Hello and thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Very sweet and happy kittens :) Kittens start slowly opening their eyes when they are about 1 week old. Initially, the eyes are blue and they cannot see very well. The eyes should be fully opened when the kittens are about 12-14 days old. Kittens try to walk as soon as soon as they are born but they become fully mobile when they are around 3 weeks old.
