Ragdoll Kitten Supplies

Below are the products that we personally use (and love) for our Ragdoll kittens and cats! We recommend keeping as many items as possible the same for your new kitten, especially the food, some of the treats and litter. Having items that your kitten is already familiar with will help make their transition into your home easier and a little less intimidating.

Your kitten is currently eating the following wet and dry foods. Please keep your kitten on this diet for at least the first 2-3 weeks in their new home to avoid digestive issues. After the initial few weeks, you can then slowly transition or add to their diet.

Tiny Tiger Turkey Recipe

Our kittens are fed wet food twice per day. We are currently feeding Chewy’s brand “Tiny Tiger”. We love that the #1 ingredient is real meat and that there is no added grain, wheat, corn or soy. We feed both the chicken and turkey recipes.

IAMs Kitten

We leave dry food out for our kittens to free feed from during the day. We feed a 50/50 mix of IAMs Kitten + IAMs Hairball. We like this combination because the Hairball Formula has high fiber content, which promotes nice digestion during weaning.

Whole food treats and meal toppers are an excellent way to add more protein and nutrition into your kittens’s diet. They also help keep meal-time fun and exciting! Here are some of our favorite treats and meal toppers:

Freeze Dried Chicken

The only ingredient is chicken and the kitties love them!

Stella & Chewy’s Freeze-Dried Raw

One of our favorite meal toppers for wet food!

Freeze-Dried Chicken Hearts

Hearts are an excellent source of taurine for your kitty.

Freeze-Dried Minnows

Minnows are an excellent source of omegas for your kitty.

 

Freeze-Dried Duck Liver

Liver is an excellent source of many important nutrients for your kitty.

Freeze-Dried Rabbit Bites

A crunchy and delicious meal topper/treat!

Freeze-Dried Quail Egg Yolk

Another favorite meal topper! Quail eggs are a kitty super food and also contain lecithin, which helps prevent hairballs.

Freeze-Dried Duck

The only ingredient is duck and the kitties love them!

 

Pet Carrier

Please bring a pet carrier for your kitten to travel home in. I use this carrier to transport my cats and kittens. If traveling by plane, be sure to check the carrier size dimensions allowed by your airline.

Cat Tree/Condo

I recommend looking around for a cat tree that you like. Click here for a link to some of our favorite cat condos.

Scratching Post

It is really important to have enough scrathing posts throughout your home. This tall scratcher is a great option. We keep this one next to our couch.

Scratchers

You truly can never have enough scratchers. My cats really enjoy this cute scratcher that also doubles as a bed.

 

Litter Box

Once old enough, all of our cats and kittens use jumbo-sized Catit Litter Boxes. They are priced well and large enough for full grown Ragdolls to use.

Litter

We prefer using unscented clay litter. Our kittens transition to using clay at about 8 weeks old. This one has great odor control and is priced well. We also like FreshStep, but that one is frequently sold out.

Litter Scoop

Make sure to also pick up a litter scoop for your new kitten! Any litter scoop should do. This is the one we use. It is nice quality and easy to sanitize.

Litter Mat

A litter mat helps prevent your Ragdoll from tracking litter through your home. This is a nice and simple litter mat that we use. The XL size fits perfectly under our Jumbo Catit Litterboxes.

 

FERA Pet Probiotic

This is our favorite feline probiotic. It can be sprinkled onto wet or dry food. It helps keep stools firmer and less smelly.

Check with your veterinarian to see if this supplement is right for your cat or kitten.

Jarrow Probiotic

This is another one of our favorite probiotics that can be used for cats. We sprinkle ½ - 1 capsule onto their food daily in addition to the FERA probiotic.

Check with your veterinarian to see if this supplement is right for your cat or kitten.

Immune Support

We love this supplement that was recommended to us by our veterinarian. It helps maintain a healthy immune system, especially during periods of stress.

Check with your veterinarian to see if this supplement is right for your cat or kitten.

Nail Clippers

We trim our cats’ nails regularly (typically every other week). These are our favorite nail clippers.

 

Food + Water Bowls

We recommend using elevated bowls to reduce your cat’s neck strain while eating.

Silicone Mat

We keep a silicone mat underneath our food bowls and water fountain. It collects spilled food or water and can easily be cleaned.

Water Fountain

A water fountain will encourage your kitten to drink more since cats prefer running water. This specific water fountain is our favorite since it’s wireless (so the kittens can’t chew on the cord).

Replacement Water Filters

If you purchase the water fountain, make sure to replace the filter every few weeks. We always have a few of these on hand.

 

Cat Shampoo

Cats should only be bathed when visibly dirty or oily. This is our favorite cat shampoo for occasional bath time. It does an excellent job of cleaning the coat while still being gentle on their skin.

De-Greaser

Some Ragdolls (not all) are prone to occasionally getting greasy on the base of their tail and their back. When needed, we apply this paste to the greasy area a few minutes before bathing them as normal.

Butter Comb

We prefer a metal butter comb instead of a brush for regularly combing our Ragdolls’ coats.

Pet Cameras

We have a few of these cameras throughout our home. They work great and do not require a monthly subscription fee. Being able to check on the kitties while I’m out of the house gives me peace of mind.

 

Vacuum

This cordless Dyson vacuum has been a great investment. We use it daily and it makes a huge difference in the amount of cat hair around the house. Although expensive, we can’t recommend it enough.

Pet Hair Remover (Furniture)

We use this gadget for removing pet hair from our furniture, especially our couch. It does an amazing job at picking up loose hair.

Pet Hair Remover (Clothing)

These sticky rollers are a must if you own any animal that sheds. We keep multiple throughout our home and in our car.

Clear Furniture Protectors

Our cats do not scratch our furniture since we have so many scratchers around our home for them. However, we do use these simply as a precaution on the corners of our couch and they blend right in.

 

All-Purpose Cleaner

We do not use traditional cleaning brands, like Clorox or Lysol, in our home. They are harmful to cats. Branch Basics is our preferred every-day cleaning product for around our home and in the cat areas.

Disinfectant

For deep cleaning of the cat areas and litter boxes, we use this veterinary-grade disinfectant. It is hydrogen peroxide based and nontoxic to cats. You can buy it in wipe or liquid form.

Odor Removing Gel

We keep a Kanberra air purifying gel in each of our cat rooms, next to the litter boxes. They are made with Tea Tree Essential Oil and really help to absorb odor.

Air Purifier

This is our favorite HEPA air purifier. We keep these in the cat areas and throughout our home to cut down on litter box dust and odor.

 

And of course, toys are a must! The following are some of our favorite toys:

Amazon, Chewy, PetSmart, Petco and Target are all great places to look for fun cat toys.

Kitten Ball Tower

This fun ball tower can keep the kittens (and adult cats) entertained for hours!

Springs

My cats and kittens love playing fetch and chasing these springs! They are a definite favorite.

Cat Teaser

You can never have enough teaser toys! This sparkler teaser wand is a popular teaser at our house.

Cat Teaser

This is another awesome teaser that my kittens really love to play with!

 

Cat Tunnel

Tunnels are another favorite toy!

YEOWWW! Catnip Toy

This is a popular toy that is filled with catnip. My cats absolutely love it!

Crinkle Balls

Mylar Crinkle Balls are another favorite!

Ping Pong Balls

Ping Pong balls are an inexpensive and fun toy!
