Newborn kittens hissing

Sometimes happens when I turn on the lights or when mama cat isn't around.

[@thegriffin88]

It's so cute when they have no teeth. To anyone concerned: They will do that to anything that doesn't smell like Mom because that's their only defense.

[@StarFyreXXX]

Haha. Defense

[@noname-y8y-シ]

Yes I can confirm this is true

[@noname-y8y-シ]

@@StarFyreXXXbi*ch they are newborns they can’t even walk or stand or even run. They don’t have teeth. They don’t know how to use their claws. Ofc they have no defense

Can't see, can't hear, can smell. Not mum smell = hiss. So cute.

[@sagarjaiswal3626]

They can smell

[@ARandomNope]

not sure what it is about this comment, but at first glance I had an optical illusion of them saying ", can't smell." instead of ", can smell."

well yeah they kinda have to if they're born in the wild

It's simple math really: Mom = good, no hiss Not mom= bad, hiss to threaten

[@H_3_R_0-]

Imagine just existing and people are willing to do anything to protect you until their last breath.

Aw! The kittens are hissing for the first time!😻

[@HypeFox]

They look so cute

[@krychur4956]

I've raised many liters of kittens in my life, and I have to say that this is one of the most adorable stages. they hiss because they cannot see and only rely on smell. I was usually with the mother while she was with her kittens, so they were pre-occupied and the mother wouldn't get defensive towards me, so it was rare I saw the kittens hiss. likely because I had their mother's smell on my body as I watched them. once it gets to the point where you can touch them, they grow to recognize your energy and voice, so they likely won't hiss at you once you start to pet them.

Not big a a min and hissing like a big cat. So cute.

[@RealBelisariusCawl]

My little guy did the same thing when he was a newborn. He grew up into the most cuddly sweetheart of a cat I’ve ever seen. At this stage, everything that isn’t Mom is terrifying. The world is new and cold and scary.

Thank god thats normal. I just got two kittens and one of them was making that same sound, i wasnt sure if it was hissing or if it had a small piece of plastic or something stuck in its throat, it worried me like crazy ha. But hes still jumping around having fun with his new toys.

that's breathing problems, likely contageous and chronic

[@georgiag1902]

Not always. Newborn kittens are born with the instinct to fear and hiss at any scent that doesn't come from their mom. Kittens learn to accept other scents as they grow older and open their eyes, and realise that certain scents aren't threats. Considering the age of these kittens, it's very likely they just aren't accustomed to different scents yet and have yet to realise this persons scent isn't a threat.

It has its eyes closed and it can't see if you turn your back so they don't know if you turned your back, thus not wanting to eat us (plus they don't have teeth to eat us and we're too big to fit in their tummies

That’s how my boy was when I found him as a wee lad next to his run-over dead mother. Half dead and just hissing, waiting for death to take him. But I said no. Picked the whole mess up, dead mother included and ran to the vet which was thankfully just down the street. Mother was pronounced dead but the baby survived. He is now 14 and the cuddliest fella

This haven't happened to me when my tuxedo had her kittens. Probably because my hand had her scent on it or the babies caught my scent when I was petting her. She's 12 to 13 years old now and still as stubborn as she was when she had her babies.
