Kitten Information
 It is always an exciting time around the house when kittens arrive. Kittens are born in a
private nursery off of our bedroom. They graduate to the kitten room where they start
eating kibble and wet foods. Also, this is where mom teaches them to use the litter box.
 Next, is the trip to the vet and their first shots. Once they have been vaccinated they
 have free run of the house. Bluestone kittens are given all the love they deserve and
 are never caged. At this time we welcome visitors by appointment but, ask that you
not visit another cattery on the same day. This is for the protection of our breeding
 cats and your future baby.

Going Home
 Kittens are usually ready to go to their new homes between 12-14 weeks. By this
time your kitten will have been:
Spayed or Neutered - Please do not ask you your kitten to leave unaltered.
Vet checked, dewormed and given age appropriate vaccinations.

Bluestone Ragdolls also provides:
Written Contract with a two year genetic guarantee
Blue slip registration with TICA and/or CFA
A kitten pack with food, toys, and coupons

or by photo. Your kitten will then be held for you until he/she is ready to go home.
Since we will no longer offer this kitten to any other individual, the deposit is
non-refundable.

Travel
Upon pick-up, you will need to bring a sturdy carrier to take your baby home. We
suggest purchasing a carrier that will hold up to 20 lbs. Your baby will not stay little
very long. A good carrier will be between $20.00 - $30.00 and can be found at
Petsmart. If you really want to spoil you kitten, there are plenty of trendy cat carriers
on the market.

Nutrition
 Your kitten's diet is crucial to its well being. We feed Felidae and and
Innova Evo available at Petsmart or Petco.
          

You may switch to any brand food you prefer, but if you choose to change brands,
do so gradually over a 1-2 week period. Dry food should be available at all times
during the day. You may also add canned food to their diet. We recommend using
ceramic or stainless steel bowls over plastic.

Water
 Research shows that one of the best ways to improve your kitten's health is to get
them to drink more water. We use and recommend the Drinkwell Pet Fountain.
Our cats love it. It is very simple to take apart and clean. Drinkwell may seem
expensive, especially over a dish, but it is definitely worth the benefits.
Drinkwell and accessories are available at Petsmart.

Litter and Litter Boxes
 Litter - The brands we use are World's Best and Swheat Scoop. These brands are safe
for kittens and adults. Our adults use Fresh Step. By the time kittens are 12 weeks old,
they are ready to use a full size litter box. There are many to choose from - corner boxes,
covered boxes and self-cleaning boxes. Kittens should not use self-cleaning boxes until
they are 20 weeks old.

Grooming
Routine is a must for a kitten to learn to accept grooming sessions. We recommend
you clip you kittens nails twice a month and provide you kitten with a scratching post.
Your furniture will appreciate it. You will also want to comb you kitten once a week
with a greyhound style comb. Ragdolls do no have an undercoat, so they rarely
mat and a once a week combing should be sufficient.

Cat Trees
 One thing you might want to purchase is a cat tree. Cat trees can be expensive, but
they are definitely worth it. Cats love them. A cat tree serves a couple of purposes.
Many cat trees have sissel, which can be used as a scratching post. Cats also love to
climb and love to take a cat nap on its perches. We highly recommend Great Lakes
