    Adding onto this, make sure you only bathe your kitten (or cat) if you really NEED to. E.g if they have fleas, aren’t cleaning themselves properly (only usually happens with old or really ill cats), etc. They’re very good at keeping themselves clean and bathing them with water too much is actually bad for them. If you’re not sure talk to a vet! :)

    You’re making me realize how lucky I am with the kitty I found. She’s so easy going and I hardly have any problems with her going to the bathroom outside her box or her biting. She never chews on anything outside of her toys. She cuddles at night. She’s the sweetest thing. I found her in July. She was estimated to be 8 weeks and was feral. She was totally sick, full of worms and flea ridden. I got all the medicine with research and now she’s totally healthy and happy. I’m not a cat guy in the slightest, but this little girl won my heart. I don’t even have a name for her yet. I was considering “Velcro” simply because she needs to be near me when I’m home.

    RIght on. Just know they can cost money to keep in good health. Human society can get them fixed for 100, all shots for 60. Most regular vet visits can run hundreds if not more a pop. Care Credit is easy to get and can be used for vet bills. Keep that catbox clean every day dump it all atleast 1x a mo and put at least 4 inches of litter. Arm and hammer is great, no catbox smell. The cheap clay stuff reeks.

    Tip from a person that's raised 15 kittens: Do not introduce your kitten into a large space in your home immediately. Isolate your kitten in a small room like a bathroom so it can feel 'safe' and less overwhelmed, and allow them to WANT to explore. Edit: I should mention, you dont just leave the cat in there alone! Spend as much time in there as possible. Eat on the floor, read, play switch, whatever. If you have another room that is also small, like a small bedroom, this is also good. But bathrooms are usually the perfect size.

    Quick tip for bathing! When you have to bathe a kitten, you should introduce them to all of the materials you will use. Also, before you let the kitten into the bathroom, have the faucet already running with warm water so they aren’t startled and turn into panic/survival mode when they hear it turn on. Let the kitten play with the water, and then slowly and soothingly bather them, using soft coos and words help. If you’re lucky, the kitten will actually stay calm in your hands, if not, they still will express their dislike for the bath, but they will be much less stressed and make things easier for both the kitty and the owner!

    You can also put a towel in the tub since they start to panic when they're on a surface that they can't cling to. Also, if you don't want fleas to wander to the head, you should start washing the neck to make this "barrier" so they can't wander.(the kittenlady has a video on this)

    @@poopoofarter there is no need for a bath unless they’ve been picked up from the street or otherwise neglected. the best way to know whether it is needed is to bring them to a vet as soon as you get it. like, always, ALWAYS bring a new pet to the vet as soon as possible, if its a kitten; their immune system will still be weak and developing and the chances of health problems are huge. but even with adults you need to know what you’re dealing with. but, truly, new kittens should not *need* a bath unless youve adopted them from someone irresponsible or you picked them up from outside somewhere.

    Pro tips from someone who lived her entire life with cats: - NEVER such bleach on a space where you cat peed, specially on spaces where you don’t want them to pee again because they love the smell of bleach, use sanytol instead - teach them to go into their “cage” to go to the vet while they’re kittens by leaving their comfort items in it ( blankets, toys, catnip etc.. ) so you don’t struggle once you have to put them in - put just a little tiny bit of catnip or bleach into their litter box when they’re little to teach them to pee in it - get them used to have your finger in their mouth so you don’t struggle with giving them meds ( life changing I swear ) - also this is basic but PLEASE RESPECT THEIR BOUNDARIES, if you cat doesn’t want cuddles, let them be, if they wanna be alone let. Them. Be.

    Quick tip about bleach. Pee has ammonia in it, and when bleach and ammonia mix it can make a toxic gas called mustard gas. So never clean up pee with bleach, and please do not put bleach in the littler box where you intend for your cat to pee. Sincerely, someone who has owned both cats and dogs and has had to clean up far too much pee in her lifetime. 😂

It's especially helpful if someone is not home all the time so they have each other to spend time with.

    Unsolicited advice about scratching and biting lol: kittens learn from other cats (mothers and siblings) what is too rough when playing. They learn this because when they're too rough playing the other cat will cry and stop playing. So, if you have one kitten and it's being rough, even if it doesn't hurt right now (it will later lol) you should let out a high pitched sort of Yelp noise if it is being too rough and hurting or puts out it's claws too much. Don't pull your hand away because that could be seen as play. Just Yelp and usually it'll startle the kitten to stop. Then remove your hand and temporarily stop the play. Be consistent and your kitten will learn :)

    We've always had cats growing up, a few tips I've picked up over the years when meeting a new cat: a) let them come to you, on their own time.Being up in their grill puts them on edge immediately.encourage children to do the same and save tears later on. b) when a cat looks at you, make direct eye contact with them (don't look away), and slowly consciously blink.i count to 3 when blinking and do it a few times until they look away. This mimics natural cat on cat behaviour, and is a sign of trust (angry cats NEVER look away or blink at each other instinctively). c) let them have a few spots which are quiet, warm, snug and away from other pets, kids, noise. Don't invade these spaces. Let them feel safe there and come out for love and attention when they are ready-this will calm them long term! d) if you can't handle the energy and attention a kitten needs (its a baby after all!) Or the idea of committing to care for something for a full 15+years then instead, consider adopting a grown cat. They are often toilet trained at shelters, de-sexed, the shelter should be clear about their personality(so you know what your getting), and need loving homes too!

