   Vacume:
We love the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser upright vacume!!
   Watering:
FRESH water in clean bowls.  Automatic recirculation water fountains are even recommended by vets, and we are witness that cats drink more, more often from them.   CATS MUST DRINK ENOUGH WATER! There are several brands/types available for order on the internet and at most all pet supply retailers near you. 
     High Quality Foods And Info About Pet Food

It is best to continue foods the breeder is feeding.  Our research recommends "Change brands or flavors of dry food every three to four months to avoid deficiencies or excesses of ingredients which may be problematic for your animal" and to help avoid some food allergies.

"Animal Protection Institute" article regarding selecting pet food http://www.bornfreeusa.org/articles.php?p=361&more=1 lengthy, but extremely informative.
 

We have plenty of high/premium quality food brands to suggest if you can not locate the ones we currently feed and, as you're ready to change a food every few months.  We do not feed foods with the words "byproduct (s)" or "corn" in the ingredient label, or foods that have what we consider to be too many fruits, grains, vegetables, hulls, seeds, cereals, fillers, glutens, that the feline system doesn't use...CATS ARE CARNIVORES AND THEIR SYSTEM "REQUIRES" MEAT IN SOME FORM!

 

We do not ever feed diet, lite, senior, or hairball type foods as those have MORE roughage/bulk/fillers, of no value to the feline system and harder on digestion, liver, kidneys.    It's felt feeding raw diets with canned processed cat foods could be the very best for cats.  We suggest feeding no more than 1/4 cup of dry kibble a day if you feel your cat just will not let go of dry kibble, and to feed canned/raw diets 2 times a day, and/or supplement canned with raw.

    String, Threads, Tinsel, etc, DANGEROUS:  The photo shows you why a cat can not back such things off their tongue and out of their mouth.  Their tongue is built like a sticky brush with tiny bristles laying backward toward the inside of their mouth, like teeth in a shark or snake.  Keep strings, threads and the likes picked up and out of a cat's reach.  The cat can't help but slurp these things until the entire item is swallowed, and you could be facing a serious expensive surgical procedure to remove it from the cat.  If you ever see such things hanging out of your cat's mouth, do not try to pull it out as you could harm the cat.  Take the cat to your vet immediately for help.

   Flea & Heart Worm Control For Kitty:
We use a flea Topical liquid drop put between shoulder blades.  It works, is easy, dries in seconds and very worth it!  "Revolution" brand is our 1st choice, because it controls many things besides fleas, like Heart Worm, see chart below.  You can order online for the lowest price and at places that do not require a prescription and can be mailed directly to your home.  See links to order on our page called "Parts Page 3"... next page.

Flea Control For Home:  THIS WORKS!.  If  you can do this knowing children and pets will not get into these.  Take the least expensive dog flea collars you can find, wear rubber gloves don't touch these!  Stretch them out, cut into 2 or 3-inch pieces and put them all over the inside of your home, between mattresses, behind and under dressers, inside the bath cabinet way in back, in closets up high and hidden or in corners, under furniture or attached to it so it can not be pulled loose, under kitchen sink in cabinet, etc.  You get the idea.  One piece per item.  Replace every three months.  This keeps out fleas, mites, spiders, and who knows what else.  You could also place the flea collar pieces up in the attic and in the garage too, even hidden in your vehicles. 

"RIDDEX Plug-In's" WORKS! Order online.

 
Outside Of Home:  Many people spread "Diaotimacious Earth" and yes it works!  You have to replace if it gets wet though.  You can also spray or sprinkle for bugs on the lower and upper edges/perimeter of the outside of your home with the onset of Fall and again Spring.   Before spraying, close up all windows and doors, leave closed for a day at least.  If you have animals outside, and/or your neighbors have animals in their homes and yards, we've read pests from those yards will come into your yard and eventually your home perimeter, garage, inside your home.  To help keep the neighbor's pests from invading your areas, spread pest control along your fence lines and edges of property lines.  There are bags of lawn pest control that control a huge number of different kinds of pests (including fleas, ticks, mites), easy to use, and you use little, and these are to be watered immediately after you apply them to get it into the ground.

   Bathing Kittens and Smaller Size Cats:

Three, 5-gallon buckets (or larger depending on the size of the cat), each filled with warm bathing water.  In Bucket #1 squirt shampoo into it and mix (does not take much shampoo at all).  Cats do not like anything squirted on them.  Buckets #2 and #3 fill with warm rinse water.  Water and a blow dryer that's too warm a temperature can cause the cat to blow it's coat (like an instant all-at-once shedding of entire coat). 

Lower kitty into the shampoo water, backend first and allow him/her to grasp the edge of the bucket with her claws as they hang inside.  Cats need to have some control over what is happening to them and this gives them a bit of security too.  Place one hand or wrist on the back of kitty's neck just to hold them in place, little pressure is necessary. 

When we saw this entire demonstration, the kitty actually relaxed.  Because the water has the shampoo in it, you need only to rub the water into the fur gently and quickly.  Use a small sponge or soft cloth on the head, face and ears.  This bath should be done quickly.  It does not take much to get them clean (usually). 

Hold kitty up out of the water so that you can gently ring out some of the water from them.  Place kitty into bucket #2 and rinse, repeat rinse again in bucket #3.  Towel dry them by gently squeezing water out of their fur.  If you use conditioner, now is the time to apply very little and then rinse very well.   Some may not mind being held under the faucet for a faster more powerful rinse as long as there is no hissing spraying noise coming from the faucet.

Now is a good time to give kitty a little rest and stretch time if your home/room is a temperature that won't cause them to get too chilled.  Then, Blow dry if necessary and to add fluff to the fur.  Blow dry temp is best and safest at luke warm to cool and in a room with the door closed to keep the chill off.  THAT'S IT!  We watched a kitten and a 4 month old golden retriever be bathed (in a double sink)  in less than 5 minutes with no mess!!  You don't need to take much time with an indoor only kitty.  We had to pass this on! 

Cats & Kittens are very fearful of the sound of water spraying/fast water pressure noise from a faucet and this bath method is a dream technique that works easily, very well, more relaxing for kitty and you both!!

In Salem, Oregon, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND "Cat Cottages" Kelly Stevens at 503-585-9802.  Home-like operation and atmosphere.  Very impressive!  Kelly is very dedicated and takes felines "only".  She has the best set up we've seen in person.
