Raising a cat isn’t a very troublesome thing. I’ll go into details later. First, let me show you a photo of my cat Fugui when it was a kitten. They probably all look the same at that age, so cute.
A three – month – old blue cat should have no problem using the cat litter to poop and pee.
When you bring the kitten home, it’s best to clean the house thoroughly first. You surely don’t want the new – coming kitten to be sick or have parasites on its body.
You can feed the kitten either kitten food or all – life – stage cat food. Don’t skimp on cat food. Try to get the best one within your budget.
Regarding the cat’s drinking water, boiled water is fine. It’s best if the water can be kept flowing. I didn’t buy any devices for this at home. My cats just love to drink the water from my cup and don’t like the water in the bowl.
There’s no need for distilled water. Mineral water may cause kidney stones in cats, and tap water may have a problem with parasites. Don’t let them see dirty water, like the water in the toilet.
Don’t buy a too – large cat litter box. A lower – height one is better. Otherwise, the cat may have difficulty getting in and out of the litter box, which may lead to it pooping and peeing outside. When it grows up, you can upgrade its litter box as you like.
Scoop the cat litter frequently. You can leave a little of its poop and pee in the box to give it a signal that this is the toilet.
Place the cat litter box away from the areas where the cat plays or eats.
A three – month – old cat can already get vaccinated and dewormed. You must do these. Only after that can you bathe it. Vaccinations should be done once a year, and deworming should be done once every six months.
Spend more time playing with the cat to build a good relationship. You can use cat teaser wands, laser pointers, etc.
If the cat bites you, you can pretend to be in pain, and it will let go on its own. Cats are very considerate.
If the cat makes a mistake, grab it by the scruff of the neck, and it will stay still. This is what a mother cat would do.
Needless to say, you should prepare a cat scratching post. You can also buy some cat toys appropriately.
You can buy some nutritional hair – ball paste or cat grass. After all, blue cats have a lot of fur, so be careful of hair – ball syndrome.
In addition, you can also consider giving them lecithin and vitamin tablets.
When the cat is about nine months old, you can start thinking about neutering it. It’s better to have the cat neutered for its health. You can search on Baidu to find out why.
I also raised a blue cat as my first cat. I’ve learned all these things through my own experience and exchanges with many cat – raising friends around me.
If you have any other questions, you can private message me. Let’s communicate more.
Finally, my wish is that my cat can live a peaceful life.
I wish your kitten can also grow up healthily.
