What are the Typical Stages of Kitten Behavior?
Every kitten has a unique disposition and temperament just like every person does. However, just as there is a typical stage of human behavior during each growth period from birth to adulthood, there is also a typical stage of kitten behavior during the growth to an adult cat. Kittens start their first stage of kitten behavior at only two weeks of age when their mother begins to socialize them. Kittens learn about dominant and submissive behavior from their mother when they are two weeks old. Through her actions and tone of voice, she teaches them to submit to her demands at this stage of kitten behavior. By four weeks of age, the kitten struggles to be the dominant one over his or her siblings.
