Hello,

2 Months ago, I adopted a female kitten who aged around 1 month plus.
At first, it was very cute and adorable. However, as it grows up, she started to change and started to get naughty. It is her attitude who wants to walk around the house anytime she wants. So, if we want to sleep, we can only lock her up in our guess room and not her cage. It is fine. But, somehow, she is very active and she likes to climb here and there. She broke few glasses sometimes. Before, she like to bite our hands and foot. After we adopted another male kitten for her, she started to bully that kitten who is at her age. After a week plus, they became friend, but sometimes she will bully him when they are in the same cage. But she has less biting our hands. It is just that now, she like to climb here and there. And we're afraid to give her to anyonelse eventhough we can't stand it because we;'re afraid that new person won't stand it.

Hi Annfarhana92,

These are part of the natural instincts of cats. They respond on their environmental stimuli. There are issues that need to be addressed such as biting of your hands and foot. This particular behavior are due to teething stage, hence teething toys should be provided. 

Climbing, scratching are also natural instincts of cats as in the wild,  they love to climb trees and condition their nails. These are they biological make up hence, we suggest to offer them scratching posts or pads to meet these biological instincts.

Bullying with other cats are part of dominance behavior which are exhibited in a group of 2 or more pets.  It will wane once dominance is achieved. In due time, we suggest to have them neutered to minimize such behavior.

For other related information, please visit and talk to our Pet Care Consultants in all our PLC outlets.

Warm regards,
