The cat grows and develops rapidly 4-8 weeks after birth. At this time, its weight has reached 0.5-1 kilogram, and it has the ability to live independently - it can be weaned. This is the best age to buy cats.
If the cat you bought is too old, it will not be easy to establish feelings for the owner, often hide in hidden places such as indoor corners or under the bed, or fight with other animals in the home, or even escape. Therefore, generally, do not buy adult cats. But if you are too young, you have no ability to live independently, and if you are not well cared for, the kitten will get sick or even die.
Before buying a kitten, please understand the situation of the cat mother. Mother cats should have a well-proportioned physical development, be healthy and disease-free, and have a high nutritional level. Some people also like to buy the smallest of a litter of cats for their little babies, which is an unscientific choice. Because the smallest cat in a litter often eats milk or is insufficient, it causes early malnutrition and incomplete development, and the result is either inability to raise or prone to illness.
The cat's ears should be clean and free of secretions. If a cat often scratches his ears or shakes his head, it may be infected with ear scabies. The cat's nose should feel cooler and moist on the back of the hand, and there is no nasal fluid or secretions around the nostrils. The mouth is big, canine teeth are big, the edges of the teeth are sharp, the upper palate is black and gray, and the gums are light pink.
