When it comes to the weaning process of kittens you may find yourself with a lot of questions. Don’t worry, your vet is her to help. Ask your vet about a milk substitute for your kittens and what kind of food to give your kittens and the mother cat. During the initial phases of weaning, you should serve the kittens a milk replacer in a shallow bowl. Make sure you do not use cow’s milk as this might cause stomach upset or diarrhea. You will have to teach your kittens how to drink from the bowl by first dipping your fingertip in the milk and allowing the kitten to lick it. Show him where the bowl is and guide him to it. During the next phase of weaning you will want to add some moist cat food to the bowl until it takes on an oatmeal like consistency. Ask your best vets Cy-Fair about gradually moving on to wet food.
