Have you decided to get a little cat? Here are a few tips that will help you to grow the animal, and it will feel well in the neighborhood with the person.
The kitten is taken away from the mother not earlier than after eight weeks of age. However, the baby will be healthier, if it remains with the mother for a longer period. Most optimally is to take away from the mother after 3 months.
Cats are animals that are difficult to train. There is need to educate them. By their nature, they are individualists; the gregarious instinct is alien to them.
The adaptation period lasts 2 weeks. At first, the baby will cry. The kitten should be kept in a room, do not let to walk all over the house. It can fall asleep, and it can get lost in a new place. Do not teach the cat how to go to ease itself on the tray. This skill is in its genes, you should only specify the location of the tray. Fuss around this process can only make the situation worse. Do not beat your pet. It will receive stress and will ease itself, which deems it convenient, usually in very remote places.
Buy the game for a kitten: mice, balls and so on. It encourages its further development. Let the size of the pet do not enter anyone astray. First, a cat is a hunter, though a lone predator; this must be taken into account in the selection of toys.
Feed your pet daily 4 times a day. Drinking - boiled water. You can feed dry feeds for kittens. Pate is allowed. Feeds must be fresh, so better buy small packages. You can feed your pet cooked chicken or turkey meat, raw lean meat is allowed. Everything must be finely chopped.
Vaccinate the kitten twice. The first vaccination is done at the end of the eighth week of life, the second 4 weeks after the first vaccination.
Make sure the pet is not poisoned. Cats, who live in the house, are exposed to a variety of toxic substances. First, it is household chemicals and poisonous plants.
The toxins can get into the gullet while licking hair, a small hit of spray on the animals hair is enough to be poisoned. The kitten can get severe poisoning even if it drinks the water from the bowl, where there were wonderful flowers. Yes, they are beautiful, but poisonous for the animal. Medicines are also a threat to life; there are cases of poisoning cats by conventional tablets. Do not attempt to treat the kitten with medicines for humans.
