Recommended supplies

Everything you’ll want ready before your kitten comes home.

[PLACEHOLDER: Kera, add the brands and products you actually use and recommend after each item, with links if you like. Remove anything you don’t recommend.]

The essentials

  • Food: the same food your kitten eats here. [PLACEHOLDER: brand]
  • Litter box and litter: a large, uncovered box is easiest for a small kitten. [PLACEHOLDER: litter brand]
  • Food and water bowls: wide, shallow ceramic or stainless steel.
  • Carrier: a sturdy hard or soft-sided carrier for the trip home and vet visits.
  • Scratching post: tall and heavy enough not to tip over.
  • Wide-tooth comb: for gentle grooming of the curly coat.
  • Toys: wand toys, balls and kicker toys. Put string and wand toys away when you’re not playing together.
  • A cozy bed and somewhere up high to perch.
