I want to raise a kitten The cute appearance of kittens always easily captured people's hearts, making me want to raise a kitten. The kittens looked very charming. They had soft fur and big round eyes that flickered with a mysterious light in the darkness. Their small noses were constantly sniffing the surrounding air, and their triangular ears were very sensitive. They would be alerted by the slightest movement. In terms of personality, Kitten was a very interesting companion. They would sometimes bask in the sun lazily, and sometimes chase after their tails or little furballs energetically. They were independent but knew how to rely on their masters. They stayed quietly when you were busy, and when you were free, they would run over to ask for petting and play.

The following are the key points for raising kittens: ** 1. In terms of feeding ** 1. **0 - 2 months (milk feeding phase)** - The priority was to choose milk powder for cats with guaranteed quality, followed by goat's milk. If the conditions were limited, it could also be replaced with low-lactase milk such as Shuhua milk, but it could not be fed with high-lactase milk such as cow's milk. - It was better to feed the kitten with a special bottle for cats and let the kitten suck on its own. It could also be fed with a syringe. The concentration should be appropriate. Feed it once every 2 - 3 hours, about 5 ml each time. The temperature should be slightly hot on the back of the hand. When feeding, let the kitten lie down properly. The feeding angle should not exceed 30 degrees. If the kitten doesn't want to eat, don't force it. You can try to change the milk (for kittens who are picky about the taste of milk), and don't feed cold or leftover milk. 2. **1.5 - 3 months (food adaptation stage)** - Kittens 'digestive system is still weak, suitable for feeding softened food, such as low-sugar milk soaking soft cat food (to soak thoroughly). - Kitten food is a supplementary product, so it is not recommended to soak it in water. At this stage, milk was still the best nutrition. The kittens were 80% full every meal. They should eat less and eat more. It was recommended to feed them about six times a day. The amount of food they ate could be adjusted flexibly according to their growth. Similarly, they should not be fed cold or leftover food. 3. **3 - 6 months (normal feeding period)** - You can start to feed the kittens directly or make cat food according to the recipe, but the kittens 'digestive system is not fully developed, so you still have to pay attention to the amount and quality of food. 4. ** When I was 2 months old ** - They could prepare to wean the kittens and feed them with dry food and wet food. They could choose cat food and canned food suitable for kittens and pay attention to the quality of the raw materials. ** 2. Excretion ** When the kittens cannot take care of themselves, they should use a damp cotton swab or towel with a suitable temperature to gently wipe the excretory system 3 - 4 times a day, 5 - 8 times each time to stimulate their defecation. Even if the kittens do not immediately defecate, they should continue every day. ** 3. Sleep ** Kittens were more likely to wake up at night than adult cats. After the kittens are 7 - 8 weeks old, they can increase their daytime activity by playing with the cats. To provide a quiet and safe place for the kittens to rest, if dinner is more than a few hours before bed, leave a small amount of food before bed to prevent the kittens from waking up hungry. ** 4. Health ** 1. **1 - 2 months ** - At 1 month, if the mother cat's breast milk is insufficient, she can supplement goat milk powder, pay attention to keeping warm, and try not to go out. At 2 months, she will start to wean, transition to solid food, eat less and more meals, and feed regularly and in a fixed amount. At 2 months, she can deworm, but do not bathe. 2. **3 - 6 months ** - At 3 months of age, the cat will be in the blank period of immunity. The cat will be given triple immunity. The diet will be a mixture of semi-liquid and solid food. After 15 days of the vaccine, the cat can take a bath. At 4 months of age, the body will grow rapidly. Pay attention to nutrition. Don't change cat food frequently to prevent diarrhea. You can supplement a nutritious cat meal every day. At 5 months of age, the cat will start to change teeth. You should develop good habits and do daily cleaning to prevent tear stains. At 6 months of age, you will enter puberty. If you are infertile, you can consider sterilization. If you want to help with social training, you can prepare a cat tree to increase the amount of exercise. 3. ** Others ** - Pay attention to the growth and loss of the kittens 'teeth (for example, observe the tooth loss after 3 - 4 months). The vaccine will be basically injected after 4 - 6 months (basic immunity), and sterilization can be considered. At 7 - 12 months of age, the body is basically mature, which is the transition period from juvenile cat food to adult cat food. Physical examinations, including oral examination, can be carried out and health care files can be established.
Raising kittens required many aspects: 1. ** In terms of feeding ** - **0 - 2 months milk feeding stage **: It is best if you can buy high-quality milk powder for cats, followed by goat's milk. If you are limited by objective conditions, you can also use low-sugar milk such as Shuhua milk, but do not feed high-sugar milk such as milk. It was best to feed it with a special bottle for cats and let the kittens suck on their own. The concentration should be appropriate. Feed it once every 2 - 3 hours, about 5 ml each time, and the temperature should be slightly hot on the back of the hand. When feeding, let the kitten lie down properly, with the front slightly no more than 30 degrees. If the kitten doesn't want to eat it, don't force it. You can feed it at another time. Kittens who are picky about the taste of milk can consider changing milk. If you can't buy a special milk bottle, you can use a syringe to feed it. Do not feed cold or leftover milk. Milk is easy to deteriorate in summer, which will cause problems such as diarrhea. - **1.5 - 3 months of food adaptation stage **: At this stage, the kittens 'digestive system is still relatively weak, and it is suitable to feed softened food. The kittens can be fed after being softened with low-sugar milk. Milk had a high nutritional value at this stage, so it was still best to absorb milk nutrients. Kitten food was an auxiliary food for adapting to food, and it was not recommended to soak it in water. Kittens should eat less and eat more. It is recommended to feed them about six times a day. The amount of food can be adjusted flexibly according to the growth. Similarly, cold or leftover food should not be fed. - **3 - 6 months normal feeding stage **: At this stage, kittens can start to be fed directly with kitten food or make cat food according to the recipe. However, its digestive system has not yet developed fully, so it is still necessary to pay attention to the amount and quality of food. - ** 2-month-old kittens feeding details **: 2-month-old kittens have not fully developed digestive systems, so they need to be fed with milk powder for at least half a month. Choose a brand of goat milk powder, feed about 10 - 15ml each time, and feed them with a special bottle at a temperature of about 40 degrees. At this time, the kittens were basically interested in cat food, but because their teeth had not grown back, they had to soak the cat food in warm water or goat milk powder before feeding it. 2. ** Excretion **: When kittens are unable to take care of themselves, they should use a damp cotton swab or towel with suitable temperature to gently wipe the excretory system 3 - 4 times a day, 5 - 8 times each time to stimulate their defecation. Even if the kittens do not defecate, they should continue to do so every day. Milk cats had less feces. As long as they could keep urinating, their digestive system was considered normal. 3. ** Sleep **: Kittens are more likely to wake up at night than adult cats.

