When picking up a kitten under the age of a month, here are some basic parenting suggestions:
Diet: Kittens under the age of one month need a special diet and cannot be fed food for adult cats. It is recommended to use dry cat food or wet cat food specially designed for kittens. If there is no special kitten food, milk and a small amount of cat food can also be soaked and fed. As the kitten grows, gradually increase the amount of cat food.
Keep warm: Kittens under the age of one month need to keep warm and keep the room temperature around 25 degrees. If the indoor temperature is low, prepare a warm box with soft towels and hot water bottles in it.
Defecation: Kittens need to use a litter box for defecation. Dedicated litter boxes and litter boxes for kittens are available. Place the kitten in the litter box and gently press its body to let it know how to use the litter box.
Hygiene: Clean the litter box regularly, replace the litter box regularly, and clean the litter box regularly to prevent bacterial growth and bacterial contamination.
Vaccination: Vaccinate kittens at the right time to prevent disease.
