Most cats are very clean and wash themselves constantly. In fact, a good clue to a sick cat is one who does not wash herself. That is cause for concern.

Self-cleaning/bathing/grooming are very important to a cat's health and well-being. It took our neurologically imparied kitty a lot longer to learn how, but she kept at it. She still enjoys chasing her tail trying to get at it... It's a very good sign that your kitty is taking care of himself.

my kitten is so laid back and almost lethargic looking, he doesn't eat much and only like to eat kibbles, everyday it bugs me the way he acts, the vet had done all sorts of tests, from ex-ray, blood test, fecal and tested fine, that's why i asked the above question for reassurance that he is still healthy, he had been to the vet so many times about loose poop and not eating before, he was very active when i got him 2-1/2 months ago, he still plays but not as much.

Maybe he's just bored....just needs some extra stimulation. Find out what captures his interest and use that as a toy for some active, stimulating playtime.
