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

This place is good for things for your kitten packs, it's best to order quite a bit so that it saves on p&p.

if you go to ikea they have throws and they make lovely beding cost 3.00 and you would get at least 6 out of the one I use the white throws for the show bench and I can get a lot for my money..the other is advise for someone that has never owned a cat they will need advise..ger

Some great ideas, thanks everyone!!

Here is what I plan to include for mh first kitten packs ..

Kitten vaccination record
Kitten health / worming record
Kitten diet sheet
Kitten insurance documents
Kitten micro-chipping paperwork
Kitten sale agreement
Kitten neuter agreement
Some info from the RSPCA promoting neutering

Bag of the litter they are used to
A couple of wet food pouches
A bag of dry kitten biscuits
Kitten treats
2 Cartons of Kitten Milk
Play ball
Cat teaser toy
Blanket that smells of mummy
Grooming brush
Safety Collar
Vial of Frontline
Kitten bed
Scratching mat
Money off vouchers for food / litter

I got most of the items from ebay at a bulk buy price plus I was very lucky that a local pet shop near me closed down recently and as a result was selling stock at a VERY reduced price so I stocked up!

same as everyone else really, also agree that ebay is very good for bulk buying!

Wow you guys do great kitten packs, With one of ours we got the "tesco kitten pack" which is about £2.99 and has a little litter tray, scoop, food voucher, mouse, ball and plastic bowl and all the paperwork and with another we got nothing at all just the paperwork
*Goes off to make her own kitten pack as an excuse to buy things*

HOPE THIS LINK HELPS YOU GUYS

hey, my brothers siamese cat had a litter of 4 likkle babies, and he wants them to go to pet homes only,

youv mentioned agreement forms so i was just wondering what do you put on the forms like does somebody of authority need to sign them or something because he wants to make some forms but he doesnt know how to go about it.

info much appreciated ! :P

Hi
He needs to draw up a contract stating that they are not to be used for breeding and he can withold papers until proof of neutering has been recieved from vet so either a letter from them or I have done my own stating that the individual kitten in question was neutered on such and such a date etc and this then gets posted out to me. That is providing the mother is a registered pedigree ofcourse, if not then that wont really work. Most people would be put of it they dont have a pedigree as if they are wanting to breed for money then they wont get much if they are not registered, but it does not stop them doing so if they really want to. Other than getting the cats altered before sale theres not much you can do but it is definately worth having a contract otherwise he wont have a leg to stand on if someone does breed against his wishes. see my website and click on kitten contract on bottom of adopting a kitten page to see an example of what to write in one.
