The Fear Period in Kittens: Understanding a Crucial Developmental Stage

Kittens are bundles of curiosity and energy, but did you know they go through a critical phase called the "fear period"? This stage, typically occurring between 6 and 14 weeks of age, is a natural part of their development where they become more cautious and sensitive to new experiences. During this time, their reactions to unfamiliar sights, sounds, and situations can shape their behavior for life. Understanding and supporting kittens through their fear period is essential for nurturing confident, well-adjusted feline companions.
