Do you want to get yourself out a loved one a new cat this Christmas?
As the holidays come around, pet adoption skyrockets as people look to get their loved ones a new pet.
If you’re looking for a pet this Christmas, this blog post will go over everything you need to know about getting a new Kitty this Christmas.
Let’s get started.
Getting Yourself Ready for the New Kitty!
Let’s take a look at a few things you’ll need when bringing your new feline friend home!
The Basics
Adopting a cat is much like adopting a baby. Before getting your kitty, you need a few supplies to ensure that you have everything that your cat could possibly need.
The things you should buy include:
- A high-quality cat food
- Cat treats
- Food and water bowls
- Bedding
- Litterbox
- Kitty litter
- A few cat toys
These, however, are the most basic things your kitty will need to feel ‘at home’ in her new house.
Creating a Safe Space
Cats need a safe space–a place that they can retreat to if things get too stressful or if they want to be left alone.
Create a human-free cozy spot for your cat to retreat to.
Kitty-Proof Your House
You should remove all hazards that may catch your cat’s attention.
You should also keep all the toxic fruits and vegetables hidden in a locked cabinet or in the refrigerator. If you’re a tea or coffee drinker, you may want to get a covered dustbin to make sure your cat doesn’t get her paws on them!
All in All
Getting a new cat isn’t fun and games. It comes with the responsibilities of pet ownership and responsibilities. While cats are cute, they also require a lot of love and attention.
