How much sleep should a kitten get?
Newborn kittens will generally nurse every two to four hours and sleep the rest of the time, while older kittens will sleep a little less and be more active. Thanks for using ChaCha!

About Kittens
Kittens are baby cats. They are cute, get into trouble, and keep their eyes closed for the first week of their lives. They need constant care, as during the first several weeks of their lives they are unable to urinate or defecate without stimulation from their mothers.
About Sleep
Sleep is necessary for mammals and many other animals, in order to rejuvenate their bodies. During sleep consciousness is lost or reduced and we are less responsive to external activities. Most people need at least 8 hours of sleep per day in order to function at their highest level. Not getting enough sleep can increase the risks of cancer, heart disease, obesity and diabetes.
