Housing Requirements

Introduction

The kittens in your store should be placed in a housing unit that is large enough for them to move around freely; if space allows, a unit with multiple levels is preferred.

Most kittens do better in the company of their litter mates or other healthy kittens. If housing multiple kittens in the same unit, be sure it is large enough to accommodate them. Kittens kept in the same enclosure should be approximately the same size and monitored to ensure they get along well. An aggressive kitten should be placed in a separate unit.

The area or room where kittens are housed usually is called a kennel and the space where they live most of the time is called a housing unit or crate.
