Did you know that kittens are born blind and deaf? It's true!

Did you know that kittens are born blind and deaf? It's true!

When they're first born, their eyes and ears are sealed shut, and they rely solely on their sense of touch and smell to navigate the world around them. It takes about 10 to 14 days for their eyes to open and another week or two for their ears to fully develop.

But that's not all! Kittens are also born toothless. Their teeth start to come in around 2 to 4 weeks of age, and by the time they're 6 to 8 weeks old, they have a full set of baby teeth. These tiny teeth help them explore and play with their surroundings, especially when they're chasing after that spinning ball toy!

Speaking of toys, did you know that cats have a natural instinct to hunt? Even though our domesticated kitties may not need to catch their own food, their predatory instincts are still very much alive. That's why they love playing with toys like the spinning ball. It mimics the movement of prey and allows them to satisfy their hunting instincts in a safe and fun way.

It's fascinating to see how kittens grow and develop, from being blind and toothless to becoming curious and playful little furballs. And it's even more amazing to witness the bond between cats and their human companions. So, whether you're running a high-range cat shop or planning to open a top-range one, you'll be able to share these fun facts with your customers and spread the joy of feline companionship. 😺🐾
