Kitten Sleeping Habits: [Trigger's story]

Kittens need more sleep than adults.

They spend their days frolicking and discovering, and they use up a lot of energy simply growing.

“Newborns can sleep as much as 90 percent of the day,”
Krieger explained. “Eight- to 12-week-old kittens can sleep 20 hours a day, but it depends on their activities. Highly energetic kittens may sleep longer.”

Don’t worry: If your kitten has a particularly fun-filled day of playing and exploring, he may need more sleep. “Kittens should play and explore,” Krieger said. “Play helps them develop muscle coordination and timing. Exploration also helps them discover and orient themselves to their environment.”

Be concerned: A kitten who sleeps almost all the time or seems lethargic or uninterested in her surroundings may be sick. Take her to the vet as soon as possible.
