Not all cats belong to recognized breeds – in fact most household cats are crossbred.
But as long as you choose a kitten that is lively, has bright eyes, clean ears and a soft coat, you will own a happy, affectionate pet.
All kittens need grass as part of their food, so if you haven’t a lawn, a clump of grass in a pot will do.
Many people forget that a cat, especially one with long hair, needs combing and brushing, so start early with a kitten and it will soon come to love your attention.
