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.

Tiggy is a spoilt princess - and she knows it! She has her own chair with her bed in it, and no visitors are allowed to move her out of the chair lol! She wakes me up in the morning by putting her paw very softly on my face, and staring down at me, it's so sweet that it's impossible to get cross with her for it - even if it is 6am! She looks forward to me having my dinner as she knows she's usually in for a treat, her favourites being ham, and chicken. She is a fussy madam, and will go hungry rather than eat any food with gravy, and is a 1 out of 10 cat, that hates a very popular brand of cat food!! Her favourite toy is her santa tickler that her human grandma got her for this christmas, she goes crazy chasing it. She is a house cat, and is very content, she shows no interest in going outside. She is my little sweetheart, and I love her to bits. Oh, and you may have noticed from the photo she thinks she's a model, and is always posing for the camera lol!
