p.s i am not allergic and no one in my family is.
If that is a problem for you, the standard advice is not to play with them with your hands. Use play toys instead. A mouse or a bird on a string. Or a wooden spoon to touch tem with...
I'd like to give him minced meat, how do I prepare it? @StefanZ? I'll give him boiled eggs too I guess.
Don't think we need more fat, A good way I read somewhere is to feel his ribs
Well I don't SEE his ribs, which means he''s not too slim
and I can feel his ribs, which means he's not too fat, perfect!
Indeed he's a beauty!
But a bit shy.
I'm going to make a tent for him using cardboard and t-shirt and hanger (the lifehack one lol ;3)
I am indeed a mommy to him.
I teach him stuff, how to play, etc.
And I teach him not to go to certain places by picking him up by the neck (how his mom would) and putting him away from that place
I do have a bit of a biting problem
when he plays with me, he's very nice, bites gently my finger, but today he bit me very hard, there was blood
Any tips? I've tried the "ignore your kitty when he bites you" but to no avail.
The first 6 months most important, a slow downgrading after it, after one year he is counted as adult.
P.S Till when do I need to take care of him as a kitten (Like feeding him all the fats, growing foods like olive oil etc?)
P.S thank you so so much for helping me! Loving this site!

TalkingPeanut gave also some sound advices here too.
I myself, with my two residents, I did played with hands and let them bite. They were very gently, as yours Shirazi. As adults they understand perfectly well there is a big no no with biting.
Left are gentle love bites.
Sometimes a threat of biting, but they never do it for real. (oh, well, it DID happened once, I got bitten for real... But that is another story).
With cats you dont know its much more important to be careful here, of course.
Perhaps boilde chicken, boiled eggs - they dont get bad as quickly as wet food.
Ok, so here's what I've thought about his feeding routine
Morning: Chicken boiled up and cut into fine pieces (boneless chicken)
I'll leave some dry food I guess :/ It's low quality, I'm worried :/ for the 7 Hours, is there any alternative?
Afternoon: The food I posted the pic of.
Evening: Olive oil (how do I feed him this?) and one whole boiled egg
Night:You decide? Chicken or the food I posted the pic of? Le Chat or whatever? Or?
If you give him olive oil you can add a few drop to his wet food. It's not necessary unless you think he needs calories or is constipated.

I wouldn't do this without supervising him a few times first. This could be ok if eaten within an hour, maybe two. I wouldn't trust anything longer than that.
Hm, Okay. I guess I'll mash some eggs or cut a whole boiled egg and leave it in the cup as a DIY Puzzle feeder. will that be okay?
Chicken meat is excellent, but the fact is most on a chicken is good.

OK, but again, just a few drops of olive oil.
I guess like this then.
Morning: Chicken
and I'll leave dry food.
Afternoon: LeChat
Evening: Olive Oil and Eggs (cut or mashed?)
Night: LeChat
Sound good? and maybe once-twice a month I'll give him Chicken heart with the LeChat?
Im not sure what you mean...
That'll be hard to get because of my parents. Will chicken meat minced/cut into small pieces be enough?
2-4 drops... not a whole tea spoon.
Few as in? Number please xD
Heart hmm. once a week? (Thrice a month, that means)
And heart cooked or raw?
2-4 drops... not a whole tea spoon.
At least once a week.
