What materials should I have if I want to buy/adopt a cat?
What things should you get if you want to get a cat? You might want a cat, and you need to have the right materials before you get a new furry companion!
What things should you get if you want to get a cat? You might want a cat, and you want to have the right materials before you get a new furry companion!
A scratching post.
A cat dish. Don’t use a bowl, cats don’t like to feel their whiskers hitting the sides of the bowl.
A cat bed.
A good cat food brand(do not use dog food, cats won’t get what they need from dog food).
Cat toothbrush and toothpaste.
Cat brush(for their fur).
Cat toys! Lots of them, so your cat can have something to do!
A water dish(for your cat’s water).
A litter box(no perfumed litter, cat noses are sensitive).
Cat nail clippers.
A cat carrier/crate to bring your cat to the vet with.
Some other things you might want:
Cat costumes.
Cat nail caps(so if you get scratched by your cat, it won’t hurt).
Cat blankets or pillows.
A clicker(tool used to train cats).
A collar/ID tag(so your cat will be returned by someone if he/she gets lost, get the breakaway kind, so if you cat’s collar gets stuck on a branch, the collar will break away, instead of choking the cat).
Now, if you want a cat, you should go shopping for some of these items, because if you want to care for your cat properly, you will need to get some of these things!
Have a cool, crazy, and great day!

Cat holidays
What holidays can you celebrate with your feline friend? Please read this passage to find out!
Yes, International Box Day isn’t the only cat holiday to celebrate with your feline friend! Need some cat-related holidays to spend time with your cat(you can spend time with your cat every day, though:), or do you just want to celebrate something today? Anyway, read these holidays, and if they are not today, start planning!
National Hug Your Cat Day
Some people say it’s May 3, or May 30, but whatever the day, you can celebrate it! To be honest, you don’t have to wait for National Hug Your Cat Day to hug your cat, in fact, I think you should do it every day to show your cat that you care! Try not to get scratched or bitten…
National Cat Health Month, Pet Dental Health Month or Spay/Neuter Month
Wow! Cats get their own health month! Celebrate by-well, keeping healthy!
Adopt a Shelter Cat Month
June is the month of Adopt a Shelter Cat Month. I need not explain what the meaning of this holiday is, it is pretty obvious. Please get a shelter cat this June!
Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals Month
This holiday is in April. The ASPCA, American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, does fight for animal rights all year round, but in April they have the Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals Month. To celebrate this holiday you can participate in many different ways, from participating in campaigns and donating, to adopting a cat, spreading the word, going onto social media to participate, and more.
National Siamese Cat Day
This holiday is for those cat lovers who have a Siamese. It is on April 6. My cat Melody(below) is half-Siamese, and I am so sad I didn’t celebrate National Siamese Cat Day because I didn’t know about it, so please celebrate it when you can if you have a Siamese. Just chill out, you don’t have to prepare a huge party!
National Cat Day
National Cat Day first started in 2002. People tried to raise awareness about homeless cats. It is celebrated on August 8, but in Europe they celebrate it on the 17th of February. And, some people celebrate it on October 19.
International Box Day
I wrote a whole post on this holiday. Please read it for more info! International Box Day is on June 19, my birthday.
Happy Cat Month
This holiday is in September.
Make up your own holiday!
There is no Abyssinian holiday, or Ragdoll holiday, but you can make up one! Are you sad that your cat doesn’t get a holiday? Or do you just wanna celebrate something because…you want to! Either way, you can have your cozy little holiday at home!
Now, I can’t put all the cat holidays here, but I think I have put enough so that you can spend more time with your cat and celebrate that time spent together. I hope you have the purr-fect time celebrating all these cat holidays with your cat!
