Busy people need a pet that fits in with their lifestyle. They’re out at work all day and have a busy social life. They can’t always be around, which isn’t a problem with a cat. They’re independent creatures who are quite happy to do their own thing. They can leave all day if needs be. They’ll sleep, roam the neighbourhood and be perfectly happy until their owner gets back.

When people get a kitten they are taking on a big responsibility though. Cats still need some input from their owners. They might be low maintenance but they still have basic needs that must be met.

First things first, they are going to need somewhere warm and secure to sleep, so a proper bed is a must. Some owners like to fit their new pet with a collar. They can clip on an ID tag just in case their new friend gets lost and they can add a bell too. This will compromise their ability to hunt. No one wants to find a nasty surprise on the kitchen floor. And they need some toys too. They’re playful creatures and they love to jump, chase and catch things.

New owners need to find themselves a good local pet store. Here they find a great range of cat accessories. Everything they need for their new furry friend all under one roof. Having a pet for the first time can be a little bit daunting. With no previous experience to draw upon, it’s nice to know there’s some help, advice and support out there. A good pet shop has friendly, expert staff who are on hand to help new owners make sure their pet has everything it needs for a happy and healthy life. The right diet and the right accessories are essential to make sure they enjoy life every single day.
