Kittens have very sensitive hearing and are generally sensitive to changes in their environment. Hence the aversion to loud noises, such as arguing or construction noise. The kitten cannot identify why it suddenly becomes louder and usually react to this with stress or withdraw, sometimes even fear. The vacuum cleaner is an enemy for many, as it is also loud and, from the pet's point of view, cleans their favorite places completely unnecessarily. Only the most relaxed representatives of the species accept such background noises calmly.
Many kittens are afraid of water. That's why bathing is one of the things most of them hate. Usually, this is not even necessary, because kittens keep themselves well clean after they reach the age where their mother does not clean them anymore. However, if the animal comes home dirty or can no longer keep itself clean due to injuries, a bath makes sense.
8. No kitten-friendly environment
Sterile facilities or modern, void apartments are not appreciated by young cats. They prefer lots of crooked corners or opportunities to withdraw, play or climb. If this is not taken into account when setting up their home, the kitten may look for other, less desirable opportunities to occupy itself or to cuddle up out of boredom. So you might suddenly find your pet in the back of the cupboard, or on the tall design chest of drawers.
Kittens love their freedom and don't understand if you hold them against their will or squeeze them too much. They also don't appreciate it when you push and shake them. Carrying the kitten on the neck should also be avoided at all costs. Little kittens are carried like this by their mothers. However, as they get heavier, this can cause health problems. It goes without saying that harsh forms of punishment are taboo.
