he will just sit and stare at me with the biggest eyes ever (sometimes purring)

I am a new kitten mom and I am trying to raise her so that I can take her traveling with me. I'm trying to introduce her to all different sorts of situations to get her used to it. I was looking to see if there are any types of zoos or aquariums that people can think of where I might be able to bring a leashed cat? Any other fun ideas to bring a kitten, I'm open to as well. Already we go to Tractor Supply and Home Depot and things like that. I'm just trying to find other ways to acclimate her to life on the go.

Picture for tax. She's actually gotten really good about being in the car in her backpack.

Percival, the Siberian Kitten 😸

I got her 3 diff cat beds, comfy blankies
But alas she refuses to sleep alone. I had to train her not to nibble on my arms (by ignoring / stepping outside of the room for 30-50 seconds) she stopped after 3rd attempt.

She has only ate tiny amount of food, some treat and very little water

She’s gone potty and pee fine.

Is it normal for kittens to take time to eat, also should I try different foods?

I bought the best of the best, wet and dry food (that’s what PetValu people recommend, but she’s not munching on them) played a lot, warmed up the wet food tiny bit but no bite :(

This is my first pet. She’s 3 months old

My beautiful little baby

I found a kitten behind the office under a pallet. I took him home because I didn’t know what else to do. My husband and I have a dog, never have had a cat. We took the cat to the vet and they estimated him to be around 3 weeks old.

He had an injury, so we’ve helped care for his wound, fed him, and got him back to 100% health. We’re back and forth on keeping him, but it’s been almost 2 months since I found him.

We live in a house, and we’ve tried to make it kitten proof. We’ve bought scratching posts and cat towers. He was escaping the area we ended up making for him and got past baby gates/cat gates. We even went as far as installing a sliding door in the hallway to give the cat more space.

When we’re home, we try to let him downstairs with us and the dog to spend time. He wants to be in the same room as us, but is constantly trying to chew and jump and is destructive to furniture, etc.

We’ve tried training, redirecting, rewarding for good behavior. But none of it works. I’m so tired and defeated.

The newest issue is, he’s learned to open the sliding door. He’s probably around 11 weeks old, and this door is 80lbs.

Someone please offer any advice or hope that it will get better.

Cam and Crank going at it!
