Re: What do you put in your kitten packs??

ok i know my kittens are only ever rescue moggies, and some of the new owners come via the rescue group - although quite often they are so overrun, I end up helping advertise then too, still all the same checks are made on new owners. Anyway I enjoy making up kitten packs, and i cover the costs!... mine include...

Kitten Care sheet

insurance/food/worming/flea/microchipping/spey-neuter leaflets

worming and vet check records

Cat coat care - if long coated

Bag Burns Kitten Food

Bag Arden grange Kitten food

3 raw frozen mince balls (naturally i only put them in just as they are leaving)

small bag of (used) litter

fleece blanket (embroidered with kitty picture or paw print)

3 sizal mice

3 furry mice

1 fishing rod toy

2 jingle balls

2 ping pong balls

small comb/brush (if a long coat kitten its a comb!)

play tunnel / small scratch pad (depends on price and whats on offer!)

small teddy bear/soft toy (i buy from boot sales, wash and the kittens all sleep with them in their beds for their last few nights at home - nicely scented to help kitten settle)

Kitten breakaway Collar (remember that most of "my" kittens will be allowed to roam outdoors)

All in a fabric TOTE bag a lady makes for me and emboiders with a little paw print, or kitty picture!

I get most of my toys from ebay, but the ping pong balls come from the sports shop, and the scratch pads/tunnels are usually from poundland type places. The soft toys come from car boot sales, I buy them in bulk cheap, boil wash them and then the kittens sleep with them for a few nights. That way they smell of home and i hope help them settle into their new homes!

The collars are all soft and handmade from a wonderful lady on ebay called hotdogscoolcats. She has loads and loads of fabric choices, cat and kitten collars, and any of her "teacup" collars can be made into the breakaway kitten collars too... just drop her an email! Price is around: £2.67 for a kitten collar, and postage is a flat rate f $2.50 to uk no matter how many things you order! I cant reccomend them enough!

eBay Store - HotDogsCoolCats: Mini 7-11, X Small 7-11, Teacup 6-8
