UnHide is on a mission to protect all the animals that lose their lives for the sake of fashion every year in America. “We are on a mission to ban the sale of real fur in the United States,” they explain.
As part of that mission, they upload incredibly informative videos over on TikTok in order to get more people to care about the animal kingdom. After all, the more we learn about something, the more likely we are to empathize with the cause. Best case scenario? We’re inspired to do something about it and change the world for the better. Worst case scenario? We educate ourselves and learn something new by looking at videos of cute animals.
In the second video, UnHide went into detail about purring, grooming, and other cat behaviors

Nina Downing, a vet nurse working with the PDSA, told Bored Panda about how we can encourage our cats to exercise more. After all, this makes them healthier, happier, and they can make our lives wonderful for many more years to come.
According to vet nurse Nina, the very best way to encourage our cats to exercise and move more is by appealing to the more playful aspects of their character.
“The best way to get cats exercising is through play, and this is a great tactic for owners to spend time with their pets and express their love for them,” she said that playtime isn’t just about exercise but also about us bonding with our pets by simply spending more time engaging them.
However, some cats, especially overweight chonks, can be extremely lazy and won’t budge much on their own accord. That’s where a bit (or rather a lot) of patient help from the owner can help them get their health back in order.
“Cats often need encouragement to exercise, especially if they are overweight, as they can lose interest in play,” PDSA vet nurse Nina pointed out that one indication that your cat might be having issues with its health is to look at its relationship with playtime.
“As cats gain weight, their behavior changes gradually over time, which can be hard for owners to recognize—they don’t want to get up and play, they like sleeping a lot, they’ve stopped jumping up on furniture, they’re slowing down due to their age,’” the pet health expert shared what some cat owners say about their floofy felines.
However, some of these comments that Nina has heard in pet weight clinics over the years aren’t just comments—they’re a justification for the lack of physical activity of their pets. “When in fact it is the excess weight which is making them unwilling to move as it’s too much effort,” the vet nurse said.
