Flea Brush (Just incase, not too expensive)

From the vet you'll need flea treatments (Advantage, Frontline or Revolution) and a Worming treatment as well - Don't buy over the counter medicines

Hmmm...Thats all I can think of for now!

But don't forget you'll also need to budget for vaccinations (at 6 weeks, 10 weeks and 16 weeks) and desexing (at around 6 months) and microchipping (if not already done when you get your kitty)

Desexing is when they either take the testicles out of a male cat or the ovaries from a female cat - This is to prevent them having any offspring.

All kitten need vaccinations when they are babies - At 6 week, 10 weeks and 14 weeks, and then every year after that - There are lots of nasty diseases out there that kitties can catch, and it is much easier to just get them vaccinated.
