We will soon be bringing home the cat we have adopted from a shelter where we've been volunteering. It's been a very long time since I had a cat around. I was real good as a dog mom so...
She's a medium haired torti. How often should she be bathed, whether she wants to be or not? Any opinion on kitty shampoo and conditioner? I already know better than to brush wet fur but what about using a comb on it? Metal or plastic?
What's the best kind of litter to use? I'm willing to put in the extra work if there is a kind that won't cause her bladder infections. She's never had them, to my knowledge, and I'd rather spare her that annoyance.
Nails should be trimmed, what, once a week?
Is it true that an all dry food diet leads to kidney stones or some kind of kidney problem?
All advice welcome.
Thanks.
Prinny
