Thanx in advance:)

I love cats. I got a new kitten a few months ago and I'm now a kitten-care pro. So here's what you do:

For supplies, you are going to need kitty litter, a plastic box for a litter box (a baby wading tub or something like that), De-Odorizer so it doesn't stink the place up, and maybe a small cat toy to keep him amused. A great brand of cat food is Nutro Natural Choice for Kittens. It's got all the nourishment and vitamins for him to grow properly. Stay away from stuff like Meow Mix....that's just junk food.

Once you've gotten the kitty, keep him in an enclosed room where he can freely roam and explore, like the laundry room or the bathroom. Remove all large and objects that he could knock over, small pieces (beads, screws and the like) that he could choke on, or anything that you don't want broken. NO FISHBOWLS.

Prepare him a place to sleep with a small basket and a folded up towel. Go in the room every so often and play with him to keep him company.

Once he's been enclosed for about a week, let him out a little more so that he can explore the hallway. Bring him out every day for about a week. If you have other cats in the house, put the kitten under a laundry basket so the other cats can smell him.

Eventually, you can just let him run around the house. If he starts getting on the dinner table at dinner, you'll have to discipline him. Have a little squirt bottle with you....when he's on the dinner table, just squirt him and he'll fly away. Keep doing this until he starts avoiding the dinner table out of habit.

Here's a great site with loads of cat names:

Have fun with the kitten!!!!!
