My friend's cat recently had 6 kittens (3 sets of twins). I decided to take on a boy & girl; so they each have a playmate & that long lasting bond. I will receive them when they are 5-6 weeks old, since the first couple weeks I know they are getting nursed by their mother. I just wanted to know can two kittens sleep in the same bed or eat from the same food bowl during their first year??? Just trying to learn any kind of info as far as preparing for their arrival etc in a couple of weeks....PS. I'm also not sure of their breed, neither does my friend; so would a vet be able to determine that?? Because it's one of the questions that's asked when I acquire medical insurance for the kittens.
