Adopting a kitten in spring: What you need to know

by Lilou Bastet

Preparing the house
Create a safe space for the kitten with comfortable beds, toys, and a clean litter box. Make sure the environment is free from potential hazards.

Proper diet
Provide a specially formulated food for kittens that is rich in nutrients needed for their growth and development.

Socialization and veterinary care
Start socialization as soon as possible to get the kitten used to human interactions and other animals. Schedule initial visits to the veterinarian for vaccinations and health checks.
