There are several ways to adopt a cat:

• Cattery adoption: Generally, cats adopted in the cattery are pet cats, the price is expensive, and some catteries are "cats of the week", if you mind that the cat is a breed of cat, you can adopt in the cattery, pay attention to choose a regular cattery adoption.
• In some cities, there is a cat market, you can go directly to some cat markets to buy, generally the cat market will be much cheaper than the cattery, all kinds of cats are available, and you can also bargain.
• Cats between friends can be adopted.
• If you don't mind the breed of cats, you can go to the rescue station to adopt, but the rescue station is generally stray cats, I advocate adoption instead of buying, and some stray cats are also very cute, very good-looking, stray cats become stray cats for a variety of reasons, some because they ran away from home and couldn't find a home; some because they were in heat and left home, they didn't want to go home or couldn't find a home, they wandered; some became stray cats because they were thrown away by others; some were born in the stray and other reasons。
• The most direct way is in the place where the stray cat is active, and if you see that one, you will directly take it home and raise it.

The above ways can adopt cats, do not mind the breed of cats, can directly adopt Chinese pastoral cats is also very good, and many Chinese pastoral cats are good-looking, docile, sticky, like orange cats are cute and cute, raccoon cats have cute personalities, cow cats sand sculptures amusement, white cats are sticky and cute, three-flower cats are docile, etc.

When you have a cat, the first thing you need to do is do the following:

1. Send it to the pet hospital first, let the pet hospital give it an examination, generally a routine examination, the examination in each city is different, like my city pet hospital will cut off its nails, detect feline plague, detect feline virus, cat moss and deworming, etc.
2. After the inspection, you can take it home, first put the cat out of the cat bag, it will be very scared when it just arrives in a strange environment, so give it some time to adapt, let it go around the house more, familiar with the home environment and taste, and if it allows you to touch it, you touch it, let it be familiar with the smell of your body; if it does not accept you, do not let you touch, then do not touch it reluctantly, otherwise it will lose both, you will be scratched by its cat's paws, to go to the rabies vaccine, it will be frightened, so that it may be stressed, so that the gains outweigh the losses。
3. If you want to bathe it, if you bathe the cat, it depends on the situation, some cats don't like to bathe, don't use hard, use soft, to avoid causing stress, if it likes to bathe it is the best.

The cat's daily necessities are very simple, you can prepare these:

