Just Got a New Cat? Here’s What You’ll Actually Need Next

Let’s make sure they’re set up properly. These are the basics that make life easier for both of you (and save your furniture in the process).

Best Litter Box
Litter-Robot® 5
Best Water Fountain
Wireless Stainless Steel Pet Water Fountain BF25M
Best Starter Cat Tree
Frisco 61-in Faux Fur Cat Tree & Condo
Litter-Robot® 5
Wireless Stainless Steel Pet Water Fountain BF25M
Frisco 61-in Faux Fur Cat Tree & Condo
Why You Need It:
Let’s be honest, scooping a litter box gets old fast. The Litter-Robot 5 handles that for you by automatically separating waste after each use, so your cat always has a clean place to go (and you’re not on daily scoop duty). It’s especially nice in multi-cat homes or if you just don’t want your house smelling like…well, a litter box.
Why You Need It:
Most cats don’t drink enough water from a bowl, but a fountain changes that. The constant flow keeps water fresh and more appealing (apparently, still water is beneath them). This one’s stainless steel, which is easier to keep clean, and the wireless design means you can place it wherever your cat actually likes to hang out, not just near an outlet.
Why You Need It:
Cats need a place to climb, scratch, and quietly judge you from above. A good cat tree gives them all three. It also helps protect your furniture, since scratching posts are built in. If you want your new cat to settle in quickly (and leave your couch alone), this is one of those “buy it early” essentials.
