Hi guys!
As many of you know, I have just gotten my kitten.:
Anyway, I was raised with kitten after kitten, but this is the first time I've ever had a kitten of my very own, which is completely depends on me.
I'm very much a researcher type personality, research is practically my major. My friend says that she thinks I might put too much credence into online research when it comes to kitty.
So, I wanted to ask all o you kitty owners this:
As a cat owner, what is your very best advice in regards to the care and keeping of kitties? What did you learn from raising your own kitten that you couldn't learn in books? Do you have any tidbits of advice that you find especially salient since having a little treasure yourself?
Thank you in advance, and "Bunny" is doing wonderful so far, and is curled up right beside me.![]()

I dont knwo why..i thoguht she would love me extra special and thin ki was her momma....but she did not like me at all. I had to give her away to another home becaue she just hated me. Luckily, she loved her new home and was treated very well..btu that hurt my feelings, ya know? Oh well....I did a good thing and she is living a good life.
Also, someone else mentioned this, but for the first month or so, do play with him/her a lot before bed, unless you enjoy 3 hours of sleep before being assaulted awake by kitten teeth and claws! I invested in a toy called a Cat Dancer (I think it's like $3-5 in Petsmart or Wal Mart) and it's one of the few toys that drive my cats NUTS consistently. It's just a piece of wire with some cardboard rolls attached on its ends. You hold it and it bounces around like a fly and the cats go crazy trying to pounce on it. My cats have done sommersaults, flip flops and all manner of gymnastics with this thing! They have a version that you can attach to the wall so the kitties can play when you're not home, but I found that didn't work so well for my crew (my eldest boy ended up ripping it off the wall from its sticky pad and "killing" it by shredding the cardboard thingies. Oops.) So there went that.
: her.
