Kitty Checklist

Essential Items...

  • Collar- your cat collar should be "cat safe" as well as being fashionable. Having a bell attached is a great idea to protect wildlife against your cats natural instincts.

  • ID Tag- an absolute essential, unless your cat can speak.

  • Food Bowl- a necessity for any puss, be it a plastic or crockery dish.

  • Food- Its important to start your kitten with the right food, a food full of nutrition and antioxidants for every life stage.

  • Water Bowl- there should always be a source of water available at all times, remember a bigger bowl for the summer months.

  • Bedding- for a safe place for kitty to snuggle up.

  • Brush & Comb- to keep their coat clean shiny and healthy, with no knots or matt's. Especially important for longer hair breeds.

  • Toys- kittens are inquisitive and like to play, if you don't provide for them your curtains could become their next toy!

  • Litter Boxes- ... we're not going to explain why!

  • Wormers- for control of tapeworm, hookworm and roundworm.

Recommended Items...

  • Treats- just to show how much you care for your cat!

  • Shampoo & Conditioner- to help keep their coats shiny and healthy.

  • Books- from general cat care to specific literature on cat breeds. Learn more about your new kitty.

Items To Consider... 

  • Lead- can be handy to teach your cat to walk with you, or if puss is an indoor cat and not used to being outside.

  • Harness- stops unnecessary strain on your cats collar when using a lead.
