Socialize Your New Kitten

KITTEN HELDSome cats will disappear if someone strange comes in the house. I had a friend who supposedly had a cat. I never saw it because every time I would go over to her house, her cat would bolt and wind up in a corner or under a bed. If you’ve just adopted a new kitten, you must make sure that you socialize her right away. For kittens, the period of prime socialization to humans is between two and seven weeks of age. I know this sounds young, but socialization should start almost immediately after your kitten is born. During this time, it’s important for your kitten to be handled by different people in pleasant ways. You don’t want you kitten to grow up hissing, spitting or striking out at strangers when she grows up.

Remember, your pets count.
