After being neutered, it makes no difference whether the kitten is a male or a female. The age of the kitten
Breeders do not sell kittens until they are at least 12 weeks old, because the kittens need to be vaccinated against “Feline Infectious Enteritis” (FIE) and “cat flu” before leaving the breeder. That way the breeder can be sure the kittens are fully protected before going to a new home. The characteristics of the kitten
It is very important to own a breed that his characteristics are suitable to your lifestyle. Siamese cats, for example, are in constant need for attention and are not suitable for people that go out early to work and come back very late at night. How to groom the kitten