If the interval between dinner and bedtime is more than a few hours, the kittens may wake up hungry in the middle of the night. It is recommended to arrange the last feeding before the kittens go to bed and leave a small amount of food for the "extra meal" at night. 4. ** For vaccine deworming **: Cats that are two months old can be subjected to vaccine and deworming. Insect repellent, choose a qualified internal and external insect repellent. The internal insect repellent can be directly fed. If it is not eaten, it can be crushed and mixed into a can. The external insect repellent can be dripped on the neck, back, tail root, and front armpit, and it must be dripped on a place where it cannot lick. If the cat's parents raised the kitten indoors and did not plan to let it go out, they could not get the rabies vaccine. The triple vaccine for cats was enough. They could go to the pet shop to get the vaccine. The price was about 200 yuan. 5. ** In terms of training ** - ** Biological clock training **: Cats are naturally nocturnal animals. Two-month-old kittens need to train their biological clock so that they can sleep at night. Try to let the cat sleep less during the day. You can wake it up to play or tempt it with delicious food to reduce its deep sleep. During the day, use the cat teaser to consume its physical strength and train it repeatedly for about a week. If cats like to jump on people, stop them in time. - [Training of letting the cat hug you: Use the food induction method, step by step.] First, prepare the cat's favorite food (such as freeze-dried food). When feeding freeze-dried food, first touch its paws. If you want to touch it, freeze it, if you want to avoid it, don't give it. Train it five or six times, 1 - 2 times a day. Then touch its belly or turn it over. Use food to induce it. Train it for about three days until it can touch its belly freely. Finally, use your hands to hold it. Use food to induce it.

If the house is clean, the cat can even not bathe for the rest of its life, because the consequences of a kitten catching a cold or having an emergency response are very serious. - ** Don't change food frequently **: Changing food frequently will cause indigestion and other problems in the cat's stomach. If you need to change food, it is best to follow the 7-day food change method. - ** Don't feed too many snacks **: Many snacks contain food lure, antiseptic, glue and other ingredients, which are not good for cats. If you have the time and energy, you might as well cook meat rice for cats. - ** Don't put clothes and accessories on the cat **: Putting clothes on the cat will affect the heat dissipation and bring a sense of restraint, which will easily cause the cat to be irritable and depressed. The cat collar and bell will easily strangle the cat and cause danger. 7. ** Safety of the home environment **: After preparing the necessities for the cat, check the unsafe factors in the home. For example, move dangerous items to places where cats can't reach; install guardrails beside the stove; close the doors of washing machines, fridges, and other household appliances at all times; put valuable and fragile furnishings in places where cats can't reach; don't plant plants that are poisonous to cats indoors; don't let cats come into contact with garbage; prevent cats from biting the power cord; cut off the power when not in use; install guardrails around the stove or open fire.
