[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where'd you get them? Were they socialized and handled by humans from a younger age (at least by 5ish weeks)? Were they from the same litter or a bonded pair? Sometimes that makes them less likely to bond to humans.

Kittens are crazy for sure and probably only cuddly when sleepy. I'm sure they will warm up to everyone! But please please don't get them declawed. It's so cruel, painful, damages their paws, and if they were ever to escape outside they'd have no way to protect themselves.

There is no such thing as a socialized kitten. They are crazy balls of needles for the first several months.[/quote]

What? Certainly you aren't implying there's no difference in behavior between an 8-10 week old kitten who has had little interaction with a human (maybe from a rescue or pet store) and one that has been handled from a few weeks old or even sooner...? Socialized doesn't mean well-behaved and genteel, it just means they are uncomfortable with or fearful of humans and their environment. [/quote]

Meant to say NOT uncomfortable with humans [/quote]
