You\u2019ll also want to have collar and ID tag waiting \u2014 breakaway collars are the safest options for cats. If you want to leash train your kitten (yes, we said leash, cats like walks too), it\u2019s best to start them young with a kitty harness as well.

Cats are obligate carnivores (they require protein from meat), so look for food with meat as the first ingredient. Then, make sure it has lots of moisture. Unlike dogs, felines get most of their water from what they eat. Canned, raw, or freeze-dried (and rehydrated) foods are all good options. Save the kibble for between-meal grazing. It is also the time to start off feeding the wet food options as kittens will imprint the texture of food when they are kittens. Kittens grow (and eat) a lot in their first year, so feed them by the specific guidelines on the packaging. Now is also the time to vary the brands and protein sources as much as possible. It provides them with more nutrients and prevents them from becoming picky eaters. Serve dinner up in wide, shallow food and water bowls \u2014cats hate when their whiskers touch the sides because it can lead to <a href=\"\/blogs\/news\/sorry-licking-it-clean-doesn-t-count-as-washing-up\">whisker fatigue<\/a>.

It&#8217;s even recommended to have one more litter box than cats for a multi-cat household. Keep the litter box in a secluded spot of the area you\u2019ve cat-proofed, far away from disturbing noises or smell-amplifying heat. Don\u2019t be surprised if your kitten doesn\u2019t like the first box you bring home. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes for this very reason. Try placing your kitten in it after naps or shortly after meals. Help them figure things out by taking their paw and lightly digging. Try switching litter types and get a pet-specific stain cleaner for accidents \u2014 it removes odors so the same spot doesn\u2019t get marked again. Consider <a href=\"\/blogs\/news\/changing-your-cat-s-litter-is-a-lot-easier-than-changing-their-mind\">these tips<\/a> on choosing the right litter to select the right one for your household. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div id=\"s-23905f85-488c-4d1c-baaf-62ab89ed83fb\" class=\"shg-c \">\n<div class=\"shogun-heading-component\">\n<h3> TRY: <\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"shg-c \" id=\"s-589e2d71-816a-46e2-84a4-36325235c46a\">\n<div class=\"shg-row\" data-col-grid-mode-on=\"\">\n<div class=\"shg-c-lg-4 shg-c-md-4 shg-c-sm-4 shg-c-xs-12\">\n<div class=\"shg-c shogun-image-container shogun-image-linked \" id=\"s-d38a6414-9730-4b55-8677-c421b8428d8e\"> <a class=\"shogun-image-link\" href=\"https:\/\/krisers.com\/blog\/collections\/all?view=products#\/pfilter:tags_category:Litter$2520$2526$2520Accessories\"> <img src=\"https:\/\/i.shgcdn.com\/b4f5ed6c-6fc7-4878-8888-5be81c41c758\/-\/format\/auto\/-\/preview\/3000x3000\/-\/quality\/lighter\/\" width=\"\" height=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"shogun-image \" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"> <\/a> <\/div>\n<p> <script class=\"__SHG_DATA__\" type=\"application\/json\">\n    {\n      \"__shgImageElements\": { \"uuid\": \"s-d38a6414-9730-4b55-8677-c421b8428d8e\" }\n    }\n  <\/script> <\/p>\n<div id=\"s-c46baef3-081b-4481-91ca-da7e2c9e4b42\" class=\"shg-c \">\n<div class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 15px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/krisers.com\/blog\/collections\/all?view=products#\/pfilter:tags_category:Litter$2520$2526$2520Accessories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MESSY MUTTS SILICONE LITTER MAT <\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"shg-c-lg-4 shg-c-md-4 shg-c-sm-4 shg-c-xs-12\">\n<div class=\"shg-c shogun-image-container shogun-image-linked \" id=\"s-661ad137-cf62-4e80-b1d3-5ec9d80ab83a\"> <a