Kittens will be with us in approximately 3 weeks time, they will be approximately 10 weeks old by then (exact date of birth not known by rescue centre). They will come to us de-flea (sp?), litter trained, weaned and wormed. When they are old enough we will take them back to rescue to be vaccinated and then at 5 months we will micro chip and neuter them (one boy one girl).
They will come home on Royal Canin so will stock up on that.
I work part time, term time only, so I will have a lot of time with them, but inevitably they will have to spend some time by themselves. Kind NDneighbour will have key and will keep a close eye on them.
I will kitten proof their space, visit from rescue next week will help me establish best area, but prob kitchen and access to downstairs toilet.
What is the best online shop to get all the essentials such as cat beds, water fountain, feeding bowls, cat tree etc etc. Or should I just use Amazon?
They will be indoor cats until they have their vaccinations. After that I am thinking, definitely indoor at night. As for day time, they will probably have the whole of downstairs minus one room and a catflap into the garden.
What does everyone think of something like this? www.ideas4pets.co.uk/kittykat-cat-kennel-047?cPath=0_743&gclid=Cj0KEQjw7LS6BRDo2Iz23au25OQBEiQAQa6hwDJRN6ua-5sFODI0WSQDKCDkSk09Fwjq6kQxYz597jAaAshh8P8HAQ
