How to have a happy kitten..

Feeding Kittens: Choose both dry and canned food intended specifically for kittens,avoiding generic foods and those that sell for unusually low prices. Dry food because it helps keep the teeth clean and healthy,and canned food because later in life,cats eating canned food are less likely to have urinary tract problems. Switch to adult cat food at about ten months of age. Adult food is lower in calories,so plump kittens should change amonth or two sooner,thin kittens a little later. Do not give milk to kittens. They don't need it and milk is likely to give them diarrhea. When to feed: Kittens are usually happiest when they have dry food continually available. Although some cats eventually become overweight when allowed all the food they want, this can usually be avoided by choosing a reduced calorie diet. If your kitten begins to be overweight as s/he reaches adulthood, you will need to limit the amount of food. Immunization: Between nine and twelve weeks of age,kittens lose the disease protection they received from their mothers and develop the ability to form their own immunity. We like to start vaccinations when kittens are nine weeks old or as soon afterwards as possible. Play Toys: Kittens love to play. Provide harmless outlets for all that energy by supplying toys that are safe.Select toys too large to be swallowed but small enough to bat around. A ping pong ball, crumpled wax paper or a toilet paper tube are all excellent choices. Don't let your kitten play with string or thread, and be careful not to leave threaded needles where cats can reach them. Your kitten must always associate your hands with gentleness and kind attention. Never encourage biting or aggressive play by batting at kittens with your hands. When it comes time for grooming or administering medications, your cat must know that hands are not for biting and realize that you expect cooperation. I hope this will help all you to make your kittens happy :)
