0:00:03 > 0:00:04MEOW
0:00:05 > 0:00:06MEOW
0:00:08 > 0:00:09MEOW MEOW
0:00:17 > 0:00:19MEOW MEOW
0:00:22 > 0:00:23MEOW
0:00:28 > 0:00:30MEOW
0:00:30 > 0:00:31MEOW
0:00:34 > 0:00:37Now that the kittens are eating solid food,
0:00:37 > 0:00:40they need to learn proper toilet training.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48The owner is putting down a tray and filling it with cat litter.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50This is the litter tray.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58What will the kittens think?
0:00:58 > 0:00:59What is it?
0:00:59 > 0:01:01I'm not sure.
0:01:01 > 0:01:02Ask Mum.
0:01:02 > 0:01:06Mum? Mum? There's a funny tray thing downstairs
0:01:06 > 0:01:09filled with something and I don't think it's food.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Let's go and have a look.
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Oh, it's the litter tray.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19You have to use it to go to the toilet.
0:01:19 > 0:01:23Ugh! I'm not using that. I'm off to play upstairs.
0:01:23 > 0:01:28I sense something exciting is going to happen.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30Look, I knew it.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34There's something coming towards me. Oh, what is it?
0:01:36 > 0:01:38And what's that?
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Why is that running away from me?
0:01:43 > 0:01:46What's that snaky thing?
0:01:46 > 0:01:48What are those?
0:01:48 > 0:01:51They're toys and they're being used to get the kittens
0:01:51 > 0:01:54interested in things they've never seen before.
0:01:54 > 0:01:59Like play fighting, toys help the kittens to react quickly
0:01:59 > 0:02:03and also teach them hunting and chasing skills.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Mum, Cleo, comes in to keep an eye on the kittens,
0:02:06 > 0:02:09but they're already having fun.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Are you ready to have some fun watching them? Yes?
0:02:12 > 0:02:13Here we go.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08You can see that the kittens are learning fast
0:03:08 > 0:03:11as they attempt to catch and um...
0:03:11 > 0:03:12SHE LAUGHS eat the toys.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18They also help to develop their speed, agility
0:03:18 > 0:03:20and, of course...
0:03:20 > 0:03:21balance.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22Ow!
0:03:35 > 0:03:40Oh, it's too much. I'm off for a rest.
0:03:40 > 0:03:44Mums, Coco and Cleo, are tired just from watching.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47So imagine how the kittens feel.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Yes, sleepy again. MEOW
0:03:50 > 0:03:51SCRATCH
0:03:53 > 0:03:56But the kittens have made such a mess
0:03:56 > 0:03:59that the cleaner has to come in.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Ooh. Aah. This is interesting.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19No, it's boring.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Ooh, time for a quick snooze.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30But there's another stranger in the house.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36This kitten is going to investigate.
0:04:43 > 0:04:44SNIFF SNIFF
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Ooh. Smells dusty.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Coco knows what it is and runs away.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Why? What is it? What is it, Mum?
0:05:02 > 0:05:04This is why...
0:05:04 > 0:05:10HOOVER SOUNDS MEOW MEOW MEOW
0:05:17 > 0:05:19HOOVER STOPS
0:05:20 > 0:05:24Oh, it's stopped. I hope.
0:05:25 > 0:05:26Is it safe?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Ooh! I don't know, but I'm sticking here.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33The coast is clear.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Are you sure?
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Yes.
0:05:37 > 0:05:38It's over...
0:05:38 > 0:05:41till next time.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46This kitten sees what the cleaner has done.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50Wow! Look what's happened! That's much better.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59There's only one thing to do after all that excitement...
0:05:59 > 0:06:00wash.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04Remember, cats like to clean themselves to get rid of dirt
0:06:04 > 0:06:07and keep their coats nice and shiny.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16Some are even learning to wash each other now.
0:06:20 > 0:06:27But sometimes it's hard to wash when all your sister wants to do is play.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Oh, go on, then. Have a play.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37I wonder what the kittens will learn about next time.
0:06:42 > 0:06:46Having a kitten is a huge, time-consuming responsibility
0:06:46 > 0:06:50and if you want an idea of exactly what's involved
0:06:50 > 0:06:54check out the Meet the Kittens page on the CBeebies website.
