😍🥰 Momma Lynx done had enough of the games • A lynx kitten is a young, wild cat that is born blind and entirely dependent on its mother for the first few weeks of life. They are typically buff-colored with longitudinal streaking on their backs at birth and develop quickly, opening their eyes around 10-17 days old and beginning to walk by 3-4 weeks. Kittens remain with their mother for about 10 months to a year, learning essential hunting and survival skills before becoming independent . . . .
