Maine Coon Kitten's Favorite Things

---

Maine Coons are big cats and adults will not fit in a standard cat carrier. In addition to their size, they are strong and really need a carrier with hard construction or a steel frame. We love this carrier for its perfect blend of a sturdy but collapsible frame, canvas sides, and plenty of meshes and zipper entrances for good ventilation and easy access from any angle. We also like the padded shoulder straps and convenient carrying handles. We consider this an essential when it comes to Maine Coon supplies!

Maine Coons prefer to drink fresh running water, and it's better for their kidneys, too. Our cats love this fountain, which holds a lot, is easy to clean, runs quietly and doesn't bother their sensitive whiskers. It may not be the first thing you think of when it comes to Maine Coon supplies, but it is the best water fountain for Maine Coon cats and kittens we have found!

We'll get to Maine Coon toys soon, but for now, let's talk about the fact that Maine Coons are as big as many dogs! These elevated bowls are both comfortable and good for their digestion. Plus, the cool design keeps all the kibble in the container and off your floor!

This solid, well-constructed, heavy-weight cat scratching post is Maine Coon tip-proof and beloved by every cat that ever sees it! It will help your kitten maintain the good habits they've learned in our home, help save your furniture, and provide a great place for your Maine Coon to stretch to their full, glorious length as they grow into adulthood (which literally no other cat post can accommodate). It is even big enough around to make a nice place to sit, up top, and watch the world go by! Available at an incredibly affordable price point, we consider this a basic requirement and non-negotiable item for our adopters! Even if your Maine Coon cat tree has built in sisal posts, this is an essential item to provide proper exercise and keep your furniture intact!

Okay, okay, yes...that is a dog in the picture. But you have to remember, Maine Coon cats are the dogs of the cat world, and there are more than a few things on our favorite things list that were originally intended for dogs that Maine Coons seem to love. All of our cats and kittens cherish this inexpensive, durable, and easy-to-wash bed, which is why it makes our list of must-have Maine Coon supplies. We offer them teepees, caves, covered beds, fuzzy beds, floofy pillows, and everything else, but if it's not occupied,! they will choose this super comfy bed first every single time! 

This extra large and sturdy cat tree is Maine Coon tested and approved. You can find cat trees for less, but I promise, you will be replacing them in no time. Save yourself the heartache, and just get this one right out of the gate! Five stars on Amazon! 

This magical next-generation self-cleaning box will change your life. It is big enough for a Maine Coon, keeps odor down, weighs your cat with every use, and sends an alert to your phone when it needs attention. Yes, it's expensive. Yes, we use it. Yes, we recommend it!!! When it comes to Maine Coon supplies, this is top of our list!!! 

Low dust, low tracking, hard clumping, affordable, smells clean but not overpowering, and works great in the Litter-Robot 4. We have tried it all and we and the cats agree, Fresh Step Advanced with Gain scent is the best! It comes in four individual bags that are lighter to lift and easier to pour and you can save your back and some money with an auto-delivery from Amazon!

You'll have to pay close attention to size and dimensions to find ones large enough to accommodate your full-grown Maine Coon,  but its worth the effort because they absolutely love them! Climbing and resting from a distinct vantage point satisfy your Maine Coon's natural instincts, leading to a healthier, happier cat. Our cats really adore these wall hammocks, which are easy to hang and have proven to stand up to even our big King cats with continuous daily use. We use the complementary wall-mounted stairs to create a bridge between the top of our scratching post and where the shelves hang to provide a great way to meet their climbing and exercise needs.  

Your kitten will entertain itself for hours each day playing hunting, stalking, and chasing games through a configuration of tunnels and cubes. Add more or some empty cardboard boxes to the mix to keep things interesting.

Every kitten and cat goes crazy for a Churu treat, which is why we save these for very special occasions! These are the treats to use to reward good behaviors and distract your Maine Coon from a stressful situation. The perfect treat for harness training, riding nicely in the car, nail trimming, blow drying, vet visits and more. 

You can search the world over, but you'll never find catnip or other catnip-filled Maine Coon toys that your cat will love more than this simple yellow banana toy from Yeowww! Hours, days, weeks and months of catnip-induced bliss for you and your furbaby!
