Kitten Eyes Completely Open after the First Couple Weeks. The kittens' eyes will gradually become wider after the first week or so of her life. They will continue to open further until somewhere between two and three weeks of age, at which point they will be open completely. A kitten's ears will also open about this time, but her eyes do open first, meaning that she will begin to develop first her sense of sight during these first few weeks of life.
Baby hamsters' eyes will open when they are 14-16 days old. At this time, you can begin handling them for short periods of time. (Make sure that you don't touch the babies at all until they are at least 14 days old-if you touch them, the mother will stop feeding them.).
