The Ultimate Cat Care Guide
Welcome to the exciting journey of raising a happy, healthy cat! Whether you’re bringing home a playful kitten or caring for an adult cat, understanding their needs at every stage is essential.
Caring for Your New Kitten
Bringing a kitten home is a joyful experience, but it also comes with responsibility.
Kittens are full of energy and curiosity, and ensuring they grow strong and healthy requires proper care from the start.
Your kitten requires vet visits, a balanced diet, socialization and play to ensure a happy healthy life.

What to Expect
As kittens grow, their needs change. Here’s a quick breakdown:
- 0-8 Weeks: Kittens stay close to their mother. If hand-raising, they require bottle feeding and warmth.
- 8-12 Weeks: Transition to solid food and regular playtime. This is a great time for first vaccinations.
- 3-6 Months: Teething begins, and their personalities emerge. Keep up with socialization and health checks.
- 6-12 Months: Entering adolescence, they may test boundaries. Spaying or neutering by this stage helps reduce aggressive behavior and wandering.
For more information about spaying and neutering, visit our Spay & Neuter Services.

Adult Cat Care
Adult cats are more independent but still require regular care to ensure long, healthy lives.
Bi-annual Check-Ups
Regular vet visits help detect and prevent health issues early.
Weight Care
Feed an age-appropriate diet and consistently monitor their weight.
Dental Care
Dental cleanings and at-home care prevent dental disease.
Parasite Control
Flea and tick prevention is essential for both indoor and outdoor cats.
Senior Cat Care
As cats age, they tend to slow down and require more focused care to maintain their health and comfort. Senior cats are more prone to age-related issues such as arthritis, dental disease, and reduced mobility. Providing them with regular check-ups, a stress-free environment, and targeted health support can make a significant difference in their quality of life.
Vet Visits: Twice-yearly check-ups detect issues early.
Comfort: Provide soft bedding and quiet spaces.
Joint Support: Use supplements to ease mobility.
