Kitten’s are very, very curious animals and will get into anything you leave out, including toilet paper.
1. All harmful chemicals, poisonous houseplants, and fragile items need to be stowed away where they cannot be ingested or broken.
2. Sewing supplies, such as needles and thread, can be dangerous if swallowed. Kitten may also drag them out and “forget” them on the carpet. Ouch! Keep them well out of reach.
3. Cords that dangle, like those from blinds, can be a potential strangulation hazard. Keep them tied up where kitten cannot reach.
4. Your garbage should be covered and put away where it cannot be ripped into.
5. NEVER NEVER NEVER!!!!! Leave your dryer door open. If it has been left open by mistake ALWAYS check the inside before closing it. Cats love dark, warm places to sleep and the dryer has a very horrible ending.
6. Keep cabinets and drawers closed. If your cat can open the cabinet, which mine can, install a child lock so it cannot be swung open. Towels don’t work well when they are covered in cat hair.
7. Tie drapes up until kitten knows to use their scratching post for any stretching.
8. Make sure electrical cords and wires are out of reach. They pose a risk of electric shock if kitten decides to chew on them.
