Hi, I have a 7 months old kitten, I rescued him when he was barely 10 days, so all he has known is life with us at home. We play with him about one or two hours a day, but lately he's growing more and more restless, and he doesn´t like the old games anymore. He doesn't care for balls, or sticks with feathers or plush, he doesn't care for his old toys. There are only two he likes to play with now, the very first Kong plush, and an old little blanket which he tooks with himself wherever he goes. Lately he sleeps most of the day and he wants to play around midnight, normally hiding and stalking and jumping on us. We stop playing with him when he gets too excited because sometimes he hurts us even if it's not his intention. We bought him balls with batteries and lights, electronic gadgets, plush mice of all shapes and sizes, and still he's always frustrated because he doesn't like the games we are playing with him.
We plan to have him neutered in December as the vet advised us. Will it reduce his energy? A friend of mine is adamant that we should adopt another kitten, so that they could play together.
I would really appreciate very much your advice since this is my first kitten, I was more of a dog person, but when I saw him so small and so vulnerable I knew I had to take him home.
