I got this kitten yesterday she's 6 weeks old and I have some basic questions.
When I want to play around with her she likes rolling over, grabbing my hand with all 4 paws and chews my hand (softly) I know it doesn't hurt but I heard it's not good to develop this habit of chewing hands and was told to give it a straw. I'm a little hesitant on giving her a straw cause I'm afraid she will rip it up and swallow it so I was wondering if it's ok to give her the straw
She uses the litter box fine but I have litter box lining since I thought it would probably be easier to clean up but she tends to play around and hop around in the box almost like shes hunting something down, she also keeps scratching the lining, does that mean I should remove the lining or is it fine.
This one is a big one, I live in Australia I don't know much about cat food but the owner told me she's been feeding her "Purina Fancy Feast (Tuna, Prawn, Mackerel & Crab Flavour)" (adult cat food) with cat milk mixed in it (Whiskas). I saw online that kittens should be eating kitten food (duhh) due to nutrition reasons. However, I was wondering if I were to change to those food straight away would it cause diarrhea thanks.
Also any general cat care tips would help thanks!
