Getting Started - Become
Mother Cat
Help your kitten
adopt you as family
Hand feed your
kitten to show you are the new "mom" who will provide food, water, shelter, play,
mental exercise and companionship.
Use one
finger to pet to pretend you are
mother-cat's tongue - grooming the kitten.
- Hand feed your kitten
kibble before every meal and in between meals.
- Teach your kitten that
only good things come from human
hands.
- Sit next to your kitten during feeding and gently pet and
talk to your kitten.
- To help
your kitten relax, let out a big sigh and release all your
body tension.
