Exciting Life Update! || Setting Up My Apartment For A Cat! 🐈 

I recommend tidy cats instant action litter

Cat litter suggestion... tidy cat has less dust. I personally use pretty litter for health reasons for my cat. She's on the older side and has kidney issues. Good luck have fun🐕

My husband and I highly recommend Petsafe Litter Box. All you would have to buy would be trays. We used to go through litter like it was nothing. We only have one cat

I love how prepared you are! I've had cats all my life and one thing I've learned is to give them at least some wet food to keep them hydrated to avoid kidney and urinary tract issues. Cats aren't very efficient water drinkers so the majority of their water actually should come from their food. Can't wait to see what little friend you bring home!

I also read where cats and dogs do better if their bowls are elevated which helps with digestion. Have fun with your new kitty!!

Not sure if you’ve gotten a water fountain, but I highly recommend one. Our cats love it and drink more water than they would just out of a regular water dish. Scratcher pads are a MUST! Ross usually has cheap ones too. I like the ones that are in a box so that the catnip doesn’t get all over the floor.

Another tip, you may want to get some door stops or prop your doors open when you leave to go to work. Both of our cats loved to play with/by the doors. Our previous cat was a champ at locking himself in the bathroom. When you leave the apt, you don't want the cat being trapped in a room with out their food or litter box.

I get my kitty “Fancy Litter” it’s like 12 dollars at Publix and she loves it. Lasts a while too.

Ahh! Just found your channel, this video is so sweet! Cats are the best (I might be bias lol) and they have so much personality! I love Tidy Cats, I’ve found it to be the best litter so far, but my cat hates the scented version. I highly recommend leaving full cups of water on tables or on the floor, my cat hates the water fountains, but will very happily drink from a full plastic cup of water lol. You have to just kind of experiment to see what your cat likes!

I like to use Cats Pride or the one from Aldis. Those cat liters clump nicely. Also, they come non scented which is good for the cat. Jackson Galexy videos are good info about cats. Our current cat was a rescue from a house with 50 cats. Every cat from the shelter has a history and you never know what type of behaviors they may have. Our cat is an absolute sweetie, but when we first got him, he hissed at us for a few days. We do dry food during the day and give him some wet food at night. Also, if you have an Ollies down by you, they have a bunch of pet stuff for cheap. We got a cat tower from there for half the price of the other stores. Have fun.

I'm so happy and excited for you!!! Both of my daughters have two cats each and love them beyond words! Sometimes it's good to have two cats so they aren't as lonely but maybe start with one cat and see how it goes :)

Feed twice a day, 1/4 cup each time for a grown cat.

I know that my sister gets pretty litter and has really really enjoyed it for her cats. So excited to see what cat you get!! Also I tend to go to Marshalls and TJ Max for pet stuff and only go to petsmart for food if needed. I have a subscription on chewy and it’s so nice to just have everything delivered to my house and not to worry about it.

Awwww so exciting 🎉 Can't wait to meet the new pet 😊

I use Arm & Hammer litter and it's what is the top seller at Petsmart so it's good! hahah But you can get litter at Costco/Sam's pretty cheap. But you're right the baking soda in the A&H will neutralize the sent. In terms of bowls, bigger bowl for water, small for food. You should aim for stainless steel as it doesn't get germy/gross as quick as plastic does. The cat can be turned off of the scent of the plastic if it gets dirty. So ceramic/stainless steel is best. Your chosen food dish is way too deep. Their whiskers are sensitive and they don't like going so deep into the bowl. So more shallow bowl for food. 10/10 recommend the "litter locker" or "litter genie" (looks like a diaper genie) for litter after you scoop it. For a bed- my cats have loved cardboard beds. They sell them at TJ Maxx- very good quality for cheap. My cat favours them over soft beds.
