Kitten wont sleep! Help!?

Question

The new kitten I got wont go to sleep at night! She is always awake and she always runs around and makes noise! It annoying because i think she might hurt herself and she doesnt let me sleep! She sleeps for about 3 minutes then goes crazy. What should i do?

Answer 1

cats are nocturnal creatures so that's normal don't fuss over it its bad for there health animals are lucky like that its all built in. we just have to love and feed them.  

Answer 2

cats have their own little schedule, she is just sleeping when you don't know it

Answer 3

Keep the cat active during the day by playing with it.  I have a laser pointer that was sold at a pet store that wears out my cats.  The playing around at night will die down once the cat gets older.  

Answer 4

realize it is great practice for when you have childern.

keep telling your self" this only lasts for 6 months" over and over.

cats are nocturnal. because they are domesticated, and live in packs in the wild, they adjust to our

schedules, and sleep at night. but not until they are adults.

sorry.

get up and play with him.

give him lots of toys, paper bags,strings tied to door k***s, boxes, tunnels and caves made out of blankets, furniture and closets.

another kitten for him to pay with will keep them from bothering you, but it will be twice the noise as they run down the hall, across the couch, and up the drapes.

Answer 5

Get used to it.  Cats like to prowl around at night.  They like to sleep during the day.  Much like a baby.  

Answer 6

at night put her in a pen inside where she can't get out of and put in a bed with a hotwater bottle and a ticking clock. See if that works try it for about a week.

Answer 7

Honest to God, your kitten will get through this phase. Kittens go from cute, fluffy, clumsy furballs to h**l-on-wheels older kittens before settling down to become dignified adult cats. You might get a cat tree with some toys on it and then put it in another room. Or play with her a lot before you go to bed in the hopes of tuckering her out so she'll sleep. Or put a little bit of homeopathic calmative in her water, like Good Cat or Rescue Remedy, so she'll be a little less frenetic.

She sounds like a normal, healthy, happy kitten!

Answer 8

Lol, just be patient and play with her a lot during the day. She'll calm down soon.

Answer 9

1.She's a nocturnal animal.

2.She's a baby and has a big new world to explore: your house.

3. As time goes on, she'll adjust to your schedule.

4. Meanwhile, play with her in the daylight hours and love on her, and put ear plugs in when you go to bed... or play soft music..

5. She'll be fine.  If she hurts herself, she'll let you know... with a blood-curdling scream that will lift you out of your skin.

Answer 10

Maybe shes hungry.
