Hi Guys,
past week has been new experience with my 2 x small kittens (10 weeks now)
so sharing what I have been experiencing in case it helps any other new kitten adopters who are staying apartments like mine and space is limited.
unlike cats kittens are hyperactive machines and if keeping a pair, they will play fight and bite and learn biting strength.
i was able to lock them in my study every night with my litter robot, and water. Dry food always wanted so have stopped leaving Them in bowl.
if you keep just a kitten then you will his/her sparing partner and have to keep kitty close as he will need some one to look to.
even then I still make a routine to play with them and to socialise with them.
I bought 2 cat boxes for them to rest. Not that ex and did not spend on the cat beds.
but kitten choose their own sleeping spots.
one sleeps in small confine areas under table and at times in the cat box while the other like to sleep stretched up on floor every where. So get basic boxes or even the carrier before committing any cat beds sold.
kitten wet food sold have different feeding instructions. You can read and feed or feed small amounts till u think they are full.
hard to see if I am over feeding but heard from guys here, kittens need to eat more. And also forget about the twice a day timing like adult cats. Kittens rostered feeding every 6 hrs. That’s me.
instead of normal litter trays, I let them use litter robot. Again pros and cons.
while u don’t need to scoop but u will need to press the cycle button till they reach the required weight for the sensor to work.
again your kitten may be very particular about hygienic and will bury the poop and then like mine does not bother cover much as still not used to do it properly.
hopefully u are not like me to cheese and wipe down the leg and butt as not always we are around..
