1. NUTRITIOUS CAT FOOD 🐱🍽️
Feeding your cat a balanced diet is the absolute most crucial responsibility of a pet parent. Food is the foundation of maintaining health and preventing disease, disorders, and reduces the chance of injuries.
Making sure kitty gets all the nutrients kitty needs and no cheap fillers it doesn't need can be so tricky with marketing schemes these days, so I did a deep dive and chose to give my Cleo Blue Buffalo.
The closer a cat's diet reflects what it would naturally eat in the wild, the healthier your kitty will be - which is the foundation of Blue Buffalo's products. Check out my blog post Decoding Cat Food Nutrition Labels for a deep dive.

Automatic Water Fountain 💧
Not only can you check replenishing your kitty's water off you list for a few weeks, but this Automatic Water Fountain also encourages your cat to stay hydrated!
Cats are naturally drawn to running water; in the wild, running water is typically cleaner than standing water. Additionally, the sound triggers their instinct to drink.
I recommend putting it next to their food bowl - every time your cat inspects their food bowl (which is quite often), they'll be reminded to drink. This Automatic Water Fountain really helped my cat, who was severely dehydrated when I first got her! I instantly noticed her drinking more frequently and found more urine in her litter box! No more dehydrated kitty in my household!
The app keeps track of filter status, so you always know when it's time to switch it out - another check off your to-do list.
Self-Cleaning Litter Boxes 💩
Scooping out the litter box is one of the $h*ttier aspects of cat ownership (come on, that was purr-fect! Ok I'll stop).
You're supposed to clean the litter box twice a day, every day, for one cat, right? Twice a day, for twenty days. That's forty times you have to bend down, grab your mini poo shovel, and sift for treasure as wafts of ammonia go up your nostrils. And then get the vacuum out to soak up all the litter crumbs that inevitably escape into the floor. Every. Darn. Time.
Orrrrrr you can empty it once every 20(ish) days and check those other 39 times off your to-do list. Work smarter, not harder people.
Self-cleaning litter boxes literally do the dirty work for you. They automatically scoop and remove waste, leaving you with a fresh and odor-free environment for up to 20 days for one cat. Your kit will appreciate the cleanliness, and you'll appreciate the time saved.
3. ADVENTURE CAT STARTER PACK ⛰️ 🐱
Have you ever taken your indoor cat outdoors? Cats (and people!) are meant to spend ample time outside! It's so important for mental and physical stimulation and a great way to enjoy life with your cat outside the home.
Cat Harness & Leash
If you can walk a dog, why not walk a cat? Walks are so incredibly healthy - physically and mentally - for both you and your cat. Walking your cat requires a little bit of training, just like walking a dog does. Stay tuned to see my upcoming blog post on how to walk your cat!
I use the JVVGPET Cat Harness with Airtag Holder. The ability to attach an AirTag to my cat's harness adds peace of mind for me, since I literally have nightmares of her escaping and running away. Just in case the leash slips out of my fingers, I feel better knowing I can track her on my phone. Note: AirTag not included.
As someone who professionally studies and tracks bobcats, I can assure you that catching a runaway cat is no easy feat.
Cat Backpack 🎒
Carrying your cat on your back (or front!) is a great way to mentally stimulate your cat, especially if you're still harness training and kitty has been getting overstimulated by the outside world. 🌎
Plus it's a great way to take your BFF (best furry friend) with you on trips to the farmers market, outdoor restaurants, and hikes. There are soooo many great cat backpack options out there to chose from, but after my intensive comparison, I settled on one I love 💕
I'll admit it, obsessed with Texsens Pet Carrier Backpack
My first attraction to this bag was that the top is sloped with a mesh screen that opens, so I can easily see my cat if I wear the backpack in front. There is a leash inside to clip to her harness so she can’t jump out. 🐈
I also like that the Texsens Pet Carrier Backpack has a soft bottom so my cat is comfortable, but still firm so she doesn’t sag, and removable for easy cleaning. 🧼
The mesh windows allow for ultimate visibility (for your cat to see the world and for you to see your cat!) and breathability (to prevent overheating), but you can zip up the "curtains" if kitty needs a little privacy or if it's a little chilly out! 🪟
The chest strap and hip strap also allow more stability and comfort, especially useful when hiking. The pockets on both sides are perfectly sized for your phone, wallet, keys, and treats! 📱 🪪 🔑
4. TOYS, TREATS, CLAWS
I can't tell who is more excited about these toys, me or kitty!
