One of the cutest things while having a kitten is when you play with them and while playing they fall asleep and while you think how cute they are and if you should let him/her sleep they awake and are full of energy again and the playing just goes on as if nothing has happened.

My cat stayed with his mom for his first 10 weeks, got handled by humans daily and then got co-raised by my dog who is confident and taught my cat to look at me when in trouble or scared. He's the most confident, sweetest cat I know. He's super good at the vets. A lot of this happened because my dog needs to go to the vet super often so he went when the dog went and got a lot of great exposure to the vets, I have the only cat I know who walks themselves into the vets and who doesn't bite or scratch when he gets his temp checked. I brought him everywhere I went for the first 6 weeks for exposure and learning in my arms. He's super friendly to everyone and rolls over because he loves belly rubs. He's turning 9 months in 4 days!

Learning about the kitten stages has actually helped me understand my adult boy Rudy. He's around 6 yrs. I got him from my aunt who had him when he was a kitten (the guy she was dating was allergic to cats & her daughter wanted a dog, so Rudy was given over to me). He had no toys, no scratching post, and his cat tree was too small for his size & not very comfortable or interactive. As a result, although I've bought him plenty of toys & other furniture (something the siblings I lived with at the time hated cuz I was "wasting money on unnecessary things" as our family cats also had no toys or posts/trees), he hardly plays, and I think it's because he didn't really learn during that critical 6 month phase. I'm hoping to get him a younger cat/kitten friend who might be able to encourage him into more playing. He's a happy loving cat otherwise, doubly so after I moved away from my stingy family this year.

In January of 2007, we inherited a 7-year-old calico female, Toesie. In June we wanted to get her a companion so we adopted an 8-week-old orange-and-white tabby boy, Rusty. After a week of mutual hissing, they became inseparable. She adopted him as her stepson. Almost every afternoon when we came home from work they would be asleep together in a chair with their legs all tangled up. Then they would chase each other around the house. He turned out to be a cool, mellow, 27-pound cat. All the neighbors loved him, he traveled with us across the U.S. 17 times in our motorhome and he lived a wonderful 15 years. Toesie did a great job raising him.

I'm so glad you advocate for getting two kittens so hard. It convinced me to adopt two kittens from a stray litter, and even though they're teenagers now, they don't try to push my 16-year-old cat's buttons too much. They'll get a little close to her to sniff noses or something sometimes and she hisses at them, but they don't stalk or pounce on her because they're getting all their energy out with each other (and with toys, of course). I think my senior cat's quality of life is much better than it would have been if I had only taken one kitten in. So thank you, Jackson!

@KM-pm6qe 3 года назад

Does your dad understand that declawing is actually amputating each toe at the first knuckle? Your cat is getting old enough to need to be indoors full time. If your father doesn’t care if the cat is harmed in that way, maybe he won’t care if the cat finds another home, either. Declawing cats is actually illegal in my state because it is recognized as cruelty (except for medical necessity).

@petrazaagman5375 Год назад

These videos have been so helpful! I found a litter of abandoned kittens in June, they were around 1 week old. Knowing what they need and how they develop has helped me so much! I also used your videos to figure out how to introduce them to my 18 month old cat Miley. Now we're 4 months in and the kittens are thriving! If anyone else is in the same situation and looking for information, another channel I'd highly recommend is Kitten Lady's channel!

We got our kitten in December,she is 5 months now. She was super small when we got her she was the runt and wasn’t feeding well, she is now very very big for her age, still has her baby teeth, and is the most loving happy cat Iv ever met. The owner of her mum didn’t think she was going to survive due to how small she was compared to her siblings. We love her so much and so glad we took her, the time hand feeding her in the beginning and hand giveing ger kitten milk and water she is now becoming very independent but still lives her hugs and kisses

This was really needed. I just got a 6 month old kitten about 2 weeks ago! We got her very suddenly so I really wasn't prepared but watching all of these videos has helped IMMENSELY. I feel like I understand her better and know what she needs...at least some of the times because right now she has zoomies all of the time and seems to love getting into mischief but who can blame her when there's a whole world of our apartment to discover! Lol

@emmanordgren6086 3 года назад

i literally got a kitten 10 days ago! she's almost 14 weeks old, the chillest, but as a first time *actual* guardian/owner (having had cats in my family my whole life tho...) I'm always second guessing myself. Seriously, she's sick of me, always fussing and checking on her, her poo, her eyes/nose/ears, butt (especially hates that). I LOVE that this video came out now, I could rly use some guidance and reassurance...😅😬

I absolutely love your channel! Thank you for the amazing guidance. I adopted a stray that chose me after a month or so of moseying around and watching me create a Zen garden. I work in palliative care and I must say we are healing each other. She used to act like a roughly 8 week old even though the vet said she's likely around 6 months. She was very dependant and a total wallflower, sleeping and following me around. I got a great tower for her, heaps of different toys and now I know to get a 2nd litterbox ASAP. She has more personality than I do now! Always playing and loves to meet my friends and family, definitely acting like a teenager but listens to me if the answer is no because I make as much time for us as I can.

