Your kitten's year one milestones

Can you believe that your kitten is nearing their first birthday, and they are almost a grown-up!

Over the past year, they have done so much growing, learning, and exploring, and hopefully, you have had a fantastic time together as you’ve got to know one other.

So, what better time than now to reflect over this first year together and see what they have achieved - and if you have any photos of their milestones to share - we'd love to see them on our Facebook page! 

How many of the things on our kitten milestone list has your little one done?

• Become house-trained
• Chosen a favourite toy
• Learnt to come when they’re called
• Mastered a cat flap
• Made friends with another species – a dog, rabbit, horse…?
• Got used to having a brush

Kittens are endlessly entertaining and playful, and this shouldn’t stop when they become adults! Make sure that you continue to make plenty of time to play and interact with them as they get older – this will give them a happy and fulfilled life and ensure you have a lovely, lasting bond.
