It's about 40 hours, not that I'm counting till we collect Koko. He comes with his own litter tray, food etc and we are going to get a radiator bed, scratching post, collar and tag and bed for him tomorrow. I already have food and bowls etc but wondered if I'm missing anything or can anybody suggest something he might need? It's been 11 years since I had a kitten. He is 4 months old.

Of course I shall supply trust, love and cuddles a plenty myself too

You appear to have thought of the most important things Nat.......does a poop scoop come with the litter tray?

The only other thing I can think of is plenty of batteries on charge for the photos! ;):lol:

Sounds like everything is ready! I wouldn't go for litter tray liners myself- my lot just scratch them up so you clear away shredded plastic as well as litter. The less plastic we can chuck away the better too!

Lost of photos please- he looks a little sweetie!

I agree. you seem to have all the bases covered! I don't use plastic liners either, same reason as Cats'Staff. And we recently had a thread about things around the house toys as opposed to bought toys...I believe you read that one. Although a ping pong ball and a catnip mouse are always nice to have.....

I am so looking forward to the photos!

Do hope he settles in well. It will be strange for him at first, so go easy!

Straws, and inside of loo rolls and kitchen roll are a firm favourite here...

Mmm wasn't going to get any bought toys but see what he fancied from around the house but I think a cat nip mouse is in order.

Thanks for the tip on the liners. I never used them before but thought about them. Shall not bother.

I'm expecting him to cry all weekend for his mum and all his brothers and sisters, so we are staying home and having a nice relaxed weekend to settle him in. Might have to put Poppy in a straight jacket though?????

Thanks for the help as always

He might just surprise you, Nat! My little Siamese boy didn't seem to miss his family at all...went about the house happily exploring all the new things and smells, ate, used the litter box and went to sleep with me! :D

Aww that's so cute. He must have known what a wonderful new home he had and settled straight away.

I don't think he'll cry either.
Pedigrees leave the nest at a much later age than moggies and are well formed little feline people.
He'll soon get you licked into the shape he wants :roll:
