If you are considering adoption kittens Albury can be a great option. Cats are lower maintenance than dogs and can be a great choice for people who work a lot or don’t want to have to walk a pet. Here are a few tips you should keep in mind when you adopt your kitten.

Know the Temperament of Kittens

The first thing to know is what to expect from your kitten. Do keep in mind that all animals have their own personalities. That being said, kittens are a lot like toddlers. They are curious, hyper, and love to eat. You want to make sure they have plenty of room to run and play as well as toys they can engage with. It is also good to make sure they have somewhere to hide as kittens love to hide when they play and even to sleep.

Get the Scoop on Litter

Most kittens are litter trained right from birth, as they learn from their mother. However, this does not mean any litter will do. Most cats have a preference for one type of litter. If possible, find out what the car is used to. If not, be prepared to change the type of litter you are using if your car refuses to use the box. Also, keep in mind that the litter box will need to be cleaned out regularly. Many cats will go to the bathroom around your home if their litter box is not clean. So to keep this from happening, scoop out waste on a daily basis and change the litter regularly.

What to Feed Your Kitten

Another thing you should know when adopting a kitten is what to feed them. Most people feed their cats a mixed of wet and dry food. You can pick this up at most grocery stores or the pet store. As with litter, you may find that your cat is particular to certain types or flavors. You will learn over time what your cat likes. A good idea is to not buy huge bags or a ton of wet food in one flavor until you know what your cat likes.

It is also important to note with this that cow’s milk is not good for cats. Their bodies cannot process lactose. So if you want to give them milk, go to the pet store and pick up milk designed for cats. You should also be aware that cats cannot be vegan or vegetarian. They need meat to survive and thrive. So make sure you are feeding your cat a diet that meets their needs.
