🐾 Guide Description: Kitten Pediatrics (in English)
Kitten Pediatrics is a detailed guide for breeders and kitten owners based on seminars by the School of Thoughtful Felinology (lecturer: Galina Chilikhina). It explains how a kitten's body develops from birth to around 4 months of age and why this period is so critical for health monitoring, nutrition, and disease prevention.
This is not just a “feeding and vaccination chart,” but a deep, system-level understanding of:
How kittens differ from adult cats in terms of physiology, immunity, and metabolism;
How to detect early signs of developmental problems;
Why standard treatment and prevention protocols often fail for kittens;
How to prepare the immune, digestive, and nervous systems for adulthood.
Perfect for:
Catteries that aim for a conscious and responsible approach to raising litters;
Owners who want to minimize disease risks;
Anyone seeking not just “what to do” but why the kitten’s body works the way it does.
