Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend Life’s Abundance dry cat food. If you would like to order it, contact us and we can help you get started. For wet food, we recommend Fancy Feast or Royal Canin. If you decide to change your kitten’s dry food, make the transition gradually by mixing the new food with the current food rather than changing it suddenly.

We recommend providing fresh, good-quality filtered or bottled water and making sure your kitten has easy access to clean drinking water throughout the day.

Start your kitten in a small, quiet room such as a bathroom or laundry room with easy access to food, water and a litter box. Show them the litter box several times during the first few days, spend time with them as they adjust and monitor that they are eating and drinking normally. If your kitten is not eating or drinking or you are concerned about their health, contact your veterinarian.