Automatic Cat Laser 🐈⬛ 💨
In order to remain happy and healthy, cats need mental and physical stimulation doing activities that allow them to express their natural hunting behaviors.
Interactive cat toys, such as laser pointers, puzzle feeders, and electronic feather wands, can provide hours of entertainment for your feline friend, making playtime more engaging and preventing boredom.
My cat absolutely loves this Automatic Cat Laser! I suction-cupped it (that's a word, right?) to my kitchen counter and pointed it at the floor. Every hour and a half, the device shines a moving laser beam for ten minutes, giving kitty ample chances to practice hunting throughout the day - and night!
Silvervine Chew Sticks 🦷
Cats can clean and grind their teeth while eating silvervine chew sticks, which can effectively remove plaque and tartar, improve oral hygiene, and keep fresh breath.
This 5-pack of silverine chew sticks are rich in Actinidine and B-phenyl ethanol. This smell is very attractive to cats and can help cats relieve stress, make them energetic and happy. They are made from natural silver vine sticks without additives, so the chew toys for cats are healthy and safe. The gall fruit on the cat chew stick has a stronger taste and is more attractive to cats.
Wall-mounted, natural sisal cat scratching board
Set up this scratching post with a built-in self-grooming brush to keep your cat happy! The self-grooming reduces excess shedding. When your kitties massage themselves on the built-in brush, it stimualtes natural oil production for a shiney coat and for leaving their scent for other cats.
REPLACEABLE SISAL MAT - The large sisal cat scratching mat is removable and can be replaced when it is worn out. Remove and rotate the mat periodically to extend its use. Sisal is a natural fiber. It's safe and non toxic. You can also purchase just the SVD.PET sisal mats seperately.
MANY WAYS TO POSITION THE MAT - Place the mat in your cat's favorite scratching position - on the wall, on the floor, or on your furniture - so they scratch the post and not where they shouldn't. Some cats even enjoy sleeping on the scratcher! All the necessary tools are included: wall anchors, screws, double-side tapes and anti-slip tapes. The mat is light weight and super portable so you can put this scratching board anywhere.
PLAY & SCRATCH - Two toys are included in the package with the SVD.PET cat scratcher: A coil fuffy ball and a hanging feather. Switch between the toys to keep your cat entertained!
Snuffle Mat and Lick Pad
Kill two birds with one cat with this find!
The Femont Snuffle Mat comes with a silicone lick pad. Along with its 4.5 star review average (as of 11/7/2023) and price, it was a must for me. My cat's mind is stimulated which she searchs for treats hidden in the snuffle mat. The lick pad allows you to smear creamy textured treats on it and give your cat a different experience. You could also stick the lick pad in the freezer to turn it into cat ice cream! No chance kitty will be bored in this house!
Doorway Teaser Toy 🪶
Another find perfect for the busy cat parent! Living in a small apartment, I love that this toy doesn't take up a lot of space.
With a doorway teaser toy, your cat can play chase on its own. The retractable feature causes the toy to bounce - which mimics the natural behavior of a prey animal. It comes with 7 refill toys to last even longer! When you run through those, you can even order more.
Feather Wand with Floor Mount 🪶
Another feather toy coming at ya! I know my kitty is OB to the SESSED with feathers, so you know this is a must for me 🙈
Suction-cup this bad boy to your floor and watch your cat go nuts! Or don't, because kitty will be playing with this when you're at work or busy living your best life 💃🏻
CAT HOME FINDS 🐱 🏠
Litter box cabinet 🗄️
If the self-cleaning litter box isn't for you, that doesn't mean you have to settle for seeing your cats 💩 sit in a box. Incorporate it into your decor! I put mine right by my door to put stuff on when I get home 🤓
Pet Camera 🎥
Keep an eye on your cat even when you're not home with a home camera system and catch all the craziness that goes on behind your back!
Couch Cover 🛋️
Be proactive and protect your sofa from kitty claws before they have a chance to rip it up! Take it from me... I just bought an expensive new couch that I'm beyond excited about, but Cleo likes to sink her claws into it 😫
Chair Covers 🪑
By the same token, protect your island chairs from cat claws. Plus, it protects from other stains and mishaps and you can just throw it in the wash!
