Enjoy his soft, fuzzy coat while you can, because soon he'll shed his baby coat for the coarser hair of adulthood. With maturity comes many changes, and for your kitten one of those changes is his coat. Kittens are born with a soft, cottony-like coat to keep them warm and melt human hearts. Starting at around 5 months of age, your kitten may start shedding this soft fur for the thicker, tougher coat he'll carry as an adult. It usually takes about a month or so to make the change, during which time you'll find his baby fur coating your couch, bed and clothes.
However, any breeder who offers you a kitten younger than 10 weeks of age is not up on his or her research and doesnât have the kittenâs best interest in mind. Run -- donât walk -- from a breeder selling kittens so young. A kitten younger than 10 weeks of age is not fully weaned or socialized. Most are not fully weaned or socialized until age 12 weeks or older. While some kitten buyers believe the younger, the better and that an older kitten will not bond, this simply isnât true. Cats are not pack animals and are able to bond with new humans at any time through their lives, even into old age.
