How old should your kittens be to sell?

Answer 1

Kittens should be 12 weeks old when they can leave their mothers.

Sadly, too many kittens are taken away from their mothers too early, usually around six to eight weeks old (some kittens aren't even weaned properly at that age). They have had no chance to learn what behaviour is good or bad, and behavioral problems will become apparent as the kitten gets older which, often, are difficult to correct.

Kittens six to eight weeks old have not learned any important socialisation or behaviour skills yet, which kittens learn from eight weeks onwards. During this time kittens will learn how to play and interact with their littermates, mother and any other animals and humans in the house.

They will learn what behaviour is acceptable and what is not from their mother, and will learn how to play and share with their littermates. They will also learn about grooming and litterbox use at this crucial time. Most kittens are well socialised by the time they are twelve weeks old, and are very likely to grow into very gentle and affectionate pets.

The most suitable time for them to leave their mother at about 12-14 weeks of age.

Cats are usually calm and collective characters, but if you'd like to adopt a cat at a young age the outcome can be rather unpredictable.

Young Children

I recommend getting an older, more mature feline if you are an adult with children (specifically young children between the ages of 5-12). Adopting a kitten with children that are too young can result in a sort of emotional distancing between your/their relationship with the cat and it's future respect and personality towards you and your family. If you have your heart set on a kitten, ways to avoid raising an anti-social cat are as follows:

• Supervise the kitten at all times when the children are home. Keeping a close eye on how it is treated will show you whether or not you can keep it alone with them.
• Designate a certain area (closet, bathroom, etc.) that is "off-limits" for your children. This will also be the living-quarters for your kitten, so make sure you're certain this is the room you'd like.
• Arrange a schedule for play-time, so your children get used to distancing themselves from the kitten. If possible, allow the children to feed the kitten catnip as often as possible so as to ensure that as the kitten grows it feels safe, calm, and relaxed with your children (and perhaps, if practiced well enough, even excited and playful).

Adults

Getting a kitten or a grown cat is your choice, though it ultimately depends upon how much time you are willing to spend towards caring for your pet.

Kittens - You must spend approximately 5-10 hours a day feeding, cleaning, and playing with your kitten. If you fail to show it that you are a safe, nurturing, fun owner, it will eventually distance itself from you (especially as it grows). Getting kittens, though, will also mean that you will understand what they've been through and you'll know what to expect. Sometimes getting an already-grown cat means they can do unexpected things that you can't explain, ever.

Grown Cats - Grown cats are much easier to care for. If you adopt a calm, gentle feline, you will find that all you must do to care for it is feed and love it. As long as you spend time with them in gentle, relaxing methods, you'll always have a friend at your side. Imagine being a four-legged clump of fur that was just introduced to a completely new lifestyle; you'd feel pretty nervous! Try to take things like this into account when spending time with your playmate.
