Orphaned kittens:
If the kittens cannot be placed with another nursing cat, then the responsibilities related to feeding, care and learning must be taken over by the guardian. The following tips are an outline of what to do when feeding kittens. You should regularly check the hole in the teat so that when you turn the bottle over, milk drips out in drops. If the hole is too large, the kitten may choke. However, a hole that is too small may cause air to be sucked in. In addition, check whether the hole is not clogged. Sterilize bottles and teats regularly. After each feeding, the kitten's belly and anus area should be massaged to stimulate the urination reflex.
Supplementary nutrition:
When Kitty Milk is used as a complementary food for kittens staying with their mother, it is recommended that the smallest and weakest kittens be left to the mother to nurse, providing them with access to the additional benefits of mother's milk, and milk replacer food should be given to stronger kittens, in accordance with the recommendations below.
Amounts of food given to weaned kittens:
- 36 - 42 days of life: up to 4.0% of body weight = 40 ml/kg
- 43 - 49 days of life: up to 1.3% of body weight = 13 ml/kg
amount of milk for additional feeding for growing kittens and adults:
- Pregnant cats or lactating mothers, sick or convalescent animals: up to 1.3% of body weight = 13 ml/kg
Kitten weaning:
After the 36th day of the animal's life, the diet should be slowly changed to a more solid one, including minced meat, kitten food, etc. The amounts of Kitty Milk should be gradually reduced while the animal gets used to solid, ready-made food or home-prepared food + drinking water.
