I’M GETTING A KITTEN🐈⬛
Meet Maisie✨
•
I have wanted a kitten for so long now and it’s finally happening! She is such a doll and I cannot wait to spoil her🫶🏻

Maisie is currently 5 weeks old, and I’m bringing her home in 2 weeks when she’s 7 weeks old. Mama kitty is a black cat and papa kitty is an orange and white cat.

If you own cats, what are some tips you have? Particularly when it comes to scratching and diet. She will have a cat tower and a scratcher that goes on the door of the bathroom (where she’ll be for litter box training). I also want to feed fresh food and am open to suggestions and recommendations. I’m looking into Smalls.com for food at the moment. Also, how much is a kitten supposed to eat? And does dry food have dental benefits?

Anyway, enjoy my little cutie pie✨

Bringing a new kitten home can be both an exciting and challenging experience. First, it's essential to establish a safe environment for your furry friend. Set up a cozy space with a comfortable bed, food, and water bowls, and a litter box. It's advisable to keep her in a designated area initially to help her adapt. Regarding diet, kittens need high-quality kitten food with a balance of protein and nutrients to support their growth. Consider options like wet food for hydration and dry kibble for dental health. When transitioning to a new diet, do so gradually, mixing old food with new to avoid digestive surprises. As for scratch prevention, providing scratching posts and training her where to scratch is vital. Engaging toys and frequent playtime can help redirect her energy into fun and healthy activities. Regular vet check-ups are also crucial to ensure your kitten's health. The key to a happy kitten and owner relationship is patience, love, and understanding their needs. Remember to enjoy every moment with your adorable companion as she explores her new home!
Any cardboard scratching post or board works really well! The kitties love the sound it makes when they scratch. Just make sure to replace it once it gets shredded
