Based on the editor’s many years of experience in raising cats, I have summarized some must-have items for raising cats, as well as some relatively useless furnishings. I hope that after reading this, you can help everyone spend less "wasted money"!< /p>

Cat essentials:

1. Food bowls and water bowls: These are tools for cats to eat and drink water. Of course they are essential! It is best to buy stainless steel, glass or ceramic ones, not plastic ones.

ps: If you cannot feed your cat at home every day, it is recommended to buy an automatic one. The cat’s water must be changed every day, and the food bowl must be cleaned every day to avoid the growth of bacteria. Do not give your cat raw water, as it can easily cause kidney stones. It is best to drink boiled water that has been cooled.

2. Cat litter box: Buy a litter box that is spacious and allows the cat to turn around. It is best to be semi-enclosed so that it is not easy to take out the cat litter.

3. Cat litter: It is recommended to buy tofu cat litter. It is cheap and has good clumping properties. The main advantage is that it can completely flush the toilet, saving you the trouble of throwing away garbage.

4. Cat scratching board: It costs more than ten yuan each. It is convenient for cats to sharpen their claws, otherwise the furniture will suffer.

5. Cat teasing stick: It is a magical tool for teasing cats. If you want to interact and play with cats, it is better to buy a cat teasing stick.

6. Comb: Cats need to be combed every day. It is recommended that you buy a comb at home to keep the cat’s hair clean and tidy.

7. Hair stick and vacuum cleaner: Use a hair stick to remove cat hair on beds and clothes, and use a vacuum cleaner to remove floating hair on the ground.

8. Nail clippers: Cat’s nails must be clipped at least once a month, otherwise the cat’s nails may scratch people or the furniture may be damaged.

9. Deworming medicine: once every six months if you don’t go out indoors, once a month if you go out.

10. Probiotics: Cats often suffer from vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, etc. It is also good to prepare some probiotics at home. We recommend Xiaopet Probiotics and Miaoxiu Probiotics.

11. Snacks: Occasionally, you need to reward your cat with some small snacks. This can be said to be a good way to win the cat's heart.

It is best to choose some functional and nutritious snacks, which are healthier. Regarding how to choose snacks for cats, I will not go into the description here. Interested pet owners can read related articles:

12. Canned food: Cats may be nutritionally unbalanced if they eat cat food alone. They can be fed with some canned staple foods, such as K9 and canned food.

13. Cat food: Cat food is the staple food of cats. You must choose a high-quality and healthy natural food. Try to choose one with a protein content between 33% and 48%. The first five ingredients in the formula are preferably meat. class, proofMainly animal protein.

Friends with budget can choose imported cat food: Desire, Aikenna, Jinsu Ligao, now.

Cats are not necessary

1. Cat climbing frame: The utilization rate is low, the price is expensive, and it takes up space. Some cats don’t like to play with the cat climbing frame. It is better for pet owners to let the cats jump around at home.

2. Cat litter: Many cats don’t like to sleep in cat litter. They prefer to sleep on their owner’s bed. Many times, cat litter is just a decoration.

3. Hair-reducing cream: Hair-reducing cream only increases gastrointestinal motility and promotes the discharge of hair. Some cats don’t like to eat it, so it’s better to plant some cat grass, which has no side effects on cats and is very cheap.

4. Cat nutritional products: Many cat vitamin tablets and lecithin are IQ-taxed. Cats may not like to eat them, or they may not be of much use after eating them. It is better for pet owners to replace them with food, which is healthier.

5. Cat accessories: Cats don’t like clothes, bells, etc. Cats feel tethered and will show irritability.
