Bringing home a kitten
Have you decided to purchase a Mein Coon kitten? Congratulations!
GETTING READY FOR THE ARRIVAL OF THE KITTEN IN A NEW HOME
A kitten will give you the joy of communication, a sea of positive emotions, your love and affection. He will be waiting for you at home, purring, curled up on your lap, playing with a ball or toy that you bought for him.
I hope that my baby care tips will help you avoid difficulties and live a long and happy life side by side with your pet.
Cat's are relatively easy to care for, as they have been living with people for more than a thousand years, and modern technologies will only make this process quicker and easier.
The optimal age for a kitten moving to a new home is about 12 weeks. At this age, the kitten already has two vaccinations, has become accustomed to the tray and is familiar with the scratching post. In the early days, place the kitten in a small quiet place, put water, food and a cat's toilet there. Your small family member needs time to get comfortable in their new home.

How to prepare
Ready checklist from the breeder.
⠀1. Food. Dry, wet, or natural - you choose. But in the beginning (1 or 2 months) only use what's recommended by the breeder. You can change it later, but slowly.
⠀2. Two bowls. One deep, heavy, ceramic for water, the second for food.
⠀3. The cat's toilet. It is best to use a covered tray. Cats, like humans, love comfort and convenience. Some individuals refuse to cope with observers. The tray should be spacious so that the cat does not have to leave it backwards. Set the tray in a quiet, peaceful place. And do not forget that access to the toilet should be 24/7.
⠀4. Filler. Another important attribute of happy coexistence. Buy the filler that the breeder uses or advises. The breeder is the last person in this world who wants the kitten to have an accident on the rug by the door.
⠀5. Scoop for cleaning the tray. No, this is not nonsense and not overkill. The choice of a scoop should not be thoughtlessly approached. Each type of filler has its own type of scoop. For example, for clay, you should choose a durable scoop.
⠀6. Claws. A scratching post (or play house) is a "must have". Without it, your furniture, in a matter of seconds, will change become a scratching posts.
⠀7. Carrying. Carrying should be convenient for both you and the cat. The main requirement is that the cat could lie in it. Comfortably lie down. And it must be closed.
