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.

Pepps loves to sleep all day and party all night. So sleep is hard to come by in this household. Loves to sit at the front window and stare at the tasty birds.Sadly being an indoor cat the opportunity to feast has never presented itself. Well sometimes he does bolt out the door but then is terrified to actually be outside. Generally runs away and hides till nightfall where for some reason he climbs on the roof and starts to howl to come down.Which is great but he is to terrified to come down himself so someone{me} has to get the ladder and try to coax him down to me so I can snatch him and bring him in.All in all he is ready at all times for any kind of indoor adventure he can muster.