    Potentially helpful thoughts ... I usually give my cats baths once a year in the summertime ( before they start super shedding) or if they get into something. I find that they are mostly frightened by the running water ( it's super loud to them), so I usually fill the bath or basin with two to three inches of warm water and then I bring them into the room. My cats actually enjoy the water itself but hate the noise. They'll actually walk into the shower with me. I trim their nails and brush their teeth and fur before baths. I give them tuna after and try to make it a nice day for them. The other thing I did when they were young is I got them on my schedule in terms of food. Since I work from home they eat three meals a day at 7:45, 3:00, and 7:45. Wet for brekkie and dinner and dry for lunch. To train them I made sure that when I woke up I didn't immediately feed them. I gave myself an hour to putter around the house and play with them and pet them. Even if I wake up late I try to wait at least 10 minutes. I have Alexa make a sound when it is time for them to eat and they react to that sound. Even though they do follow me around when it is close to dinner time... It has made it so that they can sleep with us at night but they don't bother us in the morning until Alexa says it's food time.

    Things that helped my cats anxiety when i brought him home the first time: 1. Introduce ur cat to ur house ROOM BY ROOM. By doing this ur cat doesnt get overwhelmed. We kept my cat in the bathroom for the first few hours as I sat with him in the bathroom till he got more comfortable around me. Also place ur litter and food in the room you're doing this in. 2.Once your cat is more comfortable with your presence, open up the space a bit more. I opened him into my living room area. 3. He then slept in m room with the litter and food there so he felt comfortable sleeping near me. 4. Eventually we allowed him to free roam around the house and by this time he trusted us completely

    I recently stared the transition to pine litter and it's been amazing i totally recommend it, two of my cats didn't liked it at first but they already got used to it. The house doesn't stink, my nose doesn't hurt when im picking it up, the waste its not heavy and surprisingly its not messy either and i have the feeling that you save a lot of money.

    It’s better to first put them in a small room like a bathroom where they can calm down and get acclimated to a space that’s not overwhelming. Once they’re comfortable and confident, you can let them explore at their own pace and they usually won’t head under the first thing they come to.

    My cat hid under the bed for more than 2 weeks so eventually we had to remove the mattress for her to be forced to get out. She still hid just somewhere else eventually we bought a cat tree and she hid in the little box of the tree. Now shes super confortable with us though even if it took a lot of time and patience and she escaped the house 3 times before we started letting her go outside (we wanted to make her an inside cat but she always escaped so now she goes out but only during the day)

    It really matters how well they were socialized in their early weeks, that's when kittens develop their skill set&attitude to all new things for their whole lives. Responsible breeders familiarize their kittens to traveling, vets, children, being handled&groomed&medicated and all kinds of different stressors they might face in life before sending them to their new homes so they will adapt well and have a happier life.

    Torties can have white! The main distinction is that calicos have clumps of color and torties have the red and black more muddled and mixed together.

    Tips: 1. To get your cat to scratch on it's scratcher, you can spray catnip on it or sprinkle some on top 2. To stop cat from scratching your personal items or any unwanted places, spray with any citrus scents or lavender 3. To stop cat from scratching you: •Get nail caps which people call "kitty soft paws" • maybe she's scratching you cuz you might be using your limbs to play with her (watch kitten lady and cat mojo on more tips cuz they're REALLY helpful) 4. Get a friend for your kitten preferably from a real rescue or shelter this time to be sure of health and personality. Getting a friend for your kitten lets you have more time for yourself, stops rough play like scratching and biting, makes them happier as well as more behaved and is honestly 3× more fun with HALF the work🤗 5. To stop urine spraying, spay uni cuz this usually fixes the problem

    Just here to add that cats are normally neutered with 6 month of age, you definitely shouldn’t do it too early. Also: 1. to avoid cat’s jumping on tables use sticky tape in the beginning! 2. Always have some cat grass at home if your cats is an indoor cat to help with digestion and hair balls. It also encourages your cat to not chew up your other plants. Still only have non toxic plants at home, you never know what looks like a tasty treat to those fur balls. 3. I personally wouldn’t use nail caps, kittens should learn how to use their claws and what damage they do. Just never use your hands to play with them and stop giving them attention if they chew or claw your hands or feet. Some scratches are still to be expected with kittens, they are still learning, but if your adult cat is well socialized scratches shouldn’t be a common thing. 4. Yes yes YES, I’d always encourage getting two cats from the same litter or ones who already like each other at once, cats may be solitary hunters but they usually don’t live completely separate from others. Many shelters (at least in my country) often have pairs of cats they only adopt out together. Introducing a second cat later is also possible but a little harder, best do it when they’re still young, but there are lot’s of tips and guidances online!

    Kitty soft paws is actually accepted by jackson galaxy and Gary weitzman (vet and ceo of SDHS) but as a last resort. It really is always better to let them express their natural instincts like scratching but only on a scratching post (since all cats are different they like scratching on different textures and Sides whether it be diagonal or lying down)

    I understand 1 million percent how you feel about being obsessed 😍 about your kitten. I never knew how much I would love a cat until my Lexi came into my life 🧡 and I never really cared for cats until now! My camera roll is filled with pictures of her. Girl let me just say I wake up early every day just to feed her, but my kids can wait lol 😂

    Gunjan Shukla it’s a good idea. dental cleaning are pricey but important an can be reduced with regular brushing. it’s still important to have their teeth examined at the vet though.
