Kitten Development Stages – Pet Tip 249
When we bring a kitten home for the first time to adopt it as a pet, it should be between nine and twelve weeks old. This is so the kitten has a chance to spend time with its mother and so that the kitten becomes socialized with its littermates and learns proper kitten behaviour. But what happens before the kitten comes home? This article will outline some of the important milestones in kittenhood in an effort to familiarize you with some of the stages of kitten development.
Kittens are born blind and deaf and they remain that way for around the first fourteen days of their lives. They use their sense of smell to find their way toward their mothers for nourishment and heat. They really need to stay close to their mothers for these first few weeks as they are unable to regulate their own body temperature. The umbilical cord typically falls off after the first few days of life.

Max is very lovable but very tempermental. He loves to be pet but only when HE wants too be. He loves to be combed but only when HE wants to be. He never likes to be picked up and will growl at you. His favorite napping place is usually right in the middle of my clean laundry pile or on my victorian chair which I had cover with a blanket after his big brother buddy (dog) chewed it to shreds. But Max loves it all the same. This picture is of him in his chair. I woke him up and he's not happy. His favorite thing to do is to chase his brother Casey when he' not sleeping. Max prefers the sneak attack method.
