r/Kitten

Frankie (lynx point) with her brother Archie (tabby) always has to have the spotlight on her.

im the nick fuentes clip “I LOVE HER, BUT I HATE HER… BUT I LOVE HER”

Hello in this video today i am playing with my kitten and she always plays with me as well and get closer dont realise its near me, but if we are not playing not giving her treat she doesn’t come near us …sit,let us pet and touch. I got her last friday today i gave her food from my hand too she licked it first time and now she is playing with me but still if i stop playing and approach her she hisses and get away from me and my wife the same. Any advices and answers that she will be fine or no? BTW ENJOY THE VIDEO!!

This is Lord William Robert Piebald and he now lords over the other cats of our house but when he first came, I had to hand nurse him with kitten formula.

1st Picture: Lord William in the kitten enclosure.

2nd picture: I tried to get him to drink his formula from a bowl but it did not work so I had to hand feed him.

3rd picture: Lord William was always attacking his own leg so my wife felted him a leg toy.

She tried walking on the edge against the wall!

Merry is seeing what he can do to help out...

They were found abandoned, so unsure on what parents look like. Based on the ear shape, are they possibly Maine Coon or Siberian mix?

Is he chopped guys?

I just want people to see how cute our new kitten is. We aren’t sure on her mix of breed, predominantly Tabby I’m sure. Open to ideas ofc!

Can anybody tell i got kitten last Friday and she suddenly sleeps and suddenly she get this jumping and running around playful behaviour , so is it okay? Thats how the cats are? This is my first time having a kitten thats why i need to ask and also she just does every activity as you can see right now in the video but she doesn’t let me and wife come to her and touch her she just hisses when we approach her also will she be fine with the time?

He wants in the ham

hello friends! i (27NB) just today rescued a very young kitten (we think they’re about 3-5 weeks old) who was found outside all alone. i’ve raised kittens from newborns before, but never fully on my own, and i’m generally an anxious person— so i wanted to ask y’all for all the general knowledge on caring for such a young beast. chances are i know most of it already, but even if you think i might, please include it! i am a person who does best with clear instructions, so having other folks validate that i’m doing things right (or correcting me if i’m not) is extremely helpful. i’ve not had any issues with the baby so far, this is mostly preemptive bc i’m worried about doing something wrong.

for general info, i live in brooklyn, nyc, currently just me and my other resident cat (10F). i have a local vet and am planning on scheduling an appointment for the kitten soon. i’m not yet sure of the kitten’s sex (part of the reason for going to the vet) but they’re lively and noisy and seem to be doing pretty well! they’re weaning off of milk (eating wet kitten food mixed with milk) and the foster said the baby started using the litter box on their own. also the kitten is ofc currently quarantined from my resident cat.

TL;DR, i’m raising a very young kitten by myself for the first time and just want to make sure i’m doing everything i can to take care of them and raise them well.

please enjoy this photo of the little creature, and thank you!!!

Her name is mocha

On August 10th 2026, Purrsephany was accidentally caught in a live trap with her feral mother. I did not realize this until after I was at the Animal Birth Control Clinic.

So young Purrsephany under went a spay at a very young age. I was worried about her but she was up and active right away.

Now every morning she comes to eat and drink in my backyard. This was her taken 08/18/2026.

Her paperwork lists her as a ticked Torbie.

Love my little wobbler

My kitten (Forest) is 15 weeks, physically tiny and mostly very calm. When I first got her at 11 weeks, she was quite cuddly and would sit on my lap a little bit. As she is getting older and more used to the flat and older cats, she distances herself and sleeps in corners, not around me.

To help her, I play with her a lot, especially across my lap. She really enjoys that and jumps about on me and we practise hunting multiple times a day. I also have her leash trained (she never rejected the leash), and we go for walks in the forest where she sits on my arm (she’s not fully vaccinated yet) and will watch the trees go by. She will sleep on my lap outside, but, strangely, not inside the flat.

Is this normal kitten behaviour or a sign that she doesn’t like the outdoors/indoors? She’s also started sleeping on my arm at night very briefly if it gets a bit cold (it’s currently summer in the uk and she’s long haired). I’d ideally love to keep taking her out for walks, handling her and giving her stimulation as she’s an indoor cat, but I’d also love to help her be more cuddly at home too.

Does anyone understand the two personalities I’m witnessing with her? I’m not very good at reading social cues (including animals, unfortunately), so I’m doing my best to help her be well rounded and enjoy her life while also nurturing our relationship 🥹

So, I'm a lifelong dog owner, definitely a 1st time kitten owner, maybe/probably a 1st time cat owner. I've had barn cats before. But indoor kittens are a whole new ballpark for me and my family. My two kittens, a brother/sister combo are approximately 5 weeks old. One, the female, has been trying to eat dog kibble. They still act like the water bowl is a demon. Should I get them dry food? Of so what? How?
