When kittens are small, I like to keep them in a playpen during the night, when no one is home, or when I am unable to keep an eye on them. Be sure to put a bed, water, dry food, and a litter pan in with them.
Kittens are curious and small. Kittens stick their paws in door jams, climb under radiators, fall down stairs, walk through cactuses. Be sure to keep them safe so they can grow into a much more cautious cat.
Children
Children
Young children should always be supervised when they are with any animal, including small kittens. Not only can they harm the kitten, but the child can also get scratched.
Other Pets
Other Pets
Make sure to properly introduce your kitten to other pets in the home and don't leave them unsupervised until you are certain there is no chance of one harming the other.

Forever Home
Forever Home
I trust that you will do everything in your power to always provide your animals with a forever home. If you find yourself in a position where you can no longer care for your cat, call the adoption agency you adopted your cat from or try to reach out to the foster family for help. You never want to give the animal away to a stranger. If you must bring your animal to a shelter, ensure it is a no kill shelter. Adult cats can be difficult to adopt out and shelters are crowded. Even the nicest shelter must euthanize due to space and you would NEVER want that to happen to you beloved family member.
