Hi everyone!
I am new to the forums and am very glad to come upon this as it has helped my research for my new baby coming home Nov. 17th. As I am NOT a new pet owner, it will be my first sphynx kitten and there have been so much to read up upon for this breed. Still reading up on what are some things I should purchase before her homecoming day and plenty of questions for my fellow sphynx mom/dad. Overall, she will be coming from Florida. Pretty stoked to add her to our full house of pets. Here are a few questions I have that would be MUCH appreciated if some would kindly help me.
1. Breeder is currently feeding her Instict raw bites. GREAT brand BUT eventually I want to switch her to dry Solid Gold. I've read that you can't mix raw and kibble due to digestion rates. How would I properly transition her OR what are your thoughts on feeding her dry?
2. I bathe all my pets (excluding my scottishfold) with Earthbath Aloe&Oatmeal shampoo. Is that a good shampoo for a sphynx or should I consider a different brand?
3. What are some possible necessities needed for my baby's homecoming? I already have the basic cat set up (cat litter, litter box, water fountain, scratching post, toys)
4. Heating wise. I've looked into thermo pet bed for times when we have to leave the house and she needs a space to stay warm. Does anyone have any experience with that or would you have any suggestions?
Thank you EVERYONE who've took their time to respond to my post. I look forward to meeting you and posting further pictures of my Raisin's homecoming!
