New kitten.

[dundermifflinpapersalesman1]

New kitten comes home today!!! So excited. What are everyone's tips to make the kitten feel at home.

We couldn't possibly advise you without first seeing a photo of the kitten.

That said, a nice quiet warm place to sleep and lots of toys.

I totally agree we need photos.

I'd suggest keeping them in a smallish room initially. If you let them have access to the whole house they'll be overwhelmed by it, and you'll end up with a kitten behind the dishwasher. Once they're feeling safe in that one room then let them explore gradually.

Here she is guys!

She is so tiny!!!!

Oh my goodness she is wee! Has she got a name? She looks like a Lilith or a Morticia to me. 🐈‍⬛

She also looks like she's already telling you what's what.

We called her Luna.

How old is she? She's really young looking...

She does look very young. How old is she?

Our cat is called Luna, she is 10 next week.

First things first:
Pet insurance
Vaccinations
Make a note of when her last flea and worm treatment was so you can give the next ones on time
Use the same food or change it very slowly to avoid an upset stomach

I'd suggest limiting her to one room for the first few days at least - small kittens have small bladders, & it will help minimise accidents if she is near the litter tray. Plus then you are less likely to end up with a tiny kitten behind the fridge / under the bath etc!

A soft blanket and cuddly toy to sleep with, she'll be used to sleeping with her siblings.

Make sure her litters non clumping.

Oh, she is adorable! She'll be running the household in no time.

So she is apparently 9 weeks old. Phoning up the vets tomorrow to get her booked in for a check etc.

'Apparently'? How can you not know how old she is?

Talk to her, hold her, no loud voices, understand she will be annoying, be gentle she’s a baby. Get her used to a comb and a toothbrush.

@Pemmican the breeders said she was born on the 19th of august. I said apparently because a lot of people had said she looked really young.

Cute ☺️

What breed is she then?

Did you not get photos of her from birth to know that was definitely her birthdate. She looks younger, I’d be concerned.

Sounds like you don't really trust these 'breeders'. I'm sure you did plenty of research before you handed over your cash though.

Cute. She looks just like my new kitten who's a couple of weeks older. She terrorises the dog, has put grumpy old cat firmly in his place and has already worked out to open the cat flap

Congratulations on your beautiful new feline overlady. She looks like she's going to be a handful.

The little open mouth. 😍😍😍😍. She looks like she's having a rant.

She is absolutely beautiful!! Treasure her!!! 💞

Toothbrush training is hard but invaluable later on.
