Are you thinking of getting a pet cat? Here are some things you might want to know. Some are common misconceptions.

Cats like milk, but it can make them sick. Some get a tummy ache, others get diarrhea. The additional calcium may cause urinary tract problems. Goat's milk is slighty better than cow's but water is just fine for cats.
Cats love tuna, but it is totally not natural for them and if canned for humans can make them very sick. If it has onions or garlic in the oils used for canning, this can even give cats anemia. Not to mention tuna is high in mercury.
If You have one cat you might want to have two litter boxes, one in another part of the house. If you have two cats you might want two, or three, litter boxes.
