Weaning Kittens

 

Kittens require a lot of care. If you’re knew to caring for kittens then talk with your vet to learn the best way to handle and feed the kittens and discuss a weaning schedule as well. Weaning is an important part of the process of preparing a kitten for his new home. Basically, weaning is the process of transitioning your kitten from mama cat’s milk or bottle fed milk to solid food. Your vet may suggest that the weaning process of your kittens began at around four weeks of age. Your kitten will most likely let you know she’s ready when she starts exploring her mother’s food and tries to nibble on it on her own. The mother cat should start the process of weaning from milk on her own. For orphans, you may need to start the weaning process around the third or fourth week of age.
