1.where should a kitten sleep:

when we adopt a young cat some people see their defenselessness   and think they should sleep beside us this isn't a bad instinct a well-groomed and dewormed cat will not pose a risk to our health  however kittens are very active especially at night  they can hinder our rest and it may set a bad precedent it's important you decide early whether you can allow your cat to sleep in the bed or if they need to have their own being changeable will not suit the cat if you prefer the cat does not enter your room it's best to set boundaries from the beginning always give them access to the litter box water and food it's understandable some kittens may feel alone and distressed at the beginning when taken from their mother so we want them to know we are near we can leave the door ajar or even keep them in a suitable place within the room so they know we are in the vicinity as they become more secure we can teach them to sleep in their own bed and keep the door closed

this is a decision which you need to make together but part of our responsibility is to be consistent if one day you let them sleep beside you and the next you don't it will confuse the cat at the very least you will have to endure days of meowing at your door as they petition you to enter on the other hand we don't recommend locking the cat up to sleep this can only lead to stress anxiety and discomfort combining to result in a lack of confidence you may ask where should a cat sleep the truth is there's no single answer this is why we provide you advice to get to know where your cat should rest so you can both be comfortable and they don't disturb us .
