I grew up more of a dog person, so getting Whenny was a whole new experience for me. I quickly realized that cats have their own preferences, routines, and very strong opinions about what they will and won't tolerate. 😂 If you're getting your first cat, I've put together the things I actually recommend, from food and water to litter box supplies, scratching, toys, grooming, and everyday comfort. One thing I learned quickly: don't buy everything at once. Cats can be surprisingly picky, so I'd start with the basics, see what your cat actually likes, and build from there.
