Here is a day-by-day breakdown of when kittens typically open their eyes:
- Day 1-6: The kitten's eyes are closed.
- Day 7-10: The kitten's eyes start to open, first appearing as a small slit.
- Day 14: Kittens' eyes are usually fully open.
If your kitten's eyes have not opened by 14 days of age, it is important to consult a veterinarian as there could be an underlying medical condition.
