      1 essential for cats of any size... freedom to run outside.

      @@richfarley8122 So millions of folks who live in high rises should give up their cats or buy a home? Just how fair is your statement? I am literally crying thinking my new cat will hate me because she can't go outside. Gee, thanks alot. I'm kinda outdone here. *FYI...What you are saying is simply not true, go research, it's just how you feel.

      @ceciliaquintero2396 it's a cat, it kills and eats wild things... you really think wild cats worry about good gum health and clean breath?

      @ quite literally yes dogs too need their teeth brushed it’s called cavities if you want your cats teeth rotted that’s all up to you. Literally just look it up and do your basic research for the care of your animals.

    Also to add... Wand toys and interactive play is the best way to bond and give them prey hunt play at the same time 😊

    If your going to do a automatic ltter box the one you recommend is best quality. Sensirs can wear out and unalive your cat . Its the cheaper ones . Hooded and hidden boxescare not preferable to most cats especially if you have multiple cats because they wouldn't want to be trapped..imho i do not agree with the 2 litter box for every cat not always a necessity.. however better safe than sorry and if you're having behavioral issues. Its a good bet to try that rule number.. just giving my experience from an owner of 21 cats 😮 great video and good info for new owners

    Tip: leave something that smells like you in the carrier so they're comforted. Less anxious otw to/from vet

    My cats do not drink water. They re on wet food. We bought them small glass bowls in Ikea, they were like 50 cents and we put them in dish washer. We change them after each meal

    Great list! Maybe get them a selection of kitty treats to see what they may like! Cats like some variety in their diet. Though not essential, they will love you for it.😄

    Don't like to see promotions for robo litter cleaners. They've caused cat deaths. The knockoffs and the real brand. Be careful and understand you take care of your cat so they can take care of you. Never heard of tofu litter. Might have to try it

    You are making taking care of multiple cats as if has to be very luxirious and time consuming and expensive in a huge home. 1 of that for each + 1, 1 of this for each + 1. Nope. They like to shit into the same litterboxes one after the other, scratch same shits and sleep together.

      What I describe here is not necessary or even possible for some people. I am fully aware of this. I am describing an ideal situation for raising a cat AND this is also what veterinarians and cat behaviorists recommend. I am simply passing on the information. You do not have to do anything I say if you do not want to. A loving home that meets the basic needs is ALWAYS better than no home at all. This is obvious and I did not think it needed to be said.
