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.

Smudge is having her first lot of kittens, she is due around the 22nd of Decemeber!She has a beautiful nature and loves attention (especially from her owner), she will never bite but she does lick peoples hands and fingers alot which we can't seem to break that habit from her, At the moment, she has taken a craving to Rabbit Meat, she will eat heaps of it! her best cat friend will have to be her half brother Napoleon, He came from the first litter of kittens that Smudge's mother had, she came in the 2nd lot! so she doesn't know that he is her half brother but she still loves him to bits!
