Advice First time cat owner

Post image

Hey guys, I just got a cat yesterday and it’s my first time owning a pet in general. When i brought it in my house yesterday, dude was a lil scared I think cuz of the environment and went under my couch a couple of times. So I moved him to my laundry room, just to get him in one small room so he wouldn’t escape or freak out.

This morning I checked in on him and he’s doing better and cuddling with me.

Just wanna say I’ll appreciate any advice as a first time cat owner

  1. They have nipples
  2. The bald-looking spot by the ears is normal
  3. They twitch in their sleep because of dreaming
  4. Lillys (the flower) are extremely toxic and fatal
  5. Onion and garlic cause kidney failure so think about not letting them eat anything with that in it.

Hmmm there are probably a lot I am missing
