The absolute best carrier out there. These open ALLLL the way from the top and have a MASSIVE front door, getting your cat is in easy AND the vet can usually do their exam while your cat stays inside just by opening the top
Catit Cabrio Cat Carrier
Absolute must before traveling and especially for the vet. This is basically a cat’s happy/calm pheromone in a bottle. Our vet uses this in their office and before and during travel makes the trips stress free for everyone
Feliway Spray
Food and Water Supplies
Cats drink a lot more when they have a source of running water, like a fountain. In the wild, still water = potentially contaminated, your cats are inherently not drawn to still water in bowls. These flower ones are amazing because you can use it wit...
Catit Flower Fountain
These food dishes have lids that only open when the correct pet is in front of it. They work by scanning their microchips (they also have collar tags if your pet isn’t microchipped), one of my cats is on a prescription diet so these have been THE BES...
Sure Petcare SureFlap Microchip Pet Feeder
Cat-ify The House
This stuff doesn’t just cover up cat urine, spray, pheromones, etc, it literally eliminates it. I honestly don’t know how it works but it works wonders. If your cat has ever had an accident outside of the litter box, this would be the first thing I’d...
THORNELL Cat Odor-Off Concentrate Eliminator
The absolute best cat shelf I have ever found!! We actually just ordered two more of these, they are made SO well, nice thick carpeting and wooden base and back. I have a pretty chonky cat and he feels very secure on it. They even come with two massi...
Wall Mounted Cat Bed/cat Bed/cat Shelf/pet Bed/kitten Bed/cat Bed for Wall
These are SO FUN we absolutely love ours. It’s basically a cat shelf with a picture frame in front of it. This gives the illusion that your cat is inside of a piece of framed artwork. They are so easy to install, they come with a template to make han...
Frame Your Feline
After getting a stainless steel litter box I will NEVER go back. My cats are all sensitive to scents so cleaning the litter boxes were always a challenge. With the stainless steel ones, I can use boiling water and steam to get them nice and clean wit...
Stainless Steel Litter Box
An absolute must if you like sleeping with your door shut. These kits basically make a little cat entrance right in the corner of your door, I think these are a lot less ‘ugly’ than traditional pet flaps and are so easy to install, plus they can be l...
Kitty Korner Cat Door Kit
Cats need a place to scratch and stretch that is at least double the length of their body. So many cats turn to scratching furniture because it’s usually taller than most scratching posts. This one is HUGE and made of fabric so furniture or couch scr...
Cat Craft Bobcat Cat Scratching Post Indoor
Feliway is quite literally happy pheromones for cats. When your cat rubs their head up against you or their favorite scratcher? They’re leaving behind those pheromones, Feliway puts those into the environment to help your cat feel calm. During any st...
Feliway Plug In
These are prime entertainment for indoor cats. You just suction them to the window and your cats can watch birds fly right up to eat. We sometimes even have squirrels in ours which the cats go absolutely crazy for
Window Bird Feeder
Health & Wellness
These are at home DNA tests for cats. They give you lots of fun info like breed makeup and even a wildcat index, but the health info makes it invaluable. They test for tons of different genetic markers and mutations linked to different diseases, amaz...
Basepaws Cat DNA Test | Breed, Health, Dental Diseases and Traits Reports
Cats need their teeth brushed just like humans. It’s estimated that up to 90% of cats will have some form of dental disease by age 4, which I think is partly because cat dental care isn’t common. These toothbrushes make it so easy to get in there and...
RYERCAT Dual Sided Kitten Toothbrush
Our absolute favorite cat toothpaste. Up to 90% of cats experience dental disease by age 4, good dental hygiene for them helps a ton. This is an enzymatic toothpaste that gets to work when it gets to their mouth, even just putting a little on the end...
Virbac CET Enzymatic Toothpaste - Bad Breath
Toys & Fun
This is one of THE COOLEST cat toys we have ever used and is a favorite of all three of my felines. It’s basically a little spinning motor that makes a string loop around and around with a toy (or multiple) attached. You can make it as big as you wan...
