2） 这么大的猫还需要喝奶，尽量不要給牛奶，宠物店Pet Smart, Pet Valu都有专门給6周前小猫的特制猫奶粉。八周后可以试试有机Lactose-Free的牛奶： 但要注意有无不良反应；
3）这么大的小猫可以开始喂专门給幼猫的罐头 － 因为小猫新陈代谢和大猫不同，一定注意选給6个月以内小猫的高品质的罐头；
4）这么小的猫还不一定会去猫盆上厕所，尤其到了新家。要慢慢来，允许小猫犯错误；
5）要是还没打针，去worm, 今早安排去vet
这里有个研究文章讲何时才能让小猫离开母猫的，a good read...very informative even to a long cat owner like myself:
- When raised in homes, kittens should remain with their littermates and the mother cat until
they are at least 8 weeks old. The mother should be allowed to wean the kittens gradually‟
(Case, 2003, p 124).
- All the evidence suggests that kittens should not be taken away from their mother until they
are naturally weaned, at about eight weeks. Separating a kitten from its mother earlier can
cause stress and behaviour problems‟ (Sundquist and Sundquist, 2002, p 110).
- Kittens should not be separated from their mother before seven or eight weeks of age.
…Totally hand reared kittens…may exhibit other adjustment problems‟ (Wright, 1994, p 29).
- If kittens are pedigree strains, they are usually kept by the breeder until twelve weeks of
age…However, if you have decided on a moggie you may well be able to take it home from
the time it is six or seven weeks old‟ (Bessant, 2004, p 111).
- Pedigree cats tend to go to their new homes at thirteen weeks of age, after a complete
initial vaccination course. Owners of non-pedigree litters won‟t be offering this…so eight
weeks would be the ideal time for the kittens to leave their mother‟ (Halls, 2009, p 29).
„Eight weeks is the optimum age for the non-pedigree kitten to go to its new home. In the
UK…pedigree kittens almost always remain with their breeders until they are at least 12
weeks old‟ (Neville and Bessant, 2005, p 16).更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
