Bringing Home Your New Cat

Whether you're adopting a few weeks old kitten or an older adult cat, there are certain things you will need to make the transition easier for both you and your new pet.  You don't have to spend a ton of money to pamper your sweetie, either.  Here are some items that will help your cat feel more at home.

A bed
Cats love to nap, and giving them a cozy place to do so is a great idea.  To help ensure the kitty lies in her bed and not elsewhere, try placing the new bed near a window or directly in a patch of sun. Don't be surprised if the cat ultimately prefers your bed, though!

A rockin' collar
I have always had girl cats, and I loved to give them sparkly and jazzed up accessories.  I love that you can get charms for collars that are totally fine for male pets too! Let everyone know your new kitty's name, and that they are totally spoiled with these cool collars.

Colorful bowls
I love that these bowls are so vibrant, and that if you need to travel with your pet, you can just fold them up and go.  Silicone is also super durable.

Covered litterbox
We all know that cats need to use a litter box, but there's no need to have to smell it!  I have always used covered litter boxes and they help cut down on the unpleasant odors a lot.

Fun toys
Kittens can make a toy out of anything, but as your cat gets older they will crave more stimulation.  If you have the space, getting your cat a scratching post or a tower will give them a place to expend their energy, and hopefully stop them from ruining your furniture!
These are just some of the basics for bringing home a new cat.  Most importantly, what they will need is a lot of love and time to get acclimated to a new home.  In time, your kitty will come around and be your new best friend.
