If you’ve ever raised a kitten, you know that growth happens in the blink of an eye. Tracking “Tiny Milestones” helps ensure they are developing into healthy, confident cats.
Milestones to Watch For:
- The “Focus” Moment: Around week 3, when their eyes stop wandering and finally lock onto a moving toy.
- The First Groom: When a kitten stops just being licked by mom and starts trying to wash its own tiny paw.
- The “Calculated” Jump: The first time they look at a sofa, wiggle their butt, and actually make the jump instead of falling short.
The True Story: > “Our foster kitten, Peanut, was the runt of the litter,” says foster mom Elena. “He struggled to climb. We built a tiny ramp made of books. The day he finally ignored the ramp and made his first ‘big jump’ onto the armchair, our whole family cheered. It was a tiny milestone for a cat, but a huge leap for Peanut’s confidence!”
