Raising a newly born kitten is a very joyful thing, but it also brings many responsibilities. To ensure the pet’s health and happiness, the following explains how to raise a newly born kitten from the aspects of environment, diet, exercise, and more.

1. Environment

Newborn kittens have fragile intestines and are sensitive to environmental changes, so they need a comfortable environment. First, keep the home clean and avoid any strange odors to prevent affecting the kitten’s respiratory system. Second, pay attention to the home's temperature, maintaining it between 20-25 degrees Celsius, and suitably increase humidity to make the kitten feel as comfortable as if in a forest.

2. Diet

Newborn kittens sleep a lot, with part of the time used for digestion. Therefore, their diet should be reasonably arranged to ensure they are adequately fed for nutrition and energy. The primary diet for newborn kittens is milk, which can be provided through the mother cat’s milk or purchased milk powder. It is worth noting that when the kitten consumes a certain amount of milk, dry food and drinks can be gradually introduced to help them get used to ordinary food.

3. Exercise

Newborn kittens have weak exercise abilities and need frequent exercise to strengthen their physical fitness and improve immunity. You can stimulate their agility through games and toys, and set up some training to enhance their awareness. Additionally, to ensure they get enough exercise, regularly provide them with space to move freely and let them exercise in a natural environment.

4. Health

The health of newborn kittens is the most important thing. Regularly check their body temperature, heartbeat, eyes, skin, etc., and conduct regular physical exams to detect any abnormalities early for timely treatment. In addition, their vaccination is very important and should be administered on schedule to prevent viral diseases.

The above is an introduction on how to raise newly born kittens. Although kittens can easily blend into a family, thorough preparation is needed to provide them with a comfortable environment, reasonable diet, sufficient exercise, and health care so they can grow stronger and healthier.
