Fun Kitten Fact - Did you know tiny kittens hiss?

Fun Kitten Fact!
Did you know newborn kittens hiss?
It looks dramatic, but it’s completely normal!

New babies hiss for the first couple of weeks because it’s their natural instinct to protect themselves before their eyes and ears fully develop. They can’t see or hear much yet, so a tiny hiss is their way of saying, “I’m small but mighty!”
​
Don’t worry — they grow out of it quickly and turn right back into sweet little purr machines.
Newborn sass is real, and it’s adorable.
