To make your transition easier, we have suggested a list of things to have ready for your kitten. I purchase a lot of these on Amazon and Chewy. Purchase what you feel you will need for your little one.

 

*LIFE'S ABUNDANCE FOOD. This food can continue to be fed to your cat when it’s no longer a kitten. They will be eating the food in the orange bag, All Stages. As stated on the contract, you will need to have a bag delivered to your home before you pick up your kitten, and if you continue to use it (I get notifications each time you order), your health guarantee is extended to 4 years. They have treats and canned, if you like.

​

Treats: We like to use freeze dried chicken or turkey (Chewy). We Also like Vital Cat Freeze Dried Chicken Mini Nibs (Amazon) 

​

​

​

 

*We use Tidy Cats unscented (usually lightweight), Scoop Away (cheapest at Costco). Do not use litter with Glade or Febreeze or any other scent. This is harmful to your cat. Unscented is best.

​

 

​

​

*Your kitten has been using one of the shown litterboxes, or all 4. You can click the picture for a link to purchase.  When they are older, we love Litter Robot!  If you want to start with a litter robot, you need to make sure automatic cleaning is off until the kitten is at least 5 lbs.

*Litter mat to catch litter  We use a rug like the muddy mat or a plastic one with ripples (see pictures)

​

*Have a cat tree. They are used to ones up to 40”,  but will soon be climbing a 72” tree without a problem. Do not get one with carpet, but only the plush or just plain wood. Kittens have gotten claws caught on carpet and in one case with a friend, broke their leg. No specific cat tree. Be sure it has rope to scratch. I’ve found the ones with plush on the verticals wears out quickly.

 

 

*Lots of toys! Our kittens seem to enjoy large pompoms, play mice, plastic springs, kickers, hide and seek, laser pen, cardboard scratchers, wand toys you play with them, etc. Cats tend to get into more trouble when they are bored. I get them from Chewy.com, Temu.com and Amazon.com

 

​

*Brush your kitten often! Start young and they will usually enjoy it. Start trimming nails young and they will tolerate it better. We try to have nails cut here a couple times before they go home.

​

There's a couple products that are great to remove cat hair off clothes, furniture, etc. One is the lily brush. The others are the pet hair remover sponge, a pumice stone hair remover (my son uses this when he details cars), and the glove or stick.
