A kitten has appeared in your house

Besides the fact that kittens are adorable creatures, there are many more arguments in favor of getting a cat. Usually cats are very clean and tidy. They pride themselves on being able to keep themselves clean and are quite independent when they grow up, which means they need less of your time and attention than dogs. Kittens are so cute and playful, it’s very nice to be around them, but becoming a cat owner is not so easy.

Kitten care

Before you bring a kitten home, you need to prepare. There are a few basic things that kittens need to get the best start in life and grow into a healthy, happy and friendly cat.

First, the kitten will need one or two trays. Most kittens have already been shown how to use the litter box by their mothers and siblings, and this is largely determined by instinct, but some animals need a little help to learn how to do everything right. You can show your kitten where to go to the litter box by placing him in the litter box after each feed or after sleeping and watch for signs that he is about to “do his own thing”. While your kitten is small, place several trays around the house so that he can always easily find one of them. Diet and nutrition is also a very important aspect in caring for a kitten. Your kitten needs to develop, and this is only possible if he is fed properly. At Hills Pet, we create precisely balanced diets that guarantee the health and well-being of your pet.

Your kitten also needs to be taken to the veterinarian regularly for checkups and vaccinations, and later for spaying at 6 months of age. When your kitten is sick, you should notice the signs of illness as early as possible and provide him with the necessary veterinary care.
