I never really thought about it, being around so many baby animals I have seen it a lot so I just assumed it was a typical thing for them. Baby bunnies do this funny thing where they wobble a lot when learning to walk (they also pop around and make squeak noises when they think mommy is above the nesting box, it is because they want milk and tbh it is hilarious.)

Humans have "meat sweats"; kittens have "meat trembles". The latter is way cuter than the former.

I found a kitten under a tree, too young to be weaned and in great distress in the heat. When I finally located the sound of its mewing and picked it up, I thought the poor thing was going to come apart at the seams, it was trembling so hard. I was on my bicycle and had to hold it under my chin while it shook the last quarter mile to my house. It's a teenager kitty now and in complete a$$hole mode most of the time, but it's HOME for sure.

It is really nice knowing that people talk about the important things to do with fostering pets.

I always thought the trembling when learning to eat was a natural muscle reaction. They're using different muscles to eat/chew rather than suck and giving them a workout. Our own muscles do the same. It makes sense. :)

The science part of me wonders if its a brain change for them. Hormones dictate everything our body does. They stimulate change and growth and development. Part of me wonders if the meat experience (taste/texture/smell) triggers a brain change, or hormonal surge to stimulate the move to the next stage, and leaving the milks behind.

This is just speculation from someone that knows a little about a lot of different things. Kittens this young are quite wobbly, they lack fine motor control and strength to move around without wobbling. When they get this excited/stimulated they just lack the motor control and strength to stabilize themselves. Not that I think they are really trying to control themselves. They are far to excited and enjoying this wonderful new experiences to bother.

It has to be sensory overload. The meat is new with the smell, texture, and taste. They are super sensitive and once they are used to these new things they won’t tremble anymore. Being cold also makes them tremble. It’s a way to generate heat. Super cute kitties.

Since finding your videos in 2020 I've started talking to all of the animals in my life the way you do in your videos 😂🙈 "that's so cool!! "Wow you're so brave" "you're doing such a good job!!" I coaxed a stuck kitten down from a tree with words of encouragement and it was a wonderful moment 😍😜

Ashton & Cynthia both make good points. The result of falling in love with a litter and not wanting to let them go has resulted in our 8 cats. It's not cheap. Food (One case of 12 cans@16 oz. a piece lasts 3 days), litter (40 pounds of litter in 2 days) and vet (spay/neuter, shots, wellness checks every year). It's better to think that their new parents will give them love and safety. Start learning how to care for kittens now. If there's a fostering program near you, contact them and tell them you'd like to be a helper so you can get field experience. Maybe someone can drop you off for a couple of hours every few days? It'll tell you in time if this is something you can do. World knows foster parents are needed. Good luck, sweetheart.

It almost makes me think it's the body trying to 'tear' a piece of meat from the carcass. They just lack the muscle control to make it voluntary.

You have some good little eaters there. I think its safe to say they like it :)

LOL in one of my recent litters (I tame and bring in pregnant mamas off the streets), I distinctly recall one particular little orange fluff ball who was so not normal and broke all the milestones first... I'd been keeping a small dish of kitten chow in the nest so mama didn't have to go far to get a nibble, right? The little orange fluffball dove in to the kibble and started chowing down... And growled the entire time he chewed! Wish I'd have gotten that on video, it was entirely too cute!

So good to know that trembling is normal! These kittens are adorable, and you give them the best start in life, how do you go about placing them in forever homes?

Thank you so much for this! I knew you were the one to go to. Myself and my daughter rescued 2 kittens that were approximately 7 days old. We're at three weeks now. The smaller one, unless actively bottle feeding has his head shaking/bobbling. I've been worried, however, my daughter said, his heads bigger than the rest of him, he's just growing, he's fine. After watching your wonderful video, I agree. They were seen by a vet at 10 days and given a clean bill of health. If it continues into his second month, I'll give them a call, however, based off your video, it's probably normal. I think he has a tiny neck, lol

I’m fostering my first kitten, who started weaning a few days ago. Thanks to you I knew to expect trembling!

Thank you so much for this! We rescued a feral kitten (all the others passed before we could get them 😔) and just started getting her on solids and was scared TO DEATH of the shaking!

I rescued two 8-week-old kittens and both - although one more than the other - would tremble after eating for weeks afterwards. Both had been cleared by the vet for any tremble-inducing illnesses and it eventually went away. They were both very sick and horribly malnourished and had been eating out of bins since their mama had kicked them out (she was expecting another litter), so I put it down to their poorly tummies and bodies being super sensitive to food in general!

Two words: Overwhelming joy

I love how their little tails go straight out and tremble when they eat non-mom food. :)
