Hi everyone! I'm a proud new kitten owner and also very new to this site. I have a behavior question for anyone who can help...
My 14 week old kitten ZOOMS all over the house. She starts off jumping all over the place and then runs from the bedroom to the living room, through the hallway, under the bed, under the couch--just ZOOMING all over the place. Meanwhile, her tail is flat up against her back. She usually just runs until she's out of breath and needs to lay down. She used to do it until she would actually start panting. Now, she's learned her physical boundaries and just does it until she's tired (not to the extent of panting anymore). Is this normal? I know kittens are very active and hyper...but is this jolt of energy normal? Is she trying to tell me something? Should I just sit back and watch her--which is usually what I do because I can't keep up with her little feet!
