How to create a budget-friendly cat room setup for cats and a dog?
Hi, in terms of cat furniture don’t worry cats don’t need anything particularly fancy. They enjoy sitting on a shelf as in the picture and look outside the window. You would add some cardboard boxes that can also work as cratching posts and a couple of pillow on the bookshelf. I think the feeding area would better be moved, because being right in front of the windows is exposed, they can see/be seen and could spot something that might upset them. It is also advisable to keep feeding areas away from their litter tray and perhaps moving it would help increasing this distance. Are there only two cats in the room ? If so also consider the number of litter trays. I mo not sure how many you have at present, and if things work out well I probably would suggest not to change them. You can find lots of ideas in building/creating cat furniture from ikea furniture if you fancy a change in the future. Also cats will need to be active and interact with you so make sure you consider this in your routine. Hope this helps ! Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach

Why is my sensitive cat throwing litter, blankets, and spilling water?
Usually a behavior change like this is related to stress. Any changes or stressors in the house lately? Guests for the holidays? You traveled and left her while you were out of town? You just moved? New pets? Stray cats hanging out around outside the house? Regardless, I would try to use a product to decrease stress and do some environmental enrichment for her. This is the best product to decrease stress and calm cats - Feliway. https://www.feliway.com/us#redirected https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/comfort-zone-diffuser-with-feliway-for-cats Here is an article on environmental enrichment for cats: http://www.catbehaviorassociates.com/what-is-environmental-enrichment-and-why-does-your-cat-need-it/ Hope this helps.

My 22lb cat needs a strong window seat. What's the best one?
I don't know if this is what you are looking for but here is an amazon link that provides a few different options. https://www.amazon.com/cat-window-seats/s?ie=UTF8&page=1&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Acat%20window%20seats Since your one cat is 22lbs you may need to secure a window seat a little more because of the weight. I would think about getting a cat tower for in front of the window. You can do something like the: https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Activity-Scratching-Posts-Medium/dp/B017WXWZ6Y/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1511407650&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=cat+tower&psc=1 I hope this helps and thank you for using PetCoach!

First-time kitten owner? What essential supplies should I buy?
It's great that you want to be prepared for your new kitten! Aside from the obvious things for the kitten like food and water bowls, I'd recommend a tall scratching post and perch. Two litter boxes in different areas of the house are recommended. Canned kitten food (and canned adult cat food as Myla gets older) is preferred over dry food. This article may also be very helpful to you: https://www.petcoach.co/article/new-kitten-101/ Thanks for using PetCoach! Good luck with your new kitten!
