Some Useful Tips For New Kitten Care


Now that you have got a cute little kitten home, these new kitten care tips are going to prove to be extremely helpful. Start by naturally wanting the best for your kitten.

Some Ways To Raise A Kitten Effortlessly

Following these tips would help your kitten grow up to become a friendly and affectionate cat that would remain by your side endlessly for years together.
  • Start by collecting as much kitten information care as possible. The more you know about her toys, food, litter box, scratching post and other likes and dislikes, the easier it would be to raise her.
  • New kitten care would also involve handling her as much as possible. Cuddle and stroke her often. In fact the more you pick her up and let her snuggle up to you the more affectionate and loving it would grow up to be. Though do remember to handle the new kitten gently. If you have small children at home then guide them while they pick up the kitten so that they do not accidentally hurt her.
  • Make sure that your kitten is used to receiving her share of everyday care from you. She shouldnt oppose when you groom her, wash her face and genitals, bath her and clean her ears and eyes. Instead she should give in readily and enjoy it too. The more comfortable the kitten is with her kitten health schedule, the easier it would be for you to handle her.
  • New kitten care would also involve introducing her to the daily things that are now a part of her world. Introducing her to your close neighbors, your kids, other nearby pets, going for a stroll, a ride in the car etc. should be initiated at the earliest. This would make it easier for your kitten to settle in if you need to leave her at your neighbors home while you go out for a vacation or a business trip. Besides it would make her adaptable too.
  • New kitten care also involves a lot of playing activities and talking to the new pet. If you are not able to involve your kitten in interesting activities like taking her to the park or for a stroll, then it would soon learn to do other things like destroying your furniture or eating your slippers to utilize her time. Try to build up a strong bond with your kitten by playing with her. This would prevent her boredom too.
  • Maintain proper kitten health by feeding her with a wide variety of foods that are specially meant for kittens. This would help her get used to a variety of foods so that she doesnt grow up to become a snooty and picky eater.
  • Set boundaries for your kitten. Dont allow her to do whatever she feels like doing. Kittens are like little kids who wish to push their limit to see how much they are allowed to do. Her naughty behavior could include excessive biting, scratching and jumping all around the house on kitchen countertops, furniture and even on the dining table. All you have to do to stop her from being naughty is to sternly say no. Train her so that she becomes an obedient and complaint adult.
One last new kitten care aspect is to keep your kitten safe at all times. Make it feel loved and at the same time do not spoil her too much also. Hope the above information would help you have years of stress-free companionship with your cat.
