well my kittens are 12 days old and both have their eyes open. the last one has had her eyes open for about 3 to 5 days now. i know you are supposed to keep them out of bright light but how long until they can come out of the dark? The place Kitty chose for them is in a room that is behind my moms closet and we cant keep the lights on in there or it will catch fire but there are no windows so when the lights are off it is pitch black. is it ok for them to be in the dark like that? (does my question make sence?)
