Kitten Behaviour Explained: A Vet’s Guide to What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

Kitten behaviour can feel confusing, even chaotic, especially for first-time kitten parents! In this video, Dr Teagan from Pet Circle decodes kitten body language and explains what’s normal kitten behaviour, what’s not, and how to respond. You’ll learn how to ‘speak kitten’ using their tail position, ears, eyes and posture so you can build trust and prevent behaviour issues before they start. Dr Teagan covers the signs of a calm, happy kitten, play and hunting cues, scratching and biting (and how to redirect it), warning signs in scared or worried kittens, and how to set up your home with cat trees, hides and safe spaces so your kitten thrives. Whether your kitten is brand new or still settling in, this video helps you understand exactly what they’re trying to tell you.
