Kitten-Proofing Tips
Kittens are curious explorers! Secure electrical cords, remove toxic plants, and block access to small spaces where they could get stuck. Check that windows and balconies are secure.
The First Week
Allow your kitten to adjust gradually. Start with one room and slowly introduce them to other areas. Maintain the same food and litter initially to avoid digestive upset during this transition period.
