7 week old kitten GROWLS at meal times
Hi again people
Poppys 7 week old baby has only just started eating solids in the last week, I havenoticed yesterday and today that when I put the food down both mum & baby go for it. The kitten swipes at mum to get her away then he hisses and growls and mum sits back until he has eaten what he wants then she eats the rest.....Is this normal behaviour?

Re: 7 week old kitten GROWLS at meal times
yes it is normal for kittens to do this,
 their just making sure their going to get the food as cats/kittens will step back when others start making noises and could be a dominance thing

Re: 7 week old kitten GROWLS at meal times
Yes this is normal, my dainty little snow who is the smallest of the bunch is very domineering at meal times!
They don't so much growl as make a singing noise - it's probably growling with a mouth full!

Re: 7 week old kitten GROWLS at meal times
Thanx all....very grateful for your advice.....i'm glad this is the norm, I was worrying he was turning vicious. It is only at feeding time he does it, he is sooo loving at all other times. He has been so spoiled too as he was an only kitty

Re: 7 week old kitten GROWLS at meal times
Nicki love,the time to start worrying is if she dons an sas outfit before each meal with a truncheon in each paw
ya do think how can that grumble/growl be coming from such a small creature
