For most cat owners, one of the biggest drawbacks of owning a cat is the dreaded cat litter box. Few people like to clean litter boxes. After all, they aren’t just smelly. Litter can be quite dusty and people that change litter boxes are more susceptible to some cat diseases that can be caught by humans than people that do not change their cats’ litter boxes.

Luckily, there are several new litter box designs that make the task of changing cat litter much easier. One popular design is the hooded litter box. These boxes provide privacy for more sensitive cats, but they also help keep down litter dust. The hooded box is ideal for a single cat, as long as the cat’s owners can change the box frequently to keep it smelling clean and fresh. For people who don’t want to handle the soiled litter, there are removable liners for these boxes. Simply lift out the whole liner filled with soiled litter and discard it. Lay down a new liner, add fresh cat litter, and replace the lid.

Persians need toys that they can chase, toys that they can chew, and toys that they can bat. They also require climbing and scratching opportunities. Again, if you don’t provide these things, they will use objects in your home to make up for your lack of provisions.

Well the first question really is, where are you going to put it?  If you’re talking about kitty as an 8 week old furry babe who’s just arrived in your home, then probably you don’t need one yet.  The purpose of an ID tag is to help to identify your cat should it go missing, and as your new kitty shouldn’t be going outside just yet, then it doesn’t really need an ID tag – plus you’re also going to have to find somewhere to put it because 8 week old kittens are a little bit small to wear a collar!
