She's adorable, really she is. I've looked after a cat before, but never a kitten, so this may well just be normal kitten behavior, i just don't know.
She throws her litter all over the place, pounces on anything that moves - the worst of this is when she jumps on my feet or hands in the night, I'm covered in loads of little scratches -, wants to play at 5am... This morning not only did she scratch me to pieces by jumping on me, but woke DS up by mewing so loudly trying to get me to play. I got him resettled, then ten minutes later he shrieked; she'd managed to open the door, and jump into his cot.
She keeps chewing at the corners of my laptop, and scratching at me bed.
So my day properly started at 5am, I'm exhausted, have an overtired little boy, and a very loud kitten.
Is this normal? What can I do to make it more bearable? I really don't want to have to shut her in one room over night, but I don't think I can manage if this is how every day is going to be.
