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.

Hi there! My name is Hank! I was born on April 7, 06, my owner got me after her cat, my half brother, was hit by a car. I am still just a baby, or my owners like to think I Am. I love to play, i'm very playfull but when i'm tired you can do anything you want to me! Move me around and cuddle.. I love to cuddle when i'm sleepy. I sleep on my owners bed everynite, or else on the couch. I hate the vacumn cleaner, it scares me so I run upstairs and hide. I also don't really like water. I love to go outside and play as well but I just stay around my house so I won't get hurt. When I was just 3 months old my owners got me "fixed"..that was so mean of them but I think it was my own fault for whining all the time. I am a big fan of being brushed!. I also like to chase bees and roam in the grass...i hope you all like me!
