning ritual, both you and your cat start the day feeling grounded and peaceful.
Even just 10 minutes before work can become a sacred moment of connection between you and your feline friend.
