Kitten checklist

Get ready to bring home your fluffiest family member.

Welcoming home a new kitten is an exciting time. To help them settle into their new environment, we’ve clawed together some top tips for you all to have the purr-fect homecoming.

Preparing your home

Kitten bed

A small, soft, snoozing spot for your kitten will let them know they’re safe and sound. They’ll spend time sniffing around, so don’t worry if they don’t settle down straight away.

Scratching posts

To avoid your furniture getting damaged by cute claws, create an indoor playground with a scratching post. Your kitten can practice climbing, build their strength and scan their surroundings from higher levels.

Toys

Kittens are very energetic (when they’re not napping), so bring out their playful side with fun, fluffy, colourful toys. Grabbing their attention, developing social skills and refining their reflexes.

Cat flaps

Many pet doors are now microchipped. Meaning your cat can come and go as they please, without the worry of any unwanted visitors. Curfew mode also means you can keep your pet safe by setting open and shut times.

Litter trays

Cats are very clean and private animals. It’s best to set their litter tray somewhere discreet but accessible. Scoops and litter liners can help with clean ups and reduce unwanted smells.

Feeding bowls

Cats like routine. So keep their food and water bowls in one spot, then they know where to go. But ensure they’re far away from their litter tray, and find a spot that’s easy to clear up any spillages.
