What You Need to Know Before Adopting a Cat

Thinking about adopting a cat? How exciting! Friendly felines make wonderful companions, filling your home and your heart with loads of playtime, purrs, and personality. But before you begin your awesome journey as a new pet parent, here are some handy tips for adopting your first cat.

Shop for your cat supplies  

Before you bring that furry bundle of joy home, you’ll want to make sure you have all the basic cat supplies on hand when your cat arrives. Stock up on high-quality cat food and treats, toys, bedding, a cat carrier, a litter box, and a scratching post. Once you have all the essentials, you and the new meowing member of your family will be ready for the “big day.”

Cat-proof your home

Cats need a safe environment. So, it’s important to remove any potential hazards to keep your cat out of harm’s way. Get rid of risky temptations like plastic bags, poisonous plants, cleaners, and wires before you bring kitty home.

Prepare a special area for your cat

Whether you are living in an apartment or a house, you’ll need to provide a secure area of your home for your new family member. Even if you don’t have a separate room to spare, you can always create an area where your cat can call home. A closet, a corner of your bedroom or living room, even a carboard box will make a great hiding place where your cat can have some privacy.

Vet a vet

Making sure your cat has a clean bill of health is super important. So, you’ll need to find a vet to handle your kitty’s medical care—vaccinations, check-ups, and spaying or neutering. Check online reviews, ask a friend, or visit some of the local veterinary clinics to find one that is the right fit for you and your feline.

Consider keeping your cat indoors

One of the biggest choices cat owners have to make is whether to allow their feline friend to roam freely outside. But outdoor cats can be subjected to a host of dangers that can shorten their life span, such as getting hit by a car, attacked by a dog, or exposed to infections and disease. Installing perches on windowsills or providing a comfy lap for your cat to curl up on while you are sitting on your deck are great alternatives that will keep your cat stimulated, happy, and safe for many years to come.

Welcome to the wonderful world of pet parenting. With a little preparation and a whole lot of cat TLC, your frisky feline will become a cherished member of your family in no time.
