Re: Starter essentials for a kitten!?

If you know where you are getting her from already, then I would get a blanket (fleece ones are good, easy wash and dry and lovely and warm) and give it to her breeder so it gets a familiar smell on it, so when she comes home with you with the blanket, it will provide a bit of comfort. You will also need a good sturdy easy to clean cat carrier to collect her and for trips to the vet/cattery etc.

Ceramic or stainless steel feeding bowls are better than plastic, and the same for water bowls.

Also check with the breeder what litter and food the kitten is currently used to and purchase the same. If later you want to make a change do it gradually, adding the new to the old in ever increasing proportions.

Its exciting getting a new kitten
