The reasons for this behavior of kittens can be summarized as follows:
1. Respiratory system problem: The cat's respiratory system is underdeveloped, and there may be some discomfort when inhaling air, so stretch your neck and open your mouth to relieve the discomfort.
2. Adapt to the environment: When the kitten adapts to the environment, it may feel uncomfortable or nervous, and at this time there will be a similar hiccup phenomenon.
3. Express emotions: When cats get along with their owners, they may also express their emotions through this behavior, such as excitement, curiosity, surprise and so on.
In short, it is normal for a kitten to stretch its neck and open its mouth like a burp, so don't worry too much in most cases. If the cat's behavior is abnormal or lasts for a long time, it is recommended to consult the pet doctor in time to ensure the health and safety of the pet.
