Of course you want to take good care of your cat. You give the animal lots of love and attention. In addition, it is important that you always have the necessary items in the house for your sweet pet. It is better to have a stock of some items. Think of all of this!

Litter box

Does your cat do its business indoors? Or do you want to offer your cat the option of doing it indoors, even if the animal can go outside? Then you will of course need a good litter box. You can think of several options. A simple box is sufficient in principle, but of course does not keep out the unpleasant odours that well. That is why a closed box is preferred. It may take some time for your cat to get used to going there, but usually that will be fine. In any case, place the litter box in a sheltered place so that the cat has privacy there. And of course keep the box clean! It is best to remove the remains every day with a scoop. And once a week you empty the entire box, clean it thoroughly and refill it. So you always want to have cat litter in stock, for this weekly task. And if your cat has not been feeling well, for example, it may be necessary to clean the box extra. So make sure you have enough litter in the house to do that job.

Feed

You want to provide your cat with tasty food every day. And skipping meals is not really an option. Cats are often very attached to a fixed eating rhythm. That is why you have the responsibility to have the right food in the house. Purina ONE cat food can be found for the different life stages of your cat. From kitten to senior: you adjust it depending on the life stage the animal is in. Your cat gets all the important nutrients, vitamins and minerals from the food, in which kibble forms the basis. And that is necessary to keep your cat healthy, but also to keep your cat active! In addition to kibble, you can also give your cat wet food, which many cats love. Sometimes it is necessary to choose special food for your cat. Perhaps your cat has kidney problems, to name a well-known complaint. By adjusting the food accordingly, your cat will stay healthy. A vet can advise you on this.

Snacks

You can spoil your cat with a snack, in addition to the food you give. Of course, you don't give this extra too often, but in moderation it is okay. See it as a real treat for your cat! Cat snacks often come in a special stick, which you can feed to your cat. If your cat has to watch its weight, it is not always advisable to give a snack. But once your cat is used to getting it, it is of course difficult to reduce it again. So think carefully about that first.

Toys

Although not every cat is up for it, many cats enjoy playing. So make sure you have some toys in the house. The best strategy? Don't give all the cat toys at the same time, because then your cat will get bored of them. Instead, keep all the toys in the cupboard and always bring out one or two. By alternating this, your cat will continue to find the toys more interesting. But unfortunately, it can also be the case that your cat doesn't pay much attention to them. This is sometimes the case with outdoor cats, for example, who already have enough adventures outside. They would rather relax inside! Also completely understandable of course.

Care

Finally, you can think of care products to always have at home for your cat. This depends on the breed, among other things. For example, you want to brush long-haired cats every few days to keep their coat nice. You can use special brushes for this. With a sponge or cloth you can keep your cat's coat and skin clean. This may be necessary if your cat has a wound. You can also find special products for the ears and teeth. Only use this if it is actually necessary. The vet can also take a look at this.

All in all, you need quite a few products for your cat. That's fine, of course, as long as you know what you need to have in stock. From food to care!
