1) Because most people make this assumption, they make little or no effort to
train or socialize their cats. When someone gets a new puppy, they usually
can’t wait to take him out and about to introduce him to all the wonders of the
world. However, when people get a new kitten, most do not even consider
giving her the same opportunities.
2) Unfortunately, most people are unaware that kittens have an earlier
“easy learning window” than puppies and miss out on this wonderful growth
stage. The truth is that most cats are not given enough novel experiences and
learning opportunities in kittenhood to prepare them to respond happily to new
experiences and interactions with humans. This can result in adult cats who are
frightened, confused or de-motivated by new things. Unfortunately, those cats
often remain housebound.
Kittens learn about social interactions and form opinions about their world very
early. Age 3 to 8 weeks is the optimal time for kittens to develop social skills
with other cats and people. Gentle handling by a variety of people, including
children, brushing and tender examination of body parts are all very beneficial.
From 9 to 16 weeks, your kitten continues to learn how to interact with her
world. Social play is very important in this stage. It’s also the right time to
give your kitten numerous chances to experience safe, new places and fun
experiences. These good encounters literally create “learning pathways” in the
brain, which ensures that your cat will continue to easily accept new things in
the future.
Starting at 6 to 8 weeks, and continuing through 16 weeks of age is the perfect
time to introduce your kitten to outdoor fun using the Easy Walk ™ Cat Harness &
Lead. If your cat is in this age range, congratulations!
If your cat is older, do not despair! In fact, many cats do not join their new
families until they are well past kitten hood. After 4 months of age, your
cat can still learn to truly enjoy new experiences, but the process usually
requires a little more patience. It’s important that the entire procedure includes
happy associations with things that your cat loves or enjoys in order to be
most successful. With a little bit of planning, you can introduce your cat to a
wonderful variety of safe and pleasant experiences – and the Easy Walk ™ Cat
Harness & Lead will make it easy and fun for both of you.