class=\"shogun-image-link\" href=\"https:\/\/krisers.com\/blog\/collections\/all?view=products#\/pfilter:tags_category:Litter$2520$2526$2520Accessories\/pfilter:tags_subcategory:Litter$2520Boxes$2520$2526$2520Accessories\"> <img src=\"https:\/\/i.shgcdn.com\/b02319d2-0d75-4fe4-a22e-14ba068776bf\/-\/format\/auto\/-\/preview\/3000x3000\/-\/quality\/lighter\/\" width=\"\" height=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"shogun-image \" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"> <\/a> <\/div>\n<p> <script class=\"__SHG_DATA__\" type=\"application\/json\">\n    {\n      \"__shgImageElements\": { \"uuid\": \"s-661ad137-cf62-4e80-b1d3-5ec9d80ab83a\" }\n    }\n  <\/script> <\/p>\n<div id=\"s-46b5364d-54e0-4658-94b8-983f890d37d6\" class=\"shg-c \">\n<div class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 15px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/krisers.com\/blog\/collections\/all?view=products#\/pfilter:tags_category:Litter$2520$2526$2520Accessories\/pfilter:tags_subcategory:Litter$2520Boxes$2520$2526$2520Accessories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LITTER PAN<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"shg-c-lg-4 shg-c-md-4 shg-c-sm-4 shg-c-xs-12\">\n<div class=\"shg-c shogun-image-container shogun-image-linked \" id=\"s-9b695fb3-31c2-47ec-ae4f-26bd99dc2dee\"> <a class=\"shogun-image-link\" href=\"https:\/\/krisers.com\/blog\/products\/alzoo-apple-blossom-pee-b-gone\"> <img src=\"https:\/\/i.shgcdn.com\/1760c210-e425-4da2-979a-efc3896bf09f\/-\/format\/auto\/-\/preview\/3000x3000\/-\/quality\/lighter\/\" width=\"\" height=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"shogun-image \" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"> <\/a> <\/div>\n<p> <script class=\"__SHG_DATA__\" type=\"application\/json\">\n    {\n      \"__shgImageElements\": { \"uuid\": \"s-9b695fb3-31c2-47ec-ae4f-26bd99dc2dee\" }\n    }\n  <\/script> <\/p>\n<div id=\"s-e9e695f9-6ff7-410d-8b12-5a543f589128\" class=\"shg-c \">\n<div class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 15px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/krisers.com\/blog\/collections\/all?view=products#\/pfilter:tags_category:Litter$2520$2526$2520Accessories\">LITTER BOX ATTRACT<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"s-d3bf4d45-144e-4734-984d-7acbf858ef6d-root\" class=\"shg-c shg-btn-wrapper shg-align-center\"> <a id=\"s-d3bf4d45-144e-4734-984d-7acbf858ef6d\" class=\"shg-btn shg-cse shg-btn-text \" href=\"https:\/\/krisers.com\/blog\/collections\/all?view=products#\/pfilter:tags_category:Litter$2520$2526$2520Accessories\" target=\"_blank\"> SHOP NOW <\/a> <\/div>\n<div id=\"s-2b8632e2-adc2-4fd9-ab60-fa68d7857d46\" class=\"shg-c \">\n<div class=\"shg-hr-wrapper\">\n<hr><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"s-f0258134-1b3a-47c3-baa8-fc5d220a7335\" class=\"shg-c \">\n<div class=\"shogun-heading-component\">\n<h2> GIVE THEM THEIR OWN FURNITURE <\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"s-25a2468c-a932-4bae-845b-a8212c89d593\" class=\"shg-c \">\n<div class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\">\n<p>If you don\u2019t want your new kitten testing their claws on your couch, invest in a scratching post.

But reducing their likelihood starts with regular brushing. Long hair, don\u2019t care does not apply here \u2013 long-haired cats need even more regular at-home brushing and grooming. Also, starting them young with a brush and comb to get used to everything will save you from years of bites and scratches. Hairballs can also be helped through proper nutrition which will create less shedding. Don\u2019t forget about your kitty\u2019s nails. Even with proper scratching surfaces, cats need their nails trimmed. Start working on this early and reward them with treats or play.