1. Cat litter box, it is personally recommended to buy a large cat litter box, a large cat litter box can be used until it is an adult, unless you want to change it, if you are afraid that the kitten will not be able to enter the large cat litter box, you can give something in the cattery basin to raise it to let it into the litter box, or you can buy a small ladder online just enough for the kitten to jump into the litter box.
2. Cat litter shovel, this is a must, but now buy a cat litter box will send a cat litter shovel, this cat litter shovel is not particular, as long as you can shovel the poop on it, if you want the cat litter box in the clump is particularly small to shovel out, it is recommended to buy the kind of hole small and dense.
3. Cat litter, I believe that many novice cat owners will choose bentonite cat litter, because the price is cheap, and the water absorption is strong, this is the majority of cat owners will choose, but bentonite is a big disadvantage, that is, the dust is very large, outrageously large, and easy to be trampled by cats, some bentonite is still very sticky bottom, sticky to make you doubt life, and dusty cat litter will be easy for cats to get urinary diseases, when the time to see a doctor will be more expensive than cat litter; , some mineral sands can be seen by the naked eye and the camera without seeing the dust.
4. Cat rice bowl, water bowl, you can choose according to your like, now there are very styles of bowls on the market, this is not particular, if you are lazy like me to change the water for the cat, then you can arrange its own feeder and automatic drinking fountain, so that you can free your hands.
5. Cat food, this is the most important, if the choice of cat food is not good, quite to the cat to eat "chronic poison", there are several suggestions for choosing cat food: 10 yuan a pound of cat food below the choice of it, you think about the business also to make money, it is impossible to give you 10 yuan a pound of cat food also free shipping, send you cat snacks, it may not know what materials are used to make cat food, this cat food is not recommended to choose to buy; crude protein should be greater than 30%; The top five cat food is grain, don't buy, cats are carnivores, it is different from dogs, it is best to choose cat food with high meat content, cat food with clean ingredient list; don't choose attractants; don't choose puffed cat food if you can choose baked cats, baked cat food is more nutritious, baking process will retain the original nutrition of the ingredients, prevent nutrient loss; kittens should choose kitten cat food, kitten cat food will be more nutritious, and its particles are relatively small, suitable for kittens to chew, adult cats should choose adult cat food, adult cat food is specially designed for adult cats, it is recommended that cats under 12 months old choose kitten cat foodIf you don't know how to choose, you can search for cat food in a certain sound, and then click on the comments of the video under the cat food test video, see their evaluation of cat food and the cat food you choose to make a comprehensive comparison, you will know which cat food you want to choose.
6. Cat grass, this I personally recommend novice cats to plant, cats can help cats spit out, but some cats don't like to eat cat grass, you can arrange snacks containing cat grass to let it discharge.
7. Probiotics and feeders, this I personally think is more than to prepare, when the cat has soft stools or gastrointestinal discomfort, you can arrange a pack for it.
8. Cat Nest, Cat scratcher, cat nest is the place where the cat sleeps, when it is familiar with the place in your home, some cats like to sleep with the owner, that is, the bed, some cats also do not like to sleep with the owner, this depends on the cat's character; cat scratcher, I personally recommend that you must arrange one to it, cats are born to grind their claws, there is a cat scratching board to grind its paws, let it release pressure and sleep is also OK, if you don't give it a cat scratcher grinding claws, then it may grind the furniture at home, especially the sofa, wooden furniture, these places it likes to scratch the most, curtains it also likes to scratch。
9. Treats and toys, you can choose whether you need to buy them according to your cat's situation.

Vaccinations and deworming:

1. Three shots in the first year, and one shot every year after that.
2. Deworming once every three months, you can also deworm once every three months, once every six months in the inner area, deworming depends on the situation of your cat, if it is often free-range, it must be more than the number of deworming that does not go out.

Sterilization Issues:

1. If you want to breed, give it a mate.

2. If you don't do breeding, just do companionship, then sterilize it, non-sterilized cats may run away from home, or get physical diseases, noisy to you doubt life, there is an urge to let it "on the table".

Jobs to do after getting a cat:

1. Shoveling cat litter in the morning and evening, sweeping the floor, putting water, putting cat food, if you have automatic machines at home to help, you will not be so busy, such as: automatic cat litter shoveling machine, automatic feeder, automatic drinking fountain, sweeping robot, etc.
2. Buy cat food and cat litter regularly, don't wait until it's gone, buy it in advance.
3. To regularly deworm it, and bath, bathing can be three months or half a year to bathe once, some cats only once a year is no problem, depending on how dirty the cat is, after all, cats do not like to spray water, except for those who like to bathe.
4. Get vaccinated regularly, and if you can, you can get a check-up.
5. Comb it regularly, give it some fish oil and skin care, if you don't take care of this, you may see cat hair flying all over the house at home, especially in summer when the hair is dropped on the ground.

There are some habits you may have to get used to after getting a cat:

The cat is an animal that sleeps in the morning and wakes up at night, it will often parkour at night, it will wake you up on time at the door in the morning, and call you to doubt life when you don't get up; your kitten may be clingy to you until you doubt life, it will follow wherever you go, it is simply a mom meow; your kitten may like to call you up in the middle of the night to play with it, if you ignore it, it will keep barking, call until you wake up, and it will go away when it is okay. But these situations may change with the age of the cat, especially after the age of 3 cats, the character will become calmer, not noisy at night, you play with it on it, you don't accompany it quietly with you, before the age of 3 cats will be lively, playful, so cats are sometimes like a child.
