Bringing Your Kitten Home

Please take a look at this helpful guide to what you'll need when bringing your kitten home! This guide is tailored specifically to our kittens. It includes a Necessities Checklist, info on Pet Insurance, Food & Supplies and helpful links on caring for your kitten after you bring them home.

Kittens do like to be with their person so sleeping in the room/bed with you initially should be the plan. When they mature their independence will vary. They may sleep in the next room, at the foot of your bed or snuggled up to you.

Pet Insurance

Necessities Checklist

Proof of Insurance is required to take a kitten home. I offer a code for TruPanion that covers them from Day 1 or you can search for others, though they may have a waiting period. I suggest coverage for at least 6 months but ultimately it’s up to you, the owner, past the introduction period. Please review your contract. Incidental acute illness or accident is not covered. Kittens can get an Upper Respiratory Infection (URI) or upset tummies during a stressful transition. It's impossible to predict how they will handle it as kittens are individuals. Best to be prepared!
