Getting a new cat? 🐈⬛ prrrrfect add to the family. This guide covers all the essential supplies for a cat, from carriers and litter boxes to grooming tools and toys that I found helpful in my experience of decades and cats. 🐱
There is this 3-3-3 idea and it does line up with cats pretty well into personality:
3 days for the cat to decompress and feel overwhelmed, 3 weeks to settle in and learn the routine, and 3 months for the cat to feel fully at home and show its true personality. This rule encourages patience and understanding, recognizing that every cat is unique and will adapt at its own pace
The bare basics are : Litter box, litter, three bowls (for dry, wet food and water), scratch post, litter scooper, plastic lunch bags for poops, toys, cat wet food can tops (covers), a cat bed or two (soft cushion), empty low cardboard boxes, a brush, measuring Pyrex to measure out dry food AND a good vet :) those shots required vary greatly in each area, some require more than others.