@allaboutroofing2 2 года назад

I just adopted the 5th cat that has come into my life over the years. Each one was around 6 months at the youngest and about 10 years at the oldest. I never picked my cats, they picked me in unusual ways. This time around I adopted a 3 month old and OMG, they are sooooo much fun. I hadn't realized how special this phase is and how mutually beneficial it is for both the kitten and the human. At 3 months I found myself wondering how the fluff he is so capable, smart and FAST. He's like a Ninja and im pretty sure is part leprechaun because if you take your eye off him, he disappears like a fart in the wind, only to reappear like he was never gone or sneak up on you while you wonder where the fluff the slippery little booger went. Well that's all for now, my kitty (Rush) is currently MIA. (Wish me luck with a 4 years old Aussie, a 10 year old huge cow cat and a 3 month old main coon tuxedo that is loco 😜)

@MissGreenTeaLady 2 года назад

I'm so thankful that our kitten was with a foster family with 9 kids during the critical development phase. He got used to being held by everyone and as a result, he's so tolerant. It also makes vet visits much easier.

Hey Jackson and Team, Just wanted to say thank you for these videos and advice. They are incredibly helpful. We recently had a very special adult cat (Luna) die unexpectedly from lymphoma leaving behind an 8 week kitten playmate. (We got the kitten on your advice that they should have a social mate, and it enriched luna's life so much in the time they spent together.. we are so glad she had a friend before she passed). We went back and adopted one of the kitten's siblings, and have been watching them grow and develop through some of these stages ever since. They are both 12 weeks atm. It was incredibly hard losing our adult girl who had been an incredibly close and loving friend, and I am a little over cautious and nervous with these new kittens as a result of that experience with our adult. Your videos have been incredibly helpful giving tips and helping me understand the behaviors I am seeing (they are wrestling as i type this). I just want them to have the best and happiest life I can give them, and your videos help me do that. I think Luna would approve.

@Lunasera 3 года назад

I have to admit my cats never had a designated feeding or playing time, toys are always reachable and dry food is always out. They regulate their feeding themselves (of course I measure how much they get but they tend to ration it themselves through the whole day) and toys get put to the side if not used but they can always access them. Never had any problems, my cats are balanced and calm (aside from one of them hating me being in a different room if I'm home). When I see they want to play I get their toys and engage them otherwise it's lots of cuddling and sleeping. And yes, my cats DO know how to hunt properly. Aside from growing up with an older cat that was an avid hunter they love playing with toy mice and destroying them.

@thegworld3276 3 года назад

Ever consider feeding wet food or even better raw?

@nardalis4832 3 года назад

About the topic of food, my outdoor/indoor cat always had access to dry food(in a dispenser with lid sort of) and water, but wet food 2 times a day. I don't know if he really ate anything out there, he did bring in mice but he would never eat them, just play with them.

@sew_i_did5257 6 месяцев назад

Can confirm the wild child stage! We just adopted a five month old kitten after losing our 18 year old girl, and JT (for Captain Kirk) is a WILD CHILD. We're into the demonspawn kitty stage. I've had only senior cats since 2015ish and have quite forgotten what the kitten stage is like. JT has claimed all the stuffies in the house because those are better for him to chew on than my hand/arm/leg/whatever. Jackson Galaxy's My Cat From Hell series was hugely helpful in understanding the behaviors at the shelter amd now JT's sundowner hyperactivity.

Thanks Cat Daddy 🥳 2 weeks ago I reduced a 5 month old orange male from the scary outside!! Took time to gain his trust but I finally did. So now I have a 5-6 month old in my home (which is not large) w TONS of cat toys, a cat tree near a window w feeders outside and lots of the fishing pole wands w feathers at the end. No small bells though. Those can be a dangerous choking hazard or they can get their nails caught in them. Not good. Plenty of healthy wet food and 2 cat boxes. From what I’ve gathered from this video … I’m in for one hell of a ride for the next several weeks 🎉 He’s only 5 months and already crazy as heck!!! Thanks a lot for the videos and advice Jackson 🏆🥇 They’ve helped a lot already!!
