A cat favorite! This is my cats' top choice, but not mine. I get the outdoor variety above because it is a little cheaper, but this apparently tastes better. #ad

A variety pack gives each cat options. Some cats love the ribbon on a stick, others like mice or pom poms. Still others prefer the bell ball. #ad

Kitty Litter

The not-so-fun part about owning cats, but the right kitty litter helps. Keep in mind with these recommendations that my cats are outside and get a litter box just so they leave the garden alone. There might be better choices for indoor little boxes.

A great option. Performance-wise, this seems just as good as Special Kitty, but it is a little more expensive (probably the nice bucket). #ad

Also a great option. Performance-wise, this seems just as good as Special Kitty, but it is a little more expensive (probably the nice bucket). #ad
