Hi! I can finally pick up my kittens tonight. They are 10 weeks old. I would like to have them sleep with us right from the get-go. I am a first time cat owner.
I have kitten proofed our entire bedroom. It's pretty small. And I would put some pillows under the bed so they won't be able to hide in the middle of under the bed so easily the first few days. There are other places where they could hide if they needed.
Anyway, my concerns about them sleeping in my bed when they are tiny -
1) They will be too little to jump off the bed and get on the bed. I have a lot of cube furniture. I was thinking of stacking it so they would have a jumping point that isn't so far off the ground. I also saw a post about devising a ramp to your bed?
2) They will need to go to the bathroom and won't know how to get off the bed. At first, they won't know where anything is. So I'm worried they will just go to the bathroom on my bed. I will put a litter box in the room. But how will they know where it is once in our bed?
