Speaking of cats, many people like them very much, and some parents even keep three or four of them. But some friends may have doubts, should cats be raised as kittens?

As for why there are such doubts, there are probably two reasons: First, kittens are weak and prone to illness and require more care from their parents. Second, parents are afraid of raising a cat that is not close to them and cannot get along well with it. In fact, such concerns are unnecessary. Kittens or adult cats raised by others have their own advantages to a certain extent.

Kittens and adult cats have their own advantages

Such cats are usually adopted cats. Most of them already have basic personalities and fixed behavioral habits. They have their own independent living ability and do not require too much care from their owners. Moreover, adult cats generally have strong resistance and are less likely to get sick, which can give their owners a lot of peace of mind. Generally speaking, adult cats will not actively attack children, so if you have children at home, or you are usually busy at work and do not have more time to take care of cats, you may consider raising an adult cat.

Adult cats have the ability to live independently

Under normal circumstances, adult cats have their own basic personality and fixed behavioral habits. If this is different from the current owner's lifestyle, it will still cause some trouble to the owner.

The behavior is different from that of the new owner

Compared to adult cats, kittens are more likely to bond. Kittens are lively and active, more likely to rely on humans, and can quickly establish a relationship with their owners. Because there are no fixed behavioral habits and basic personalities are not yet formed, owners can train kittens according to their own lifestyle.

Kittens are easier to get close to people

Because kittens are small, their resistance is relatively low and they are prone to illness. In addition, kittens are very lively and may accidentally hurt their owners. Moreover, kittens need more companionship, and their owners need to play with them often.

Kittens are more likely to get sick

Although the problems encountered in raising kittens and adult cats are different, the happiness they bring is still the same. As cats follow their owners for a long time, the kittens will turn into well-behaved adult cats, and the habits of the adult cats will gradually become closer to the owner's lifestyle. So whether you are raising a kitten or an adult cat, they all have their own advantages.
