Congratulations on Your New Kitten!!

The time has come for you to prepare for your future fur baby! Many people ask me questions about what their kitten is eating, litter they are used to, toys, brushes, etc. So I created this page to help answer all those questions!

I've listed below some of the products I use and recommend to keep your new baby happy and comfortable!

I've also created an easy Amazon List for your shopping convenience! You can find it here:  https://www.amazon.com/shop/nwcoonies


My Trupanion Rep, Heather, put together this informative video on bringing home your new kitten. Please watch it for helpful tips!

Important!

Keep them on the same diet!

It is very important that you keep your kitten on the same food he/she is used to eating! A sudden change of diet can cause upset stomach and diarrhhea! Your new kitten will come with a sample bag of food (unless your kitten is flying - there is no room to send the kitten kit this way). You will also get an email sent to you with a recommendation of where to buy their food along with a 20% discount for it! If you don't see it, please check your spam and other folders. Feel free to ask what day I sent it to narrow your search.

If you would like to change their food, please intergrade the new food slowly over time and not abruptly. Using a probiotic with their new food will help with the transition. I leave dry out as a free feed and feed wet twice a day (Morning and night). I feed all flavors listed.
How much wet food should you feed your kitten?
I would offer them as much as they want to eat in one sitting. When they act uninterested, you will know they are full. Put it in the fridge for later. With each meal, you can get a better gage of how much your kitten will eat each sitting. You cannot overfeed a kitten, so feel free to feed them as often as they'd like to eat! They're growing and hungry!

***Do NOT free feed wet food, it will go bad and cause food poisoning! Wet food must be refrigerated after being opened.


It is not uncommon for your kitten's appetite to be lower or for them not to go potty for the first day or two after bringing them home. Moving homes is stressful for them. Once they become more comfortable, they will go back to their normal behaviors. Don't be alarmed if you don't see a bowel movement for a day or so. They will go when they need to.

Nutrition is so important!

What We Feed:

I leave dry food out as a free feed and feed wet food at least twice a day (morning and night). 


I will send an email with a 20% coupon for Royal Canin Kitten Dry food, so watch your email!
