When American shorthair cats are born, their eyes cannot open and their ears have not yet stood up. During the growth process, cats will go through several important stages, including weaning, learning and adapting to the environment, and physical development. At 1 month old, American shorthair cats can already begin to accept solid food because their teeth and tongues have developed well enough to slowly accept solid food. When 2-3 months old, cats need nutrition and careful care because their bodies are relatively fragile at this stage and require regular deworming and immunization.
When 4-6 months old, the cat's physical development enters a new stage, and kitten food can be used to satisfy it Adequate nutritional and energy requirements. When cats are 7-10 months old, they are in the later stages of development. They will not like to be alone, and they are more eager for the companionship and care of their owners, so they can interact and play with them more. The above is the growth process and precautions for American shorthair cats from childhood to adulthood. Of course, each cat has its own personality and characteristics, and the specific growth rate and conditions will also vary from individual to individual.
