Hello everyone!! About three weeks ago, I visited my uncles for a bbq. There he had a 4 week old kitten who had been dumped in a trash can at my aunts work. She brought the kitten home. Now, knowing my family, I insisted and waged war all night about taking her home. At my uncles, she was 100% going to die due to predators and lack of food (they didn't seem to be feeding her). There, she'd be outside and vulnerable.
I took her home, and kept the name my cousin called her, Azura. She's very active, eating, drinking, using the litter box perfectly, and been to a vet with another appointment for her shots. But she is so... Quiet? Never meows or cries or makes noise. Only time she does is when she screams at my tiny dog to groom her (and Princesa does, very lovingly).
My questions, however, are these!! She's about 7 weeks now. Is there anything I can do to teach her about being a cat? If that makes sense? She has no mama or littermates to teach her things. What sort of behavioral issues might she have from being abandoned so young? If any, can I help prevent or lessen them? Thank you so much for your time!!
