#1. Fleas & Tick Shampoo for Cats - using it mostly in spring and summer.
#2. Dawn dish soap - I add just a drop (it can strip natural oils from cats' skin) when I am giving a bath to my cats.
And I am adding a little bit of it to Diatomaceous earth when I sprinkle my yard.
#3. Pet & Home Spray - obvious
#4. FURminator - my cat with long hair just love it! He is waiting for his 10 minutes daily procedure.
It's a great tool for reducing shedding and keeping your cat's fur clean, but fleas are tricky—they hide deep in the fur.
#5. A flea comb – Fine-toothed and more effective at catching fleas and eggs.
#6. Advantage - I apply it once a month

I use Flea & Tick Shampoo regularly, especially during spring and summer when fleas are most active.
A flea comb is handy to check for fleas or flea dirt and remove any early signs of infestation.
My cats are indoor/outdoor - I need keeping the grass short and reducing flea-prone areas helps minimize exposure.

I use a cat litter mat that is easy to clean and works great for a senior cat. Our sweet Margo is 18 and occasionally has an accident.
To tell you the truth, I actually bought a kitchen sink mat to save money. It cost around $11, compared to a Cat Mat for Litter Box, Large 34" x 22", Waterproof Silicone Pad for Floor priced at $23.

I stopped using Dr. Elsey's Cat Litter.
Everyone who walked into my house could tell I have cats because of the tracking on my hardwood floors.
I agree - cheap cat litter can cost you extra effort to keep your house clean.

I like Integrity Clumping Clay Cat Litter. I used to buy 20 lb bags at Bogie’s (Fremont).
The litter forms stronger clumps, which means less waste.
Unfortunately, the only option now is 40 lb. (:
Not very easy to carry the bag.

I tried Fresh Step Simply Unscented Clumping Clay Cat Litter (25 lb) from PetSmart for about $18 ($0.72 per lb)
and Dr. Elsey's Clean Tracks Clumping Clay Cat Litter (40 lb) for about $26 with shipping and tax ($0.65 per lb).

At first glance, the second option seemed cheaper.
But the litter consumption was much worse, and cleaning the litter box was terrible.

I prefer to pay a little more for Fresh Step, buy less often, and save time on cleaning.

My older indoor/outdoor cat prefers to pee in a litter box with shredded redwood mulch and use clumping clay litter for poop. One bag of mulch lasts at least three months.
I am buying this mulch at Lowe's Home Improvement in Fremont.

Knocking things off tables—is it about sending a message?

My cat loves to sit on my laundry box. I need to remind myself to take care of the clean one as soon as possible.

Boiled chicken, turkey or fish can be a cost-effective and healthy option. Just avoid seasoning, onions, and garlic.

I buy liver from Ranch 99 in Fremont as an occasional treat for my cat, Murry. He loves it, and it's an affordable way to add variety to his natural diet.
