I know kittens are all fun and games, and then they eventually "grow up" and aren't as interested in playing. I'm wondering when that happens. Willow mellowed out when she was... hmm... Well, she never really played (what a meanie she was! lol) but she mellowed out to some degree when she was about 6-9 months. Our previous cat, Grizzly, was with us for 8 years (11 years this year) so i don't remember when he "mellowed out."
Why do I ask? Well, just curiousity, plus Buffy, who turned 1 year old last month, is as feisty as she's ever been. Just earlier today, she was attacking my toes like you wouldn't believe, and then did a "zoomie" around the room, did a "batman" jump on Willow, did another zoomie, and went back to attacking my toes. She's always ready to play, no matter what she's doing, and she always drops what she's doing if you jingle her little mousie (the one thats attached to the string thats attached to a wand). So... Surely there are alot of cats who're still kittens at 12 1/2 months, right? lol! How about cats who gained energy when they were spayed (or neutered)? Buffy is so strange... (but I wouldn't trade her for anything, lol)
Yup... Just another random question that comes up...
