First of all, congratulations on becoming the happiest person in the world! Becoming a cat lover for the first time must be a bit nerve-wracking and exciting, right? Looking at this frail yet active new kitten, you might be unsure how to care for it. We've got some tips to help you equip yourself to take good care of your kitty and embark on a wonderful journey!
A Year of Cat Growth
Kittens will go through a lot of changes this year, and as a cat lover, you need to observe their physical condition.
Newborn cats, in particular, are like newborn babies and require more care from you. Most of them are lactose intolerant and have extremely fragile stomachs.
The stomach and intestines of weaned kittens are still quite fragile, but they can eat semi-liquid food to absorb more nutrients. Remember to get vaccinations because the antibodies from the mother gradually disappear. It is recommended to start vaccinating cats at 8 months old.
When kittens reach the stage of being kittens, curious and adventurous kittens will start to change their teeth. With the marks left by their teeth, they will bite things around the house. At the same time, they will also enter the molting period. Remember to comb their hair regularly or feed them hairball remover to avoid hair vomiting!
