A kitten has mobility at approximately 2 hours old. After the mother licks the kitten dry (and this action warms up the musculature and gets the kitten's blood flowing) the kitten starts moving about in search of its mother's milk. While not upright and "walking" the kitten is moving. The ability of the cat to be mobile at such an early age probably stems from ancient times when cats of prey would move about to follow herds of animals. Withing days, the kittens are basically upright and mobile.
