    We have a Tigga tower,specially designed & built by a MC owner & although outlay pretty high over a couple of years down the line all is as good as day 1 but there are some clever people on here who have built their own,just try "cat tower" in the search box at the top of the page & see what comes up,with cat litter we used to have a fairly expensive one from zooplus but with the three cats found it worked out cheaper in the long run than those that cost less but since the numbers of cats have risen we now use the chick crumb & layers pellet route which works out a lot cheeper {sorry meant cheaper ...!} & surprisingly doesn't smell any different to when we were using the scented litter,you just need a bit of shed room though to store the big sacks....x

    Re litter, we used pellets when they were little as smaller litter stuck to their trousers when they had runny tums :-( Now we use a mix of supermarket brand litter and pellets ... but I'm out of touch and don't really know what's available in the UK now.

    We also have a Tigga Tower and I would (again!) totally agree with Jackie re the quality & stability. Our original tree lasted a year before it swayed in the MC wind when leapt upon!! Unfortunately my OH is NOT a DIY person or perhaps we may have considered building our own ... but there are brilliant pictures of some fantastic home built trees on here.

    Re scratching posts ... we had a normal size one plus this one

    They loved the size and height as kittens and used to climb to the top and sit there admiring the view! Now it's just a lovely strong scratching post!

    A Must Have we found (after mopping up numerous lakes!) is a water bowl that doesn't get pushed across the floor or tipped over! Our current ones are stainless steel with a rubber rim around the base ... still foils them when they try to have a bath!

    Happy shopping!!

    Your silver tabby baby is gorgeous. This little baby is absolutely adorable too. Makes me wish I had room for more than three cats as I'd love a blue .....
    It's such an exciting time when you're waiting for kittens - the days pass so slowly.... Enjoy

    They are so cute! Before you know it they'll be home with you. Don't forget to get a lot of toys. Kitten safe toys they can chew on, balls for them to chase & roll around, & things on string that you can flip around for them to chase and jump at (my guy loves Da bird). We use the wood pellets for litter. We actually buy the pellets they are used for horse bedding as we can get a larger bag for a lot less money then items marked cat litter.

    Can't wait to read the stories of their adventures once they come home!

    Lovely photos of your new babies.

    We have three Catit trays, which all the cats, and our kittens, are happy to use. The advantage is that the flap and the top section lift up so you can have the tray open or closed without removing the whole top section, leaving it down holds in the odour. Its easy to access and scoop without dismantling, and the cats seem to enjoy being inside too.
